30 Days of Drabble - Day 5


Day 5 - Transformation

Dear gods, when had she ever been that person? Katie looked through her book of memories that she'd kept since she was young. She saw a naive, enthusiastic Christian. The kind who actually protested at Pride parades. She was guilty of many hateful diatribes against people who were different than her. But, it had all started to change with a look at just the wrong time. Or right, depending on how you look at it. As she laid her head in her girlfriend's lap, still flipping through the book, she realized that, yes, she had. And thankfully, she'd learned better.

  1. Hi…umm, I like your drabbles…

    But what I actually wanted to say was that I saw your post on the ‘postcards’ blog from December 22 of last year, in which you described what depressed you. It might be a late comment, but I wanted to recommend you the book ‘The Power of Now’ by Eckhart Tolle in case you don´t know it already. He described the “niggling voice” in your head pretty well as an entity called the pain body that one can observe and reduce. The concept really makes sense, I’ve been feeling like this too and it helped me a lot…I posted this here so that it would be easier to see.
