Honesty
Going over old posts from the #write365 project I noticed a thread running through a number of them: honesty.
- Writing for self gives an honesty of thought and opinion.
- Writing tired, when the guard is down, gives a deeper honesty we might normally try to hide.
It's this honesty that becomes appealing to others, that lets them see the person behind the words.
Although we may have been writing for self it is, ironically, at this point we are truly writing for others.
# Yesterday was our 23rd wedding anniversary. Wow, 23 years!
Unfortunately, just as we were planning on heading out, our car decided it would be a good time for the accelerator pedal sensors to fail rendering it immobile.
I've had to take tomorrow off to get it towed to a garage and get the pedal assembly replaced.
@colinwalker Congratulations! That's a good run. Here's to many more. Sorry about the car though.
@jack Thanks ? Still, at least it happened at home rather than on the motorway.
Oh wow, congrats! 23 years, that’s great!! Sorry to hear about the car, but hopefully you all can find a nice way to celebrate soon.
@colinwalker Congratulations! Seems it was a memorable anniversary, though perhaps not in the way you had planned :-)
Congratulations, Colin! I'm not far behind (we celebrated 20 years earlier this year).
@smokey @EddieHinkle Thanks guys ?
Congratulations to you as well. It’s no mean feat these days.
@colinwalker Happy Anniversary to you both!
@colinwalker Happy Anniversary Colin! Congratulations on 23 years of togetherness ?
