Garden Produce
all garden produce not just taste and nutrition a feast for the eyes. Note: Here you see a platter of guava, pea stalks, fenugreek, spring onions, calendula, and mustard, from the garden. I feel great just by seeing it. Encouraging ypu to try growing something.

Resist unholy Antidisestablishment- arianism XXXXXX For John and Paul's Three-Word Haiku/Senryu Unofficial Challenge Before anyone can issue a challenge to the form of my haiku, let me set forth my defense that NOWHERE in the rules do the worthy judges state that each line must consist ofa word. And I quote: "Must be a haiku/senryu consisting of just three words, following the usual syllable demands of 5-7-5."

The Day I Stopped Romanticizing My Pain
For a long time, I believed my pain made me interesting. It gave my stories weight, my voice depth, my silence meaning. I wore it quietly, like a badge only other wounded people could recognize. When something hurt, I didn’t run from it—I wrote about it. I turned it into metaphors. I dressed it in beautiful words so it would look intentional instead of unbearable.
