The city has become unaffordable and I feel I only have two viable options left. One: move to the suburbs, live in an affordable bungalow and become a commuter. Two: move to the Caribbean, live in a luxury shipwreck and become a mermaid. #vss365 #shipwreck

Caught in the in-between, where all feels temporary. She sets up camp in the middle, #paralyzed at the fork in the road. Cheap, plastic moments bring brief respites from grief, but her gnawing gut craves rich sustenance and growls, "choose to thrive, not merely survive." #vss365

I knew he was having an affair. I asked him to #end it and he refused, saying it was the best thing he’d ever done. Eventually I worked it out: my love rival was my bad self. It was a ménage a trois - his two selves and my bad one. They invited my good self to join. #vss365

15th May #vss365 #prompt #end “Light is the left hand of darkness and darkness the right hand of light. Two are one, life and death, lying together like lovers in kemmer, like hands joined together, like the end and the way.” (Ursula LeGuin, The Left Hand of Darkness) Thank you

Those with a fear of the dark would avoid the terror and therefore miss the ensuing comfort from seeing what the might-have-been mirror would reflect. We always assume it might have been so much better, had we been better. But what if we had been a lot worse? #vss365

You know, son, my father left me with this powerful, compassionate thought. People who are so concerned with building and maintaining a #barrier do so not solely because they want to keep others out but because they know their limitations and fear exposure. #vss365

She traced a finger along billions of threads, of different hues and colours. Some of them sparkled under her touch, others became muted. At last, the #weaver stopped: one thread pulsated with the kind of energy she was looking for. Unravelling it, she hummed of rebirth. #vss365

I read somewhere that 97% of all writers fail to complete their first book. This little nugget of information. Strangely motivated me to strive to be the 3% whom had completed their first novel. .

She was ignoring him. He walked to the edge of her personal space bubble. Her back stiffened, her body humming with the #tension of an unplucked string. He tested her boundary, and she winced as a few discordant notes bounced off the floor. He sighed and slithered away. #vss365
