Where is my teddy?

Midnight and the sound of baby crying

Mom turns on the light trying to open her eyes, glued together by sleep.

Daddy is sleepingpeacefully, not a stir from that side of the bed.

She goes to her room and is greeted by hiccups and heartbreakingsobs.

What is it my darling, why so many tears, mommy has tears in her voice too.

A smile flits across moms face.

She bends down and picks up the teddy bear from the floor near the crib.

Here you go my darling. The teddy must have fallen while you were sleeping.

PROMPT

The limitation this week is 100 words, though there is no restriction on the format. It can be prose, poetry, essay, reflections, reminiscences, anecdotes or anything you deem worth sharing.

What does this image invoke in you?

Taking the first step is very difficult in whatever field you venture.

All the negative thoughts start frightening you.

Then there is the fear of what people will say, Perhaps we are more worried about others opinion than our own capability.

No one actually bothers about you.

People have their own fears to fight with.

The only two-faced demon is your mind.

At first, it keeps you pestering with all the negative thought.

Once you make up your mind to go ahead, it starts helping you.

Hard work, perseverance, passion, and faith

opens the door of infinite opportunities for you.
