		<title>Cancer and Me</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The title pretty much says it all as far as why I have not posted anything new for the last 11 months. I have put off writing this post long enough and it&#8217;s time for me to get back into posting more regularly.
In February this year I was diagnosed with cervical cancer as my brother [...]]]></description>

		<title>Image Writing Prompt #2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I had a birthday a few days ago and received a beautiful card from a friend. The image on the card holds a lot of meaning and different people will see different things or experience different thoughts and feelings.

For me the image represents healing. The woman holding the ball of light is both the healer [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Year - New Writing Prompt</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since the year is new, I wanted to write a post with something new or different than I normally write about. I have thought of using images to spark creativity in the past but never did take action on that thought. Today seemed like a good time to explore using an image as a writing [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy New Year</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As 2006 comes to an end and 2007 is on our doorsteps, I wanted to take a moment to send out a good wish of fortunate circumstances for anyone who happens to read this.  My 2006 started out somewhat hopeful but realistically I didn&#8217;t expect anything &#8220;big&#8221; to occur; I simply wasn&#8217;t in the right [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why this Season?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are seasons for everything, just as there are reasons for everything.  I&#8217;ve come to the recent conclusion that all questions are important but that probably the most valuable one of all is &#8220;why&#8221;.   In posting here on pointless matters, questionable beauty, purpose, definition, and commitment, an element that I’ve probably alluded to many times [...]]]></description>

		<title>Questionable Beauty</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I never seriously considered it before but I imagine that if I tried to describe every detail of a picture, I would need much more than a thousand words.  I do tend to be wordy, not only in writing but when I speak also.  My daughter, I say with pride, is a wonderful artist.  Unlike [...]]]></description>

		<title>Definition in Writing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am more successful with my writing and my life right now.  The process of writing and creating has opened new doors for me.
I am clearer and more definite which is clarifying my writing purpose. 
I am open.  I am open to possibility, I am open to adventure, I am open to all things, and here [...]]]></description>

		<title>Commitment</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are moments when I feel like I should be “committed”.  I have always run from those moments, until recently.  The term “commitment issues” has always frightened me.  That is as honest as I can be.  
I have feared commitment because I did not understand commitment.  I now have no need to look that word up in a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pointless Matters</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What is the point of writing, if the title is pointless matters?  Pointless matters, is my way of exploring, it is a title that gives me permission to write aimlessly.  The reasons are unclear to me at the moment.  I confess I am currently feeling a little muddled.  I do know, however, that I did [...]]]></description>

		<title>Writing With Purpose</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My name is Ruth, and to further introduce myself, I will (with hesitancy) say that I am a conflicted writer that has a history of taking common, everyday events, ideas, feelings, and words, and turning them into personal stumbling blocks.  Now that I’ve revealed that much, I feel this might be a good time to [...]]]></description>
