In the lost stance of life. Top Story - February 2024.
In the lost stance of life Nothingness is the land where my thoughts belong a little too often. The art of wandering in the lost ocean of opportunities while creating the dreams I want to stride upon is the skill I have mastered in the ride of life. Stirred by the beacon of hope in the cup of blossoming hot coffee, I decided to write a tale of victory over defeat, a tale of joy triumphing over the sadness and atrocity of darkness. But as I walk upon this journey called life, the menace of time plonks and plunges me into the blindsided trance of nothingness. Our dreams are often shunned by externality as we are deemed delusional in uproars. Often it becomes our fuel as we turn the bitterness of words into the ounces of grit and determination that propel us forward.

Path to Oblivion
Intro by Luna Park “Diary Entrance 100, We all knew that one day humans, we, would find a path but not for the best, rather to oblivion. We would fight each other until the last and there is no glory in it. And the best part of all, is that we are so blind by all the things we became, in it including all the words in all the languages of men to describe all the bad behaviours and things that humanity could ever do, all came true. We are not in the movies anymore. This is the truth. All the craziness of nuclear weapons happened. So, here is presented the path to oblivion. Only a few survived. And no, we did not go to Mars nor another planet. We got got stuck here on Earth. Apocalypse is not a theme anymore, but pain still is. I suffer every day by the effects of radiation. Al science and their creators of what some call the dark magic. Stupid, I know. I don’t believe in it. We all lost the belief in Christmas or any Mambo Jambo of the past. Capitalism died just there when it was it’s time, as the things named with ism.

A Story Every Day - Prompts for February 2024
February is almost on us, so here are some prompts for you for your brain to mull on! Reminder: The aim is to post a short story (microfiction) EVERY DAY in 2024. Here's the post about it, and the follow-up. Word limit is 366 (minimum count 300) The prompts are aids only, not challenges (unless you want to use them that way). It doesn't have to be perfect. Hopefully a decent standard, but not perfect. Perfection is the enemy of creativity, no? The idea is to get the juices flowing. Stories that are short and sweet, and plenty of them. There's a way to keep your streak going if you know in advance you won't be able to get online on certain dates

vocal bliss
As the new year approaches, there is always a significant push to pick ourselves apart, see where we can make personal improvements, set goals, and decide how to completely change our lives to become even better versions of ourselves. Although I feel the excitement around the impulse of making changes, improving, and setting goals, I’m not one to set my lofty resolutions during the frigid winter months. I’m in hibernation mode, and if it doesn't include a sweater, slippers, and tea, I’m probably not going.
