Sitting on this park bench, I am supposed to feel cold but somehow, I feel nothing except exhaustion and resignation. It’s been a long night. Part of me wants to go somewhere, lie down, and sleep it off. I have the money. I can afford a high-end hotel room, munch on room service, and possibly let my rage out on the room yet somehow, the other part of me just want to sit here, enjoy this winter scene, careless of getting arrested for vagrancy. This is a beautiful world. I only wish it’s not filled with chaos, frustration, and irritation.

Each week, Rochelle Wisoff-Fields-Addicted to Purple hosts Friday Fictioneers where we’re challenged to write a piece of flash fiction in 100 words, more or less, based on the picture above.
We can do with less chaos, frustration, and irritation. Absolutely! Well done!

Life can be like that, I think the silence and muffling nature of snow can lead to melancholy

I agree. It’s strange what nature and solitude can lead to.

Every moment is worth the time to enjoy. A place away from the world in chaos is a luxury. You express the frustration of many in your few words.

Well written. You capture those moments when outside pressures seem to overwhelm our own efforts and everything feels futile.
