This week our question from https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/author/sadje19/ is What is a cause you’re passionate about and why? I’m passionate about the treatment of animals. When I was a child I used to have cats (Candy, and Fluffy) I didn’t much care for dogs. I was frightened of them. Now I have grown to love them too.Continue reading “Animal Welfare”

Colours in Life
If people get a purple heart for bravery, what do the other colours of hearts mean? (Make up your own heart meanings and colours.) It makes me think of poppies, Purple poppies are for animals who lost their lives, as red is for the human losses. White poppies are for those committed to peace. IfContinue reading “Colours in Life”
A Small Step
My three words today from Passivity 101 are:CROWDBUSYRUSH Busy, too busy for Sarah to manage at times. A crowd of people, who didn’t even know her, but that didn’t matter. Walking, all eyes on her, and she was in the middle of her nightmares. She had to find the courage to face the busy supermarket.Continue reading “A Small Step”
Zip, Zero, Zilch

Zip, zero, zilch, the amount in my bank account was clear, I needed to find a job and soon. Resorting to food banks to feed my family, the rent wasContinue reading “Zip, Zero, Zilch”
I Know My Job
Written for Thursday Inspiration #157 I know my job, losing Graham hasn’t change that. Listening to the constant chatter on the streets, something links his death, to my story. It is like Chinese whispers – one person saying something, which is told to another person, who was found dead in an alley. Scott, so young,Continue reading “I Know My Job”
Sisters
Clara was always the person to go to when Davina had a problem. They were always close, like the age difference didn’t matter. As they got older, only a phone call away. Hours talking about their family, someone to talk to, who understood. Young again, as if they were children reading Katie together. Learning herContinue reading “Sisters”
For Fibbing Friday
My take on questions from Fibbing Friday 1. According to the song, what colour is love? The colour of love is blue, like the tranquil sea, or the sky on a sunny day. 2. Who sang about a Green Door? The prime minister, he wanted to paint number ten green, but the voters wouldn’t allowContinue reading “For Fibbing Friday”

Bullets strewn across the concrete like the day the soldiers marched through the city. Innocent lives lost. For what?

Things I Don’t Miss
This week’s prompt fromhttps://lssattitudeofgratitude.wordpress.com/author/lssattitudeofgratitude/ is: Things I Don’t Miss I don’t miss being bullied – When I was a child at junior school, I was picked on because I was the quiet one. I rarely fought back, and would wear my emotions where everyone could see them. I don’t miss the school dinners – overcooked, cheapContinue reading “Things I Don’t Miss”
A New Experience
”Sushi, that’s raw fish, isn’t it?” Alan said, poking the food with his chopsticks. Elizabeth smiled, taking her dad to the Japanese restaurant seemed a good idea a month ago. A chance to try new things, but one look in his direction told her all she needed to know. ”Look try one, and I’ll tryContinue reading “A New Experience”
