RE: The 1111 Writing Contest - What magic can you create with only 1111 characters?! - Week 3 - 'Change' [TOP PRIZE 3 STEEM + Runner up Prizes!! Winners from Week 2 Announced!]
Best read with a jumping heartbeat.
Breathy and rapid, man you covered ground with this one.
(at this part I jumped back to your page, because I wanted to mention something about the line with shindig haha)
BUT
I actually clicked through to a post you wrote about your "journey"...
You are a freakin' hero! and yes you are Badass!
My thoughts are with you, keep fighting, keep writing, keep sharing, my friend.
What about the word shindig? Hahahhaa I'm happy that you like it. Have you noticed the number of lines in every stanza. I've also hyperlinked this post in that poem. Hahahaha. We're all heroes in our own stories.
Ohh! Kicking it with the 11 line stanzas, huh?
Somebody is gettin' competitive hahaha. Nice touch!
If you win we can have a shindig ;)
Yup Brother we are all heroes within our own epics, and one great quality is to not be defined by certain aspects of our life, we are far more than a label, a description, a diagnosis.
Way happy to have crossed paths with you, your writing makes me smile :)
Yeah. Most people drop their jaws when I tell them that I'm a kidney disease patient. Hahahaha. You love the word shindig, huh? Hahahahaha
It shocked me, yes, but I say it a little differently...You are not a CKD patient, that is something that is happening to you!
You are a cool, smart, funny guy with a big smile who just happens to have this thing going on in his life. It isn't who you are...I know that you know this, but I just wanted to make the distinction, so you realise that is not how I would ever describe you...
OK...I will level with you...The word shindig is a really old word here in the UK like a Grandparent would say...
"Are you having a shindig for your birthday?"
When a younger person would say party. But I hear some "hipsters" have started using it again. But the word always makes me laugh, it is a crazy word, I love it!
So thankYOU for using it in your awesome piece and making me think of it again.
Have fun and hope it's a great day Bro :)
Thank you for those kind words. Youre right. I shouldnt be putting the I-am-a-kidney-disease-patient label on myself. Thank you bro.
Really? In college, there was an event called shindig. Apparently, it's a party. From then, I just loved the word. UK? I wanna go there hahahahhaa. I love UK citizens. Super cool, sophisticated, good looking, and smart. I just love Europe, generally. Thats why i feel sad every time I hear bad stuff about europe.
Please don't misunderstand...It's not that you "shouldn't"...
I just mean that, trust me, you are seen as so much more!
I would love to visit the Philippines too, strange how we all long to be somewhere other than we are...That's life I guess lol.
Life. One of the most mind-boggling games on earth. Ill be following you. So I can see all your posts. And i can somehow live in Europe hahahaha. Nice talk brother
