For so many people, this prompt is like an anxiety grenade and responding is like unclipping it and putting it in your pocket for later. What’s the next prompt gonna be “name the top 3 loved ones you’ve disappointed the most! And why?” Or maybe “ If you had to pick, which of your friends will be quickest to flirt with your spouse at your funeral?” Or maybe my Catholic upbringing favorite “You’re at a party, you can only choose 1 of your many ways you’re actively hurting god to ruminate on, which 1 you pickin? P. S. your parents don’t like the way you turned out, that’s why they only do small talk with you”. I bet those prompts would meet the word count in a New York minute. I mean, talk about my future worries?? FINALLY a place with a prompt to share my anxieties, there are such few places to do so, I mean there’s only Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook, twitter, family members, close friends, my journal, God, Jehovah, Buddha, Yahweh, therapy, my spouse, support groups, music, poetry, etc. and all of those are pretty whack, especially the etcetera. I mean what even is an etcetera? I ain’t never seen an etcetera, I ain’t never hung out with one, ion even know what bubble they fill out to self identify on important documents. All I know is, if I ever encounter one ima still treat em like a child of god, but I am nervous bc I’ve never seen one yet… maybe my future worry is running into an etcetera and not knowing what to do.
