Daily writing prompt
Scour the news for an entirely uninteresting story. Consider how it connects to your life. Write about that.
I have a story from my local paper. It’s not uninteresting, but I’m going with it anyway because it’s rather… unusual.
A few weeks ago a local bear (yes a bear; I live in a rural area) got a metal bucket stuck to his head and couldn’t get it off. Every time someone tried to help him he’d get scared and run away. The poor guy had it on his head for two days in really hot weather. No food, no water. 😢
At last he got so tired of running that he laid down and let himself be helped. The police and some locals got the bucket off his head, got him some water, and then he perked up and was off on his way again. 🥰
Can’t imagine how scared he was, not able to see or drink any water. Hopefully Pooh Bear won’t go sticking his face in any more buckets.
