I appreciate your uplift today Jen, notably with Bogin's lines. My temporary stall in positivity is picking up locomotion as I remind myself of Viktor Frankl's conclusion from his experiences at Auschwitz and Dachau: “We have absolutely no control over what happens to us in life but what we have paramount control over is how we respond to those events.”
Negative visualization is a good exercise. I've don't what's my worse fear and wrote about it. I think the key is to keep it mainly personal and later it may be possible to develop a wider subtext.
I love the not knowing as the prompt - I feel like those are the best prompts. Compassionate curiosity is my ultimate goal in any writing (though I don't think I achieve it often enough).

I want to reread Man's Search for Meaning soon. Thank you for mentioning Frankl, Jim. We are riding the waves...

Thanks, Jen.
Thanks for reading, Steve. Here we are.
"Take some action, no matter how small, that makes you proud." Yes. Each of us can do that. Thanks, Jen.
And you are doing it with your beautiful letters, Nancy.
Thank you for this, Jen! <3
