Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/author/sadje19/ Every morning, just as the stars were reflecting against the blue sky, Brian brought his lamp to the same spot. It was here, he could hold his arm up to the sky, and shine with the stars. They brought hope to an uncertain world. As the last star dwindled, his own lampContinue reading “Star Light”

Generation Gap
Written today for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/author/sadje19/ She walked these fields, since she was a child. One bucket for water, the other for food. A daughter, mother, sister and grandmother. She was all of these things. Time spent with her parents, learning off the best. They always taught her to love. It was the most important trait toContinue reading “Generation Gap”
Rule Breaker
This week’s prompt https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/author/sadje19/ I’m not sure how to answer this question, as I am not a big rule breaker in general. Even during Covid, I stuck to the rules, didn’t meet up with my daughter, even though she wasn’t far away. The rule was there to keep my family safe, so I wasn’t goingContinue reading “Rule Breaker”
Generation Gap
Written for the prompt https://lindaghill.com/2023/04/07/the-friday-reminder-and-prompt-for-socs-april-8-2023/ This week the word gen, has got me thinking about the different generations. My parents were older, so my nieces and nephews are near my age. My sister was sixteen when I was born, my brother ten. I don’t think I was meant to happen, but I was loved allContinue reading “Generation Gap”
Healing
Written in response to https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/author/sadje19/ Hovering, silently, above the calm, we wandered through time. Engines, heating the ocean, kissing the earth. A wandering race, healing the planet with peace in their hearts.
Be Patient
This week’s inspiration is from https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/author/sadje19/ I received your note, Love is patient, not proud or self-seeking. It is my record to myself, when I’m on my own, thinking I cannot do this alone. Today, the first day of my life where I was patient with myself. Training together, we walked the streets of StContinue reading “Be Patient”
Please Do More
Written in response to https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/author/sadje19/ I couldn’t explain to Giraffa why she was alone, or that a hunter took away her mother just because of the money he could get for her meat, pelts, bones. Even jewellery. With mankind heavy on my shoulders, I stared into her eyes, almost asking for some forgiveness. Not thatContinue reading “Please Do More”
Love
This week https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/author/sadje19/ question is; How do I show my love? I have been married for thirty-five years, so Valentine’s day isn’t all about flowers and cards. My husband shows his love by cooking for me, when I have been at work all day, making me a coffee, or the usual signs of affection. IContinue reading “Love”
Acts of Kindness
Another blogger https://sillyfrogsusan.com/author/sillyfrogsusan/ told us about a memory where a elderly woman was handing out roses, and kindness. I think that is something we are all capable of. Smiling at someone, and it is infectious. Hopefully that smile will be passed along, making their day better. There have been days when I couldn’t find theContinue reading “Acts of Kindness”
A Different Day
This week’s prompt from https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/author/sadje19/ Charlotte stood, hands in her pockets, deciding what she should do next. A mirror, but no ordinary mirror. It was said to be a window to another universe, a different time line. Maybe she could go back to 1912, when the Titanic sank, or to the start of the secondContinue reading “A Different Day”
