Evaporation
GiaB prompt #2–6 the sun

Bright and sunny, nourishing many, the source of life.
How shameful it was then I could not use your light as others have loved, I could not use your heat as others have warmed,
and as I have I’d shrivelled up to die in the thirst of the desert absent the moisture I needed.
Thank you to Victor Sarkin for this prompt: Light and Heat. The description he wrote resonated with me deeply as he wrote about the pros and cons of the sun. I certainly have encountered friendships and relationships like this. For me, these are also what words of affirmations feel sometimes. To some, these words heal and empower. To others, the same words may be toxic positivity that is placed out of context and deadly.
Inviting anyone reading for which this description roused a feeling (rage???????) to join in on this wonderful prompt!
Hi I’m Lucy Dan 蛋小姐 (she/her/她) and I acknowledge that the sun is important, but only in balance with the other elements we need and love in life.
Hop down the rabbit hole? 🐰🕳
