If we create our own reality, and we are being told repeatedly that we are screwed, does repeating that idea do more to make it happen rather than to prevent it? You're on to something there, I'd say :)

Sorry, I hope I did not sound as if being mad at you. I just thought loud. It's good that you give a home for some of the Ukranians who need it.

If you were in the shoes of the people who are afraid of their lives, would you not want your regime to surrender instead of having more military and arms coming into your neighborhood? What do you think,

Remaining realistic in times dominated by news and media, where one should ask oneself what or whom to believe here at all, is not easy. People are impressed by talk of war. The further away, the less

wundert mich, dass es nicht zensiert ist. Interessant, solchen Überlegungen zuzuhören. Keine Ahnung, ob dies ein klareres Bild gibt. Die ganze Angelegenheit der Bedrohung und Gegenbedrohung scheint ein

Fabulous. Nice fast paced narration, I was right in the middle of the action. While I was still reading, I had the thought that he probably runs around a bit too long and therefore the building would collapse

Hello and good day, in order to bring a little movement into the comments section and to issue a small challenge to you, I will comment as follows :) Your opening example and the judging statement basically

To hell with the rules, I would say. A good story! I especially like that you don't tell it chronologically in detail, but in sections that let the reader fill in the gaps themselves. A very good stylistic

I made an observation, that seems to confirm that my own way of writing works way better when I freewrite. It's funny, for all the postings I prepared well, thought over well, worked on many hours and

I agree on this that people think of themselves being bad - I would ad "without knowing it". That is actually something someone would not believe. I only realized it myself after studying books

I opted an attitude of saying "what I can say about this matter." But then I had to quit it as this attitude also gave a negative signal to them. HaHa! That makes me laugh. It happened to me,

That is a mature view and I welcome it. Difference in opinion does not mean that there is not at the same time friendliness involved. Greetings to you! :)

HaHa! :D So, your intention was to express how you see patience is being misunderstood. I see. You thought of me and there I was :) I like having conversations and dig deeper into something when it interests

What a fabulous way to write. You let your thoughts come, which first have a statement, then look at them and see their multiplicity. Your freewrites pay off, you write the way you think, which is refreshing

Good evening from here, I want to answer briefly, for I think we have a somewhat similar look onto this topic, after talking a bit further. For me, the read sounded more like "patience" is not

Hello Amber, thank you, I am good and hope, you are, too. I jump right into what thoughts your reply caused with me. My life experience tells me that if I myself am in conflict with my environment and

Hello to you, instead of a comment, I would like to ask some questions (I don't expect necessarily an answer). For example: What should be your goal if it is not marriage or motherhood that you are looking

Love is happily received :) I am glad that you initiated this story and gave me the chance to finish it with my "vinegar" (Ha,Ha, great expression!). Here, have some love back : ❤️ ❤️
