My project for 2018....Arlynn's Way
#942633 added October 4, 2018 at 10:31am
Restrictions: None
October 4 - General: Theme
Oct. 04: - General: Theme

(1) Theme. What is the theme (see below) or moral of the story?
From the list given I would say:
Need for change -- getting out of the City and away from unfaithful lovers and backstabbing friends.
Friendship - reconnecting with true friends who are both there for you and need your support
Love - this is in terms of friendship, but also in terms of a soul mate who is also a friend.
Those are the most highly valued in my story.
I could also add:
Belonging - finding the place that makes you whole.

(2) Resolution. Brainstorm ways you could resolve the conflict(s) within the confines of the theme. You are not required to identify a chosen resolution from your list of possibilities yet, so really think outside the box! Anything goes.
Changes generates additional change in that moving to Cottage Country and living a life that is almost completely opposite requires a learning curve. Good things and growth come out of the change. In this case, the change leads to all the other themes being met - friendship, love and belonging (close knit friendships and community).

NOTE: This list of universal themes might give you some ideas, but don't let it box you in. Feel free to add your own.
This list of themes is very cool.
