I’ve had trouble writing since the election. Then, when I stumbled on the prompt to write about the most horrible and hideous thoughts, I wasn’t sure what direction to take. Finally, I found something. I chose to publish and use the strikethrough font, as the writing directions were to draw a box or circle around the words to contain them or even tear up the page or erase the file. https://santuccisnippets.wordpress.com/2024/11/26/danger-zone/

Like most of you, I have loved ones with life altering events and illnesses happening amidst the holiday glitz and excitement.
I took a long walk the other day and as I watched the leaves blow softly from the trees, I felt a reminder to count my blessings. Here is my slice of gratitude.
