Right now???

Daily writing prompt
Interview someone — a friend, another blogger, your mother, the mailman — and write a post based on their responses.

There has been far too little notice for me to successfully complete this prompt!

They want me to interview someone on a Friday morning? Ok, WordPress… you got me!

I feel so unprepared for this interview, as I’m still in my pajamas and only a third way through my first cup of coffee… not to mention the fact that I haven’t even had my morning trail walk… sheesh!

Well, here goes,

…ummm, we may have a problem finding a suitable candidate for this set-up.

You see, at the moment, it’s only seven in the morning so my options are limited. Let me explain,

With my solitary lifestyle (not by choice), I don’t have a list of selectable folks. My hubby is sleeping so he’s a no-go, and my sweet friend is already at her job. I’ve no mother, no brother, no sister or mailman. My children are absent, no more pets even live in our RV.

The mail hasn’t run, yet, so my local letter carrier is off the hook!

The only other interviewee’s available around here, are either the cheeky squirrel who boldly demands peanuts each day, or the ants who think all my food can be carried away!

While I refuse to exchange any further words with the pushy insects, and my peanut eating squirrel hasn’t arrived yet, I’m opting for the river. Maybe I’ll run into one of the Raven brothers, or wouldn’t it be wonderful if I could run into Bill or Netty Pottsworth. I know that I could get an earful from Netty… she’s always good for gossip, at least.

Well, I’m off… wish me luck!

Oh, and here…

Maybe the cookies have our answers…

Daily writing prompt
Interview someone — a friend, another blogger, your mother, the mailman — and write a post based on their responses.

Myself – Firstly, I wish to say thank you Someone, for taking the time to answer these few questions I wish to ask.

Someone – you are quite welcome, I am so glad you asked me to do this interview.

Myself – I was hoping you might share a little about what you do.

Someone – I find and save things that are broken and lost. Once found, I take the broken thing and mend it. Then I set it on the path it needed to find.

Myself – Wow! That seems like a great amount of time and effort, since I see broken things everywhere. Don’t you ever get tired and want to quit? I can only imagine how it might feel to pick up a broken thing and see that you have fixed it in the past and it is broken yet again.

Someone – My desire is to always be near the broken, to always save what is crushed in spirit. I was created to fulfill these things and I never tire or lose my desire for restoring a broken thing.

Myself – I myself have been mended by your hands on multiple occasions, so I can certainly attest to the truth of your statement about return visits. This has brought me to my last question, which is one that I rarely use these days, but since this is an interview and it is a logical question to follow the others… Why? Why do you come back each time and mend again, if you know I will most likely break something else and need you to help?

Someone – Because I love you…

Myself – …and …

Someone – I love you…

Myself – I have had many tell me they loved me and when I needed them, they failed me…

Someone – Have I ?

Myself – Well, actually No!

Someone – Look not to the world for what will heal, mend, and save you. Look Up!

Myself – Why?

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.” John 14:6

Myself – I am a bit overwhelmed with your answer, so I will end this particular interview in an effort to absorb your heartfelt answers. Would you be willing to share like this again at a later date, if needed?

Jesus“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.” Matthew 7:7,8

Myself – Thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to meet with me for this interview. I know that it was last minute, but you were already having coffee with me, so it worked out perfectly. I even set out this plate of biscotti and coffee for the readers, so help yourself.
