Daily writing prompt
When you think of the word “successful,” who’s the first person that comes to mind and why?
My grandmother. She went by the beat of her own drum. She was a creative genius, always sewing, cooking, painting, and woodcrafting. She could do anything. Once she built a puzzle piece coffee table where the sun and moon were cutouts from the wood, each block fitting perfectly into its place. A secret door opened underneath to retrieve the pieces. She said she just couldn’t stop thinking about it, so she learned how to create it in my grandfather’s woodworking shop. She wrote poetry too. She was a success for being exactly herself and following her loves.
