1. It’s Friday the 13^th! I felt it fitting to use something dark for today’s ‘fail’ prompt, but still offer a glimmer of hope. Despite the growing shadows, there remains a new opportunity or a reminder that life goes on. Even after failure, the day (or life) invites us to try again and move forward with renewed energy. Go get ’em! ↩︎
