Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday with questions carefully chosen to help you collect stories in the oral tradition or spark your own writing. Either way, you’ll say, “Thanks for the memories.”

Hello to you listening in Kahramanmaraş City, Turkey!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday.

Perhaps like me you’ve looked at the many ups and downs of your life- especially the downs – and wondered what was it all for? How did they do me any good?

“Our lives are steered by uncertainties, many of which are disruptive or even daunting, but that if we persevere & remain generous of heart, we may be granted a moment of supreme lucidity – a moment in which all that has happened to us suddenly comes into focus as a necessary course of events, even as we find ourselves on the threshold of a bold new life that we had been meant to lead all along.” [excerpted from A Gentleman in Moscow, by Amor Towles]

Story Prompt: Step back a moment and consider: How did all those daunting episodes deliver me to the life I’m meant to lead? Write that story!

Practical Tip: The magic of stories is also in the sharing. If you wish share your story with someone or something.   All that matters is you have a story.

60 Seconds is your daily dose of hope, imagination, wisdom, stories, practical tips, and general riffing on this and that. This is the place to thrive together. Come for the stories – stay for the magic. Speaking of magic, I hope you’ll subscribe, follow, share a nice shout out on your social media or podcast channel of choice, including Android, and join us next time!
