Quite recently, I was asked the question that all authors, bloggers and ordinary people love to answer:
“Why do you write?”
Those four words are deeper than you can imagine! To even begin to answer the question requires much thought and soul-searching. Most writers would toss it back and forth between their ears, and mull it into a warm autumn drink. They would then consider the options; they would weigh the outcomes and pontificate on the ramifications.
It took me about three seconds to answer…
I write to spread Joy Butter over the toast of ordinary, everyday life.
Eric needs a little Joy Butter on his rye bread.
The Lord said that we should pray, “Give us this day our daily bread.” Toasting the bread is good — getting it warmed and crunchy is a fine morning tradition — it’s completely palatable and nourishing. However, dry toast can be…well, dry! It can be just crumbs in your mouth, pretty bland and ordinary. But omigooseness when you spread a pat of butter over the toast….why it just makes a world of difference.
Do you have “toast” days?
Kinda of dry, kind of boring, kind of crumby…
Mother Goose is here with her Joy Butter, ready to add some flavor and smiles to your day. Please pass the Joy Butter!
