Hello to you listening in Wellingborough, North Hamptonshire, England!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.

They say that life is like a roll of TP: the closer you get to the end the faster it goes.

Maybe you feel this way, too. Zoom Zoom! How do we slow it down? Pay attention to what’s still there? Savor the days even when they taste like cardboard, or worse?

Imagine this: Life is like a big red bus and some of us get on fighting for the best seats to see the best view from the best vantage points when all of a sudden the bus ride is over and we saw nothing. Others are content to stand in the aisle and experience the ride as best they can, being grateful for having gotten on the bus in the first place.

Story Prompt: We are given a life we have no right to expect. Now that you’ve boarded the big red bus what’s your ride going to be like? Write that story and share it out loud!

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.

You’re always welcome: “Come for the stories – Stay for the magic!” Speaking of magic, I hope you’ll subscribe, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, bring your friends and rellies, and join us! You will have wonderful company as we continue to walk our lives together.

AND!  Stop by my Quarter Moon Story Arts website during reconstruction, email me [[email protected]] to arrange a no-obligation Discovery Call, and stay current with me as Quarter Moon Story Arts on Substack.

Remember the first time you rode a bike and took your hands off the handlebars? And then because it felt fun and scary you did it again until you were streaking down a hill with the wind blowing in your face and your hands up over your head screaming, “Look ma! No hands!” That’s been the story of Diane's life. Showing up - maybe scared but not afraid - because when you fall down 7 you get up 8.
