I started this blog to give myself the opportunity to practice writing. The goal was to write four stories a week. I have really enjoyed the creative outlet. Now, I have invited some friends to also contribute stories and artwork. The author is identified at the end of the piece. All (most) of the writing takes the phrase "once we were lovers" as inspiration. Critical feedback is welcome.

Prayer

Forgive me my vanity in thinking I am less vulnerable than I am,
Grant me the strength to avoid men who can best be described by the adjective, 'reptilian;'
Give me the strength to resist my sympathetic yearning for men who suffer;
Lead me not into the temptation of wanting to help those beyond my reach;
Deliver me from falling in love with self aggrandizing men, furious at the world's disregard;
Amen
