Bitsy's Musings
Bio
My name is SJ Brown, welcome to my mind's musings. Sometimes I reflect on personal experiences, sometimes I pen a bit of fiction, and sometimes I just let my mind wander (and wonder) letting those thoughts guide my writing.

The Mule’s Last Apology
He sat there staring at it like it was going to jump up and bite him like a rattlesnake. Remy McAlister had a lot of experience with rattlesnakes growing up in the backwoods of Alabama. He and his twin brother, Rom, saw and caught their fair share traipsing around the woods behind their house. Their Mom’s father, whom the boys called Papaw in appropriate Alabama drawl, taught the twins how to catch those snakes and how to safely cut the heads and tails off. Much to the twins's mother’s disdain, they kept those tails in a Sketchers shoe box under their bunk bed.

A goddess creates "Me Day"
Many of us were taught to love others before we loved ourselves. “Love thy neighbor” and “the more you give love, the more you receive” were common phrases I heard while growing up. I spent most of my life thinking that I had to give all my love away like a monk taking a vow of poverty if I were truly to receive love from someone else.
