IMPROMPTU #96: 13 Moons

Today's inspiration brought to you by Friday the 13th, Day of the Goddess. Here's a quote from Chani Nicholas about this day: 

"The number 13 has always been associated with the Goddess as there are 13 moons in a year. The word for Friday derives from the Latin phrase "dies Veneris", which simply means "Day of Venus." Friday is also thought to be named after the ancient goddess Frigg and/or Freya, as in "Freya's Day" or "Frigg's Day". This is a day of luck and blessings. The only bad thing about Friday the 13th is the misogynistic misinformation that keeps us from celebrating its namesake and power."

Your prompt is "13 moons." 

Make it wild. Make it ugly. Make it sweet. Make it. 

IMPROMPTU #78: Stronger than I've Been Before

This time last year, looking at this purple sunrise, I remember thinking I was EXACTLY where I was supposed to be. And being there, everything I experienced while I was there, led me into the next part of my life, when I returned to Vancouver after 3 months on the Big Island, when my 7-year relationship ended for good, when I fell apart and put myself back together, and arrived here today. Stronger than I've been before. (Thanks Ariana Grande.) The light feels so good after so much darkness.

Today's prompt: "A door closed. The next thing I knew..."
