Sometimes it appears innate within rather than sought after.

Friday Flash 55 is hosted each week by <br /><br />G-Man (Mr. Knowitall) whose blog you can find linked at the end of my post. He doesn't supply us with an image, so we get to use our own selections. The prompt is to write something in 55 words, post it, then go to G-Man's blog and leave a comment. This week was the first I could not easily whittle down my original, but once accomplished, I decided to post both. It was an iinteresting exercise that I may do again in the future.
