CROSSINGS
We cross bridges every day, often without noticing: roads, hallways, routines, conversations, rituals.
Write about one crossing that changed you. Start with the ordinary details-the light, the sounds around you, what was in your hands, what your body remembers.
Then let the crossing become something larger:
What did it bring you closer to? What did it ask you to leave behind?
Stay grounded in concrete and sensory details— trust the small particulars to lead you toward larger truths.
~Prompt by Richard Blanco
