Day One.... Challenges

i believe that life is full of challenges, unlike most who believe that life is full of change... doesn't the change present the challenge "to be, or not to be". in this space, at this time, i find myself looking for the happiness outside of my household, yet... comforting myself with the solace of words held hostage by paper dripping emotion hearts can feel ....

but the how, when, and what escape me completely... i need directions for my obsession, a route slaved to my teetering thoughts, a challenge...

Day 1 —Select a book at random in the room.  Find a novel or short story, copy down the last sentence and use this line as the first line of your new story. Random book : Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling

"As Hagrid had said, what would come, would come... and  he would have to meet it when it did". Regardless of the facts that remain the same, when time repeats itself in order to unkindly remind you of a past twice removed by memory, you have to face it.

  Hagrid knew better, knew that the future was both promised and uncertain, and most times unwilling to bend to the will of the human touch, but he would try, he would fight, he would give into the pressure of hope and pray for the obvious... A cure. A magical potion of a medicine to cure the incurable, loosen the grip of pain, wash over the damaged, and heal the ailing.

but is the fight possible or even plausible, when the doctor labels you terminal, and sends you home with four months to live attached with a diagnosis of CANCER....

what would come, would come... and somehow we all will have to meet it, when it does....
