Prompt
“Talk less, be kind.” – John Coyote
On Writing
Breathe the sentence in. Exhale the sentence. Inhale and exhale each word. Now inhale and exhale the sentence. Then, go!
There is only one rule, keep your hand moving.
Don’t worry about grammar, spelling, or punctuation. If you feel stuck, keep writing anyway. Try going back to the prompt and write it out until other words arise, then write those—or, repeat the last word you wrote again and again until new words appear—or, write, “I am stuck,” or “I can’t think of anything,” as long as you keep your hand moving. Writing is physical, the words will move through your body and come out of your hand—just keep it moving.
Now go – for five, ten, fifteen minutes . .

Today the sun is out and I go to the Clinton River.
I learn many moons ago. Life is very fair.
And all there is, is the gathering of memories.
For us to know we had lived.
I tell my grandchildren.
Dance often, laugh when you can and travel the world.
We must know great adventures and many kisses.
In the end. This is all there is for us to grasp.

Kindness is one of the key understandings and teaching of young persons, I have been a substitute teacher for aa good while now and one of the very first things I ask my 6th through 8th graders to do is turn to each other and greet showing human kindness and it seemed to help everyone relax a bit more.
