Topical Tuesday #17 The Time To Tell Them

Topic : The Time To Tell Them

I struggled a lot coming up a concise title for this week’s topic but I think this will cover it. This week’s topic is twofold.

You are invited to write a blog entry, a letter or even a poem (if that’s your thing) to someone. This someone could be someone you know very well or it could be a stranger you met briefly but who had a great impact on you. It could be to your partner, your parents or your high school teacher who believed in you. It could even be to someone you have never met before but whose actions you read or heard about and changed the way you see something. Your post should be about how they affected you and how one thing (maybe even more than one thing) they did, big or small, gave you strength, inspired you or changed your life. Tell them how you feel and how much they mean to you. It doesn’t matter if you have told them before, do it again.

Once you are done, try to find them and tell them. If you don’t feel comfortable telling them in person hand them the letter or send them the link to your post. You can even send them the letter anonymously.

We hope you enjoy this week’s Topical Tuesday. Remember to come back next week or subscribe to our RSS feed to be notified automatically when the next topic is up.

Topical Tuesday #17 The Time to Tell Them Dear Andre, I remember your face so vividly - those twinkling eyes, and laughing smile most of all. You had the most amazing skin. You always smelled so good when you gave me "dos besos". Thats what I remember most about you. That, and your enormous heart. I had seen you in the bar a few times during the course of the first month there. I thought you extremely handsome, and extremely funny. But you first approached me on my lowest day. I had been mugged, and had lost a great deal of……

I have to admit to cheating a little on this topic. I posted a private entry a short while ago, which was only available to “amigos”. It is now available to the public for this very day

I will get mine up on the right day soon, sorry I had loads of work to do yesterday (was up till half 4 then up at 7 for work gulp). I will try and get it done tonight, assuming I don’t fall asleep as soon as I get home.

Sorry all :(

Sarah :: We won’t hold this against you. LOL You could post it on a different day I suppose, it wouldn’t be that bad. I don’t think it’s about being on time, it’s more like being on topic. Maybe I’m wrong (so Eliza, please correct me) but can’t people post TT entries until the next topic is up?
