The Difference Point of View Makes

The sky is clear.
The light is dull, blinking and fading.
The shadows start to dance.
The road is messy with tires and feet.
The dog sees more people to go at.
The crow continues to exist.
Businesses see more evening opportunities.
The old man finds it hard to see.
The young laugh among themselves.
The young couple are happy to be with each.
The poor beggar just wants the day to end.
And I just walk and sip my coffee.
My evening walk feels uneventful, yet everything happens around.

Food for the Soul (and the Stomach)

There this place which opened some months ago some 15-20 minutes from where I stay called Take a bite, and they make really amazing chicken shawarma. The kind of place you fall instantly love in with. Being fairly new don’t have any links (that I’m aware of) to share for local folks here, or if anyone is visiting, but well this place is a must go.

Lebanese chicken with vegetable schezwan sauce (not the usual). Really food for the soul. (There are options for vegetarians too)

Game Rivalry

You’re set to play poker (or Scrabble or something else . . .) with a group of four. Write a story set during this game. Or, describe the ideal match: the players, the relationships — and the hidden rivalries.

I don’t play games on my phone, seldom when I do it’s this word puzzle game called Wordament. Otherwise, barely for this purpose, (I don’t even consider these as ‘games’ or ‘gaming’, nothing more than passing time without knowing what to do). Though just last night, something different occurred.

There’s this game called Chain Reaction which I played once and seemed fun. Not because it was a puzzle game requiring thinking too, but more of the game itself, how those bubbles pop and one move can throw sides upside down. Some friends I met last night, few of them have this contest among themselves. And among them, this one bugger took his own pride in being the champ with another lame win slogan which I didn’t bother remembering. But gotta admit, playing several times, teaming up and even with a four player match, that guy won every freaking time. Call it strategic thinking or just pure dam good luck (well he isn’t the brightest types, and so going to kill me if he reads this lol) 😛

Anyways, fun game. You should try it if you haven’t already on your phone. As I said, screw thinking, I just like those things popping around.

Connect the Dots

Scour the news for an entirely uninteresting story. Consider how it connects to your life. Write about that.

I don’t need to scour the internet for an uninteresting story, my life one so far would suffice *alas*

Meanwhile, every time I read about connecting dots, one of those things which come to my mind is this. Yeah, I know you must have seen it several times already, but once more won’t hurt, and will remind you what’s what. I mean seriously, just see it (again)

Marriage Isn’t For You

Seth Adam Smith's avatarSeth Adam Smith

Having been married only a year and a half, I’ve recently come to the conclusion that marriage isn’t for me.

Now before you start making assumptions, keep reading.

I met my wife in high school when we were 15 years old. We were friends for ten years until…until we decided no longer wanted to be just friends. 🙂 I strongly recommend that best friends fall in love. Good times will be had by all.

Nevertheless, falling in love with my best friend did not prevent me from having certain fears and anxieties about getting married. The nearer Kim and I approached the decision to marry, the more I was filled with a paralyzing fear. Was I ready? Was I making the right choice? Was Kim the right person to marry? Would she make me happy?

Then, one fateful night, I shared these thoughts and concerns with my dad.

Perhaps each…
