"March 28, 2020" 

Prompt: "Write about something positive. What is something good that’s happened in your world recently? Share a smile, share a laugh, share a success. "

I don't know about anybody else but I have been immensely blessed over the past few weeks. I was accepted into the M. Div. program at Regent University and the whole process of acceptance into graduate school, which usually takes months, was completed in just days. I also received approval for my student loans and the stimulus check that the government is sending out. Thus my income jumped from just over $1,000.00 per month to over $2200.00 for April and well over $6,000.00 expected in June. I am deeply blessed. Much of that I have to pay back but it gives me breathing room during these hard times.

"Prompt: How is your "stay at home weekend" going? Have you written anything you want reviewed? Have you reviewed anything you want to tell us about?"

What weekend? I got up this morning and started my work day. It was noon before somebody asked me why I was working on Saturday. I told them the same thing I'm going to tell you. With this shut down the days are running together for me. I lost track of them and did not know this was Saturday!

Prompt: "The most difficult decision you’ve ever made. Write from the heart."

I really don't want to discuss it, but the hardest decision I ever had to make was discontinuing my late wife's life support after she was pronounced brain dead.
