Umm

Daily writing prompt
What’s something most people don’t understand?

If I knew, I’d be special. What kind of question is this?

I once memorized Pi to 100 places on a bet that I could. I never got the case of beer I was promised. I did not win. It wasn’t hard. I had a good memory.

OK. There’s got to be some answer to this question. Ah, I’ve got it. Life. Most people don’t … maybe they do though. I don’t know.

I’ll be back later today. I’m considering things. Like breakfast. Most people understand that.

I should have read other’s responses before attempting to answer today’s prompt. I’m not sure that would have helped.

  1. Life is indeed a complex question with no simple answer, and sometimes it’s okay not to have all the answers right away.

      1. Therapist reminded that it’s okay to file an extension for the taxes, even if one ends up filing them on time, to feel a little more relaxed about it. 🙂

        She also recognized a change in me, prioritizing (and expecting) more gentleness toward myself. We talked about the dog, and intuition around tests. Most of our conversations are very practical. The last time we met, she asked the name of my blog, which I hesitated to give, but did anyway. She didn’t mention whether she had taken a look or not. I also didn’t ask.

      2. A lot of my wife’s clients file extensions. I’ve never asked why. I still shudder a little when I think of the last time I completed a tax return. I had to file in NY State, NYC, and California. It was not fun.
