Five Minute Friday . . .

a FuN friday meme from The Gypsy Mama.  like to write?  feel free to join us...

I like chocolate. I like words.

And I never tell my chocolate what’s wrong with it, how it could have been improved, and how disappointed I am in it before I eat it.

I. Just. Eat. It.

That’s what we do around here on Fridays. We eat words. Straight up. Without second guessing, editing, or criticizing them. We simply savour all their deliciousness. For a full five minutes. You should try it. It’s a calorie-rich experience sans calories.

Wanna just write? Without wondering if it’s just right?

1. Indulge in five rich, delicious minutes of pure writing.
2. Tell your readers you’re linking up here and invite them to dig in too.
3. And most importantly, go visit, read, and compliment the five minute chef who served something up right before you.

OK, are you ready? Give your best five minutes for the prompt: 
Every Day...
is a new beginning.
fresh.  unclaimmed territory.  expansive horizon.  ready to be claimed, explored, discovered, valued, envisioned.
what i do with it is my response.  my response to a gift freely given.  voluntarily squandered or voluntarily invested.  my  choice. 
how to begin?  prayer.  an offering.  offering the day back to the Giver.  a request.  requesting the guidance, the establishment of thought required to enjoy and employ this day wisely.  commitment of the day to its Creator.  commmitment of myself to Creator's service, enjoyment and delight.  that i might be who God has designed and desires me to be.  that i might do as God wills.
STOP.

OK, your turn – show us what you’ve got.
