Dream Trip to Brazil
My now 21-year-old son and I love to travel all over the world. This is a story I wrote back on January 6, 2019, shortly after we returned from Brazil and before I discovered Vocal. My son was 16 going on 17 then.
Lana V LynxPublished 10 months ago in WanderUse the Power of Questions to Prompt Writing Topics
Traveling, visiting landmarks and eating cuisine of new regions ignites my senses. However, getting to the destination tests my patience. During the hours of driving, my interest wanes requiring me to get creative to stay awake. First up is the alphabet game. Once each letter has been spotted on road signs, I begin to find a license plate from every state in the union. Then I torment my husband by exclaiming, “I spy!” and describing some obscure item. He plays along until we both lose interest and move onto other stimulating games like listing animals whose names start with every letter of the alphabet.

I love the smell of skunk. I know, I know, but I am one of those people. I actually had a discussion once with a member of the DuPont family, they of the "better living through chemistry" mindset, asking if that was important, and she slowly reached for her cell phone to call relatives in the perfumery department... I had to break her heart by telling her I'm allergic to alcohol. Thus endeth my illustrious career as a nose that should have been the toast of Europe, insured for millions by Lloyd's of London.

Another true story from the annals of my bizarre life... Alice Cooper saved my life. Not kidding, he really did. So I may have mentioned that if a friend has to move, my husband and I are there with bells on to make sure that said friend is well and truly MOVED. If said friend is in danger, my Fierce Protective Friend Meter ratchets itself up to eleven, and you'd better believe that, come heck, high water, or vagaries of life, you WILL be moved.

Introduction Rain. It is a gift from the heavens, nourishing the earth and bringing life to all living beings. There's something magical about the rhythmic pattern of raindrops, the refreshing scent of wet soil, and the cool touch of droplets on our skin. Rain has inspired poets, artists, and dreamers for centuries. And one way we can fully embrace and celebrate this natural wonder is through the joyous art of rain dance.

In the depths of the afterlife, where lost souls wander in eternal torment, there exists a realm known as the "Veil of Shadows." It is a place shrouded in darkness, where the weight of regrets and unresolved pain hangs heavy in the air, and the allure of the unknown beckons relentlessly.
