Life decisions and actions.

Daily writing prompt
Write about a time when you didn’t take action but wish you had. What would you do differently?

Is the prompt asking for a time when I felt bad about a spilled milk?

It is good to forget about things we did not do. Maybe do things better the next time around. They were just life lessons that needed to happen. Experience do add value to our life resume!

Sometimes I feel I take more action than that is needed. I should just scale back on the effort I put. Not everything needs my hard-fought action.

Most of these prompts are for people running or working in a corporate world. Everyday life is so different. We deal with situations that need not be like plan and action. We have so many baby books. What to expect when expecting. A very famous book. Remember there is no manual. Our life is so different from another person and so is the child an individual with his own wants and needs.

Yes, the prompt is vague and so is my answer. But I have pictures of bunny rabbits I found on a trail. Two of them found on a trail near a farm. Unlike my house, the farm does plant a lot of veggies, and I hope they stay there and bring their friends and families near them. Requesting them to stay away from my vegetable patch. Hopefully in a month we would have something.

Yes, they are two different bunnies and not the same one 🙂!

  2. This is such a grounding and refreshing perspective Ganga—thank you for sharing it. The reminder that life isn’t a corporate playbook, that children don’t come with manuals, and that sometimes doing less is wiser than overdoing it… that lands softly but deeply.

    And I love the bunny postscript: two different rabbits, one trail, a farm with veggies, and a quiet hope they’ll feast there instead of at your patch. That’s not vague—it’s gentle, observant, and real.

  3. This is such a refreshingly honest and grounded reflection. 🌿

    What makes it special is how you embrace the vagueness of the prompt instead of forcing a neat answer. You’ve turned it into something real—about learning, letting go, and recognizing that life doesn’t always follow structured plans or “manuals.”
