Do you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why? I'd like to think that I live more in the present. If I had to choose, however, on where my thoughts gravitate to, future or past, I definitely spend more time thinking about the past. I set intentions for what I'd like …
What are your biggest challenges? One of the biggest challenges I am currently facing is being able to delineate what is and should be within my control and what isn't. I am a fixer. If a friend or loved one is hurting, I immediately jump in with words of encouragement. I am available, always. I am a …
What are your two favorite things to wear? I've been in a funk this past week and the last several daily prompts have either been a.) repetitive, b.) stupid, or c.) too heavy. I've written and wrote, and wrote some more but hesitated to post anything. Today's prompt is easy. My favorite piece of clothing …
Do you trust your instincts? My instincts and intuition are the only things I trust. I fully accept that I have major trust issues. I'm not exactly sure where they stemmed from. Childhood? Negative experiences with romantic relationships? Life in general, probably. Oh, this is no "whoa is me" post. You won't find me whining …
What is your favorite place to go in your city? "My city". Hmpf. I wasn't going to answer today's prompt. I don't have a city that I would call "mine". I'm back on my streak, though, so no easy outs. Here we go... I have a city I was born in, but I haven't lived …
What's the first impression you want to give people? I'm not concerned about the first impression I give people. I probably should be. Maybe a little effort on my part would make it easier for people to get to know the real "Cari". Let's see.... I guess if I did care, I'd want to exude …
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? I have a ton of destinations on my bucket list to check off before I can explicitly answer this question. I want to visit Sicily again, this time sober and able to venture further than the airport. I'd like a little more time …
I'm going to skip past today's daily prompt in lieu of a little story. Today's question was something along the lines of "what is the most expensive personal item you have ever bought for yourself". Um, my Samsung Galaxy Watch 4? There. Daily Prompt answered. On with the story... Yesterday, I picked up a bunch …
Do you need time? This daily prompt makes me anxious. I'm at the age where I feel like I'm barrelling toward the finish line. I question what I've accomplished, what is left to accomplish, what I may have missed out on, all tinged by thoughts of mortality. Do I need more time, as in more …
Is there an age or year of your life you would re-live? Instinctively, my answer is no. There isn't an age or year of my life that I would re-live. Everything happens for a reason. Every year catapulted me to where I am today. Yes, every year had happy moments. Some more than others. There …
