Three Things Challenge #M830 | pensitivity101 (wordpress.com)

In a small village where time slowed to a gentle rhythm, Clara loved to wander the cobblestone streets. Each turn revealed a hidden garden or a weathered statue, stories etched in stone. One sunny afternoon, she found herself in front of a quaint pottery shop. The scent of damp clay wafted through the open door, inviting her in.

Inside, rows of pots gleamed under warm light, each one a testament to a life spent shaping dreams. An elderly potter sat at his wheel, his hands dancing as he coaxed the clay into form. Clara watched, captivated, pondering the stories that each piece could tell.

“Ah, my dear,” the potter smiled, catching her gaze. “Every pot has a purpose, just like every wanderer has a path.”

Inspired, Clara stepped forward, her heart full. “What do you see in your creations?”

He paused, a soft grin playing on his lips. “Possibility. Each pot waits for someone to fill it with their dreams.”

With newfound resolve, Clara chose a small, unassuming pot. Maybe it was time to embrace her own story, to mold her life with intention, just like the potter with his clay. As she left the shop, the pot cradled carefully in her arms, she knew she would no longer merely wander; she would create a journey all her own.
