Journal Day Prompt #12


Here's this week's prompt:

Let's talk about love. Do you believe in the idea of a soulmate? Do you think there is one person for everyone- and do you think that no matter what, if you're "supposed" to meet that person you will? This week, talk about your experience with love and discuss what you believe, and also be sure to touch on what helped shape those beliefs.

I'll be back Thursday with my response, and that's where I'll ask you guys to share a bit from your writing in the comments, as well as a link to your post.

Weekend Links

 some of Hank's birthday donuts from last week - yum!

Happy Friday, friends! I am coming out of a little blog break and so excited to get back to it. I think sometimes all you need is some time away to re-energize and refocus. It was nice to be away from the computer for the past week or so but I miss it terribly, and I'm looking forward to restarting Journal Day tomorrow and starting the week off with my Palm Springs post. But first, here are some links. Enjoy!

Do female-named hurricanes need to lean in? Ha!

Such a good read. “Although my training tells me not to overuse exclamation points because they are shouty and juvenile, I find myself using them because I fear being seen as unfriendly or insincere if I only use a period.”

This was a fascinating read: Why I Miss Being a Born-Again Christian.
