For everything there is a season - indeed my dear friends, both here on WDC, Facebook and elsewhere in between.

This week was both hard yet uplifting. A lot going on in my own microcosmic world and beyond.

Besides that we are celebrating Christmas and Hanukkah πŸŽ„πŸ•Ž or Yule etc. there was sad news here of hearing of the sickness and then the passing of our dear writer friend Angelo Bikerider.

He was a good soul and good writer here. Early this year I was blessed to meet him,in the class Jim Hall invited members here to.
It was a great class that taught the difference between Showing the emotions of your character, rather than Telling.
During the middle of it, I was super sick and missed a lot.

Reluctantly I came back towards the end and Jim,Viv, Amethyst Angel and Bikerider all encouraged me to finish with them and not give up!
That was huge and why I love this community πŸ’–.
I hope to be able to include Angelo's final lesson in a future post. It was a super piece of writing and showed clearly the emotions of his character's in the Story 😊.

For me coming back to it this week,was difficult but worth getting to know more about this soul. I saw his photo and it was perfect for who he was in the outside world. Friendly and kind.
A man who loved his wife and family deeply.
During a conversation,he shared those words and that it helped him with his writing.

I could see it then and now so much more. I'd like to review it soon.
In my own realm, I've been adjusting to the reality of my age!
Hitting 70 is a big deal 🀝! Attitude is so important.
Commitment is another.
In some ways I'll never get better!
It sucks but what IS still working is what I need to focus on. The what CAN I DO, rather than NOT!

So tomorrow I start my five minutes of ballet πŸ©°πŸŽ‰! To keep my muscles strong, so they can help the crappy bones 🦴!

I started writing a vignette a month ago but dropped it, dealing with health management.
I picked it up this week and hope to have it finished this week, before the end of the contest πŸ˜€.
My sis talked me out of dropping out it .

It seems so much of my energy has been geared towards " getting better". And stomach issues these past few months.
Like having " morning sickness" almost every day, makes starting the day lousy, but making it out of bed and not giving up is my choice. And a blessing for which I give thanks to God G-d ( almost) every day πŸ™.

And for the people in my life ❀️.
It's hard enough getting older, but to be forgotten is the worst.


So I celebrate πŸ’ this day and Angelo's life. Whatever you celebrate πŸŽ‰ make it a meaningful day.
Blessing's y'all! πŸ˜»πŸŽ†πŸ₯°πŸ˜‰πŸ¦‹πŸžπŸ•―οΈπŸŒΉπŸŽ„πŸ•ŽβœοΈπŸ₯³πŸ§πŸŽΆπŸŽ‚πŸ’œπŸ‘ΈπŸŽˆ
