Answer:
m very excited to present the winner of our Nature Flash Fiction Contest, from regular contributor Brook Bhagat. Someone might look at the strange format and say it’s more of a poem than a short story, but my favorite poems are the ones that tell a story as well. Plus I liked it so this is the one I’m choosing. Congratulations Brook! And thanks to everyone who participated. A lot of great stories.
I understand the funeral I have the address the dress the time
it begins with smiling cameras and ends with paper tablecloths, cold cuts and deviled eggs downstairs
even worse is the sunshine, all those empty minutes left
I would have lost it
if not
For the hike, still in our black together,
you and Ben, the boy,
me and my sister arm in arm
down the easy path at
Garden of the Gods,
lighter than before, noticing the homes
of birds in the rocks and remembering
we are just a moment, fragments
of a mystery that flies and sings.

Explanation:
Check out the photos...I'm not pretty but dont judge the baby...
Was it a wasted couple months? Was it all there was for us? I wasn't ready, can I be honest? I never knew what I had until I lost it...
I've been keeping things inside, taking up space until I got someone I could open my mind up to. It worked pretty good until now, but stuff kind of getting serious. Everyone's got people they see through but I see through everyone.
I only think about you on the weekdays and weekends, only in the mornings and evenings, only when I wake up and sleep in..I'd go to hell and back if I could go there with you. You're so bad for my health but I just can't help myself....
So it goes, my summer is almost over. Ive stayed up day and night, waiting by the phone. I wait and debate if I should call you up, and you still dont call for days and days. You make it look so easy, turn around and leave me, so then again, I'm left alone to tear myself apart. Do you ever stay up all night because you feel you're not enough? When you're in the middle of a really bad dream then you decide that that's enough, so you try to tell yourself the fears are all gone, but you just cannot wake up for the fear its reality?
No, I cant let you go, fear you might slip away. When I'm nervous I can't slow down. Right now, I'm stressing out because everything that I love is everything that I lose, and I don't wanna lose you. Every time I hold on, it slips through my hands. Every time I come on too strong, I feel you pull back. I gotta learn to let go..
That's some nice writing, you could consider pursuing that.

Wednesday, Mar. 17th: Today is “Working Women’s Day.” Recently, we also celebrated “International Women's Day”. Many people feel that being a stay-at-home-mom is a full-time job. Do you agree or disagree and why? Please write a 7 sentence paragraph.
Answer:
Explanation:
No, being a stay at home mom is not a full time job. some say It's a blessing to be able to focus only on raising a child. Let me remind you that the stay at home mother was the one who wanted to bring into the world. Parenting may be tough, but so is camping or throwing a get-together with friends or numerous things we do not call jobs. Staying at home and caring for others rather than working for a living is obviously a desirable lifestyle, but it is not a "career"; people who care for their elderly parents do not announce to the world that they have entered that as a profession. It's no different when it comes to caring for your own little one.

please help
Answer:
Self-love means accepting yourself as you are in this very moment for everything that you are. It means accepting your emotions for what they are and putting your physical, emotional and mental well-being first. Mark me as brainliest if it helped
Explanation:
Answer:
Self love is what we’re all searching for – in our work, our relationships, and our lives. Sadly, we spend most of our time thinking that someone or something else can give us what only we can give ourselves. To be truly fulfilled in life and relationships, we have to find the love within us and give it to ourselves. No other person, material possession, or accomplishment can do it. It’s up to us.
Especially when it comes to relationships, self love is essential. One of the best gifts we can give to the people around us is to love ourselves in a genuine way. As my mom used to say to me when I was young, “You can’t love anyone else, until you love yourself.”
