Daily Prompt 1949

What does “having it all” mean to you? Is it attainable?

What does it mean? I don’t know.

Knowing what it means is the tricky bit, isn’t it? Its easy to rattle off a list of things. Stuff. Having it all via a shopping spree.

Material things are the first thoughts that come to mind. The instant gratification of just having something that you want. Like a kid, pressed up against the window of my dreams, picking my most favourite things, to just have, and that would be all.

But second thoughts, considering it for a little while, it’s not about stuff.

It’s about having freedom, having all the possibilities, the opportunities and the ability to choose freely.

I would choose to create things. Create art. Make stuff. Weird things, fun things, odd things. Unique things, that can only come from having the luxury of choice.

Is it attainable?

That’s a cow of a different colour. I don’t think so. No.

Who would you like to talk to soon?

Me.

Take some time to be honest with myself.

Is that cliché enough? There’s always got to be a bit of cliché with daily prompts. Right? Right.

Daily Prompt 1946

Do you have any collections?

I have far too many empty notebooks. All different sizes and brands.

I want to have a collection of Common Place Books. That, however, is harder to collect, as I have to turn my current notebook collection into books with knowledge inside.

It’s a longer process, as I have to both learn all the things and then put the parts of it I want to remember into my notebooks.

But the empty notebooks look pretty on my shelf!
