Awesome, Marty! It's wonderful to see people pull themself together after a shocking event like that. You put your faith in someone, then learn the awful truth when you think you're too old to deal with it. BAM! Good for Mom!
Often it's life changing events that open the door to our true selves. There is a blessing in everything that happens to us if we are open to it and patient enough to let it manifest. Terrific story, Marty.
Thanks, K.C.! Great point, "There is a blessing in everything that happens to us if we are open to it and patient enough to let it manifest." This is so true.
Love to write from prompts to see who and what shows up. This piece is a realistic reflection of how relationships change lives and how the aftermath can be both a crushing blow and a celebration. Your primary character fought herself up through the debris of years not belonging to herself and then finding grace and joy in the reawakening process. I smiled at her bravery and audacity to embrace her renewal. Great piece.
It sounds like she's doing just great. She had so many things thrown at her in a short time and she's learned to deal with it and not worry about what anybody thinks about her either. Her future is looking bright. Cool story, Marty.

This is a beautiful observation, Patricia. I've quoted it in this week's newsletter. And I'd love to have you join us around the Jukebox! https://storiesfromthejukebox.substack.com/p/hallelujah
Thank you, Patricia. Prompts can be fun, especially song prompts. They just give you so much to work with.
