Stream of Consciousness Saturday #SOCS Prompt is “scene.” 

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “scene”. Use it any way you’d like. Enjoy!

At almost 60 with multiple chronic health problems, my days of drama are long behind me. I’ve met many good and not-so-good doctors over the years and have had two bad experiences in the past month.

I finally hit a wall and blew a gasket. My scene wasn’t in public, it was via computer. After being sick for more than half of my life, I’m very clear on what I expect from a doctor and the last two did not fit the criteria. 

Melinda

Here are the rules:

1. Your post must be Stream of Consciousness writing, meaning no editing (typos can be fixed), and minimal planning on what you’re going to write. 2. Your post can be as long or as short as you want it to be. One sentence – one thousand words. Fact, fiction, poetry – it doesn’t matter. Just let the words carry you along until you’re ready to stop. 3. I will post the prompt here on my blog every Friday, along with a reminder for you to join in. The prompt will be one random thing, but it will not be a particular subject. For instance, I will not say “Write about dogs”; the prompt will be more like, “Make your first sentence a question,” “Begin with the word ‘The,’” or will simply be a single word to get you started. 4. Ping back! It’s important, so that I and other people can come and read your post! For example, in your post you can write “This post is part of SoCS:” and then copy and paste the URL found in your address bar at the top of this post into yours.  Your link will show up in my comments for everyone to see. The most recent pingbacks will be found at the top. NOTE: Pingbacks only work from WordPress sites. If you’re self-hosted or are participating from another host, such as Blogger, please leave a link to your post in the comments below. 5. Read at least one other person’s blog who has linked back their post. Even better, read all of them! If you’re the first person to link back, you can check back later or go to the previous week by following my category, “Stream of Consciousness Saturday,” which you’ll find below the “Like” button on my post. 6. Copy and paste the rules (if you’d like to) in your post. The more people who join in, the more new bloggers you’ll meet and the bigger your community will get! 7. As a suggestion, tag your post “SoCS” and/or “#SoCS” for more exposure and more views. 8. Have fun!

Happy Birthday, Apple Computer!

Today I watched a fascinating interview with Steve Jobs in 1981. What a genius he was, part of the genius was his hard-core passion for building a solid product with the tools people want. He talked about how the company was structured, and the freedom/accountability employees have. Trust was the foundation.

Thank you to all Apple employees! I appreciate you every day, all day.

I’m Sending Good Karma To All

For those who are having a challenging day, close your eyes and change the scenery, even for a minute.

Life is like a swing, back and forth, not every day is a good day.

If you are having a great day, pass a kind thought on to others.

No matter how tiny the light will shine again. We have to live our best life and we can give back just by doing something kind to someone who needs it.
