thought provoking, mardra, and how interesting that you have written out what those with creative minds do….write stories for complete strangers and “fill in the endings”! Nicely done!
Nice one, Mardra – and it points out what writers do: extend themselves imaginatively and sympathetically toward other people. It’s the introvert’s social life, I suppose, and it’s also the basis for civilized humanity.
Even…or maybe especially…the story-tellers have a story if anyone dare take notice. Does the story-teller want to be the story, though? Now you’ve gone and made me think…drats!
Such an interesting idea for a thought provoking photo. I wonder why it is so much easier for us to fill in other peoples lives with happy endings, than it is to fill our own lives in the same way…....we may think of the happy ending, but getting to it…........well.
