Daily Prompt: Aware
The world is going by way too fast. You have to pay attention to everything around you. It’s important to be aware of ones surroundings as to not get hurt or in trouble. Your senses are needed daily to keep you in tune with what is going on. Some things you just have to keep your eye on so you can be aware of the things that are happening in real-time. If we are not aware something good, something special can be forgotten and that is when sadness is the greatest thing you feel. Be aware because your life depends on it, every day.
Daily Prompt: Craft
You could say the work of ones hands could be considered a craft. Whether it be creating unique works of art or what they do in their profession crafts are something special. People craft everything from jewelry to clothing to decorative items. Beer enthusiasts take their time in making the right brew that is very different. Our craft is the product of what we do for a living or for the fun of it. It is a passion of some sort that we really enjoy doing.

Daily Prompt: Simple
It’s amazing how hard it is to do something simply. We all like to complicate things unnecessarily. You take a look at the most simple things and you wonder how that was made or conceived. Some of the best things in life are just a few humble things thrown together that can make something spectacular. Simple doesn’t always mean boring though. Keeping things simple can be a challenge though.
Something About Comments
Comments can inspire, enlighten, inform. They can also demoralize, hurt and wound. Sometimes a comment can reveal more about your readers than the post reveals about you. We have all made comments that in our head sound innocent but when it’s on a screen it looks like something else. We can use our comments to lift someone up or to tear them down when they don’t need to
The old saying if you can’t say something nice don’t say anything at all applies but is often not followed. What you say has weight and consequences. Everyone has said dumb things they regret and wish they could take back but it is also hard to put toothpaste back in a tube. Be sure to leave comments but choose words wisely. It’s always something about those comments.
