I once had a friend ask me “What color is the sky in your world?” I thought it was amusing, but over the years, I’ve realized that my world is not normal, it’s fun, it’s interesting and I try to make it fair. If I make assumptions about people – I assume they are like me… and the color of the sky doesn’t matter— all that matters is that it is.
Today’s Prompt: Satisfaction
I wish I could settle for good enough. Good enough means I’m at home watching the golden globes and cheering for imaginary heroes. Unfortunately good enough isn’t. I want better. I want to leave the world better off than it was when I found it and, unfortunately, that means doing something about my demon-summoning-stalker-ex.
Good enough would mean avoiding him, his demon buddy and their friends and just getting on with my life, preferably somewhere in Tahiti or Bora-Bora. Okay, that really doesn’t sound like good enough, that sounds like ‘what the hell am I still doing here?’
But there is work to be done and let’s face it – save the world, then Bora-Bora. Then, I will have earned it. But there will be Bora-Bora and the feeling of a job well done… I hope.
