Freedom from an abusive relationship? Ten-minutes alone in the bathroom, away from your children? Moving out of your parent’s house? Freedom to vote? Freedom to choose? Freedom to accept and embrace your sexuality? Freedom to love or learn in an obtuse way? Freedom could be a pig let out of a pen, or a rescued dog. Perhaps a leaf, riding the back of a breeze…
This week’s challenge is the word: FREEDOM
Please note: I am posting this a day early because we are celebrating our son’s 3rd Birthday on Sunday! His actual Birthday is on Monday April 12th, but hubby and I are both working, so Sunday works best for our family. Thanks for understanding if I am a day or two late in my responses 🙂
The Rules:
- The style is completely open; poetry, prose, a single word…Go where the prompt takes YOU!
- Keep your submission to 500 words or less.
- Post it on your page, and TAG it Sunday Writing Prompt, SWP, MLMM, Mindlovemisery’s Menagerie. And be sure to leave a link in the comment section below.
- Feel free to use my photo for inspiration, or as your own cover image.
- Please have your submissions in by the END OF EACH FRIDAY (Pacific Standard Time). Every Saturday, I will post a “standout” piece in a post entitled, SATURDAY SPOTLIGHT. Bear in mind, it will be based on my personal opinion. If you are not chosen, that does NOT mean your piece was not superb.
- Be creative and HAVE FUN!
Please, take a moment and visit my recent selection for the Saturday Spotlight series, https://wordpress.com/post/mindlovemiserysmenagerie.wordpress.com/21564. Her name is Stephanie, and her fabulous submission dug deep and resonated with me, https://stephaniecolpron.wordpress.com/2021/04/06/sounds-of-love/
HAPPY WRITING EVERYONE!
Happy early birthday to your little guy!!!
