So, I am taking this 6-week writing class called The Write Motivation, and it has been one of the best things I have done. It is because of this class that I have finally found the motivation to start writing in my blog again (yay!).
Anyway, in the class they takes about "field stones," which are passages about things that get our attention and can be used in later work. Here is one that I shared with the class and was described by one of the teachers as "brilliant:"
Today (5/31/12), as I was on my way to work, I saw a lady with a formal dress on with pants, and she was pushing a cart full of stuff. Her dress was sleeveless and purple with sequins, and it came down past her knees to her shins. The pants were khaki-colored. She was obviously homeless. I though to myself: 'as ridiculous as she looks, at least she had clothes to wear...'
