Writing Prompt: Tables turned

Are as comfortable in front of a camera as behind one? Being written about as well as writing?

I have no problem being in front of a camera, but behind a camera I am not that great. I have a camera ,when I bought it I was excited and dreamed of taking gorgeous photos, I haven’t done so and I doubt I’ll ever be comfortable doing it.

I do not think I’d like to be written about, it’s something reserved for a whole different category of humans. Some  people are written  about when they  accomplish unbelievable goals, or those who have done something terribly inhuman. I do not belong to any of these people.

I enjoy writing, I never knew I would be able to do so until lately.I may not excel in this craft I write to practice and improve. Whether I’ve done that is hard to say. I’m carrying on with the hope someday I might do better than  now.

Writing Prompt: Wall to Wall

What do you display on the walls of your home—- photos,posters,artwork, nothing? How do you choose what to display? What mood are you trying to create?

My walls at the moment are showing off the painter’s craft. I am busy wondering, do I want to cover his artistic work by hanging artwork or pictures or posters or photographs? It will hide the beautiful painting, on second thoughts I am not sure I should leave the walls as is. It will quickly lose its lustre and my friends and all those big mouths will have a field day discussing how awful my walls look.

I am thinking of celebrating nature, the paintings and other work of art are screaming to adorn the empty spaces on my wall.

The colorful feather of the peacock,the ducks wading on the lake, the beautiful garden and the flowers will depict nature’s beauty. 

The painting of the geese with their outstretched wings, ready to take off any moment will be wonderful to watch.

There are two different painters I am thinking about, one took a bucket of paint and used his brushes and rollers to paint the walls with my choice of colors.

The other has an easel where he also paints but his tools are different, his paint comes in small sizes,his work if he happens to be famous sells for a lot of money.

I’d stop right now and pick the paintings to cover  my walls  with paintings of birds,I’ll put up the paintings of birds,flowers, lakes.

They will I hope look beautiful in my living room.

Palmistry,I’ve heard a lot about Cheiro’s palmistry, and how accurately he could read anyone’s palm. I was flying from London,England to Dhaka,Bangladesh I don’t know why on earth I was thinking of palmistry. Suddenly a big burly woman sat on the empty seat beside me. After exchanging some pleasantries,she introduced herself as a palm reader. It didn’t awaken my curious mind,rather I stay away from people who try to tell me what’s in store for me in the coming days,months or years. I am happy to take each day as it comes,not what I can look forward to.

The woman wanted to read my hand,I tried to excuse myself.She insisted I should,I tried to shun her off politely. It seemed she was bent on showing me her craft. I gave in and let her read my palm.Well, what she came up with stunned me. I would marry a physician,he lives in North America. She kept talking, I tuned her off. I thanked her. I turned around and tried to take a nap. Her shrill voice,her demeanor,  constantly interrupted my thoughts. I was relieved when the flight attendant called her. I was glad to see her leave!
