She was doing research on a topic called, “Is
tendency to help directly related to innocence?”
She was going through the photographs she
had taken.
A little girl pleading her mother to let
her carry the baggage... A small boy carefully holding his little sister’s
hands while crossing the road. A horse dutifully pouring water to the green
grass…
She asked herself how people turn selfish.
Is that because they are influenced by the corrupt World outside or is it the
disproportionate multiplication of self love? She wondered why dogs are always
loyal and not men?
She sighed and went to sleep.
Great take on the prompt. And something to think about there. Well done.
ReplyDeleteA really interesting take on the prompt. I love the idea of her research. A very minor point- there are a few typos you might want to look at (his little sister's hands; she sighed; pleading with her mother).

A fine offering for the prompt.
ReplyDeleteWonder what her conclusion was?

I enjoyed your story very much and the message you conveyed. We do treat each other badly. I hope you don't mind I saw a few boo-boo's the following I think you meant 'his'.
ReplyDeleteholding her little sister’s hands
world is capitalized and I think you meant sigh instead of signed.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Interesting stream of consciousness piece. Some things we may never know.
