RE: Day 521: 5 Minute Freewrite: Monday - Prompt: wild
Oh so many many things in one post! Family of orgin is in Puerto Rico - love it. Passengers applauding the safe landing of the plane: how un-American but how fitting and right. Wild dogs that are happy, gentle and friendly? We're told feral dogs in packs become hostile and dangerous. Above all I love your question on whether it' right and just and helpful to take dogs from their natural habitat and assume they're "better off" confined to indoor lives like ours. This would make a great children's book if you felt the Call of the Wild (Jack London!) to write it. :) Thanks for this freewrite. I love it.
Oh, and I love Lydia Viscardi - love that "excerpt" from the portrait you posted - had to look her up:
lydiaviscardi.com/ - Visual artist, Professor of Art, Gallery Curator in Connecticut
This image in particular speaks to me (my little sister, #5 of 5 daughter, comes to mind):
Lydia was next to youngest of four daughters! I have a beauty of hers depicting the four of them. I'll have to use it soon. I'm going to use it today actually so keep an eye out for it - it is perfect for what I just wrote!
She is amazing.
This period of hers was right when I fell for her.
Thank you for looking her up
I'll have to tell her.
And thank you for loving my freewrite! It was one of the personal ones, that always feel so iffy to me.
Your personal freewrites are fantastic! I almost said The Best but your others are just as good. I love Lydia's artwork - thank you for introducing her to us!
