(this is random: but i didn’t know where else to say it!)

have you noticed that everywhere, everyone these days is using the term prompt?
i’ve been seeing it all over the place, in so many different contexts.

is this a new term? (like when everyone started saying “purposeful” )

or am i just noticing the word usage more b/c it’s a bprlive segment?

Giles, sweet visual aid! Here’s my response:

As history speaks through our stories and actions, its poetry is written into our minds and hearts, and it continues to forge our world and alter us, often changing first our perceptions.

Regular habits lose some meaning to become imbued with others, from subtle to blaring.

Readers and listeners of history learn messages that do not trap us in the past, nor isolate us in the present but free us in the future.

Of all the worlds that could and should have been, we have and know intimately only the world that was and strive to nurture it into better health.

Appeared frazzled, she noted.
The boy wasn’t quite put together. Ready to
Launch into a new dawn,
T-radio, T-girls, T-shirts,
An era full of sleepless nights begins with this.

the blog post, and it made me write
here, in response.
BPR may have taken a small hiatus, but we have not for-
gotten about you. we are
busy, but can always find time to show some love. it’s
as easy as one click away.
