Friday Flash 55



My mother, my daughter, me. We sit around the table with coffee, each women of our own time. Shaped by society, decades, education. Different hairstyles and clothes, and divergent generational beliefs we defend vigorously. But alike, so alike in spirit; all three fiercely needing freedom of action. Only then are we content to be home.

An excellent 55. The best homes are those that allow us to do our own thing, then go back for a common bond.
I've just found G-Man and had a go.

An inspiring 55. This made me think of my girls and I spending time together, not exactly the same, but oh so similar. Have a great weekend. :)
