Funny Friday: Looking Back at 2013

It's Funny Friday! The January 3, 2014 prompt for "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS"  is
Look back on 2013. Read your blog entries from early last year and observe how you've changed. If you weren't blogging early last year, think back to that time and imagine what you would have been doing or thinking about. Now, write an article about your past year of life in the voice of a reporter. Remember: making your reader laugh is key, so this can be as outlandish and overblown as you are brave enough to do Have fun!

Over the past year, Prosperous Snow has had many up and downs, but she continues writing on going over, around, under, or through (which can sometimes be painful) any barrier in her path with the keyboard in front of her or a pen in her hand. After all, if you can't blog or write a poem about an experience what is the use of being a writer. Over the past year, Snow has learned many things, but the one thing she has learned to do is write on.

According to a January 24, 2013 entry the five strengths of snow are (1) Bull Headed Stubbornness, (2) creativity, (3) learning from her mistakes, (4) following her gut feeling, and (5) faith in God. I would add a sixth strength here to go along with her sixth sense and that strength would be writing on.

Though the wind may blow
and rain may fall
causing rivers to overflow:
Write on!

When the smoke alarm announces
that dinner is done...
Write on!

Writing is therapy
so Write on!

Thought of the Day: "Writing is a form of therapy; sometimes I wonder how all those who do not write, compose or paint can manage to escape the madness, melancholia, the panic and fear which is inherent in a human situation." - Graham Greene
