Writing prompt of the day:
54. Dear Diary: Write a poem or short story about a diary entry you’ve read or imagined.
Hmmm….. One of the blogs that I follow is Therapy Bits, written by blind woman who has been diagnosed with DID. Now and then, the alters surge forward and comment on things that are happening around them – much like the alters that made these YouTube presentations. I believe strongly that all of us have different facets in their personalities, sometimes vastly different depending on the roles we are asked to play throughout our lives -- I know that in me I have a very well-developed Susie Homemaker facet and for a period of years, that pattern of behavior totally swamped my interactions with friends and family. The idea that these facets could breakout and become so fully developed that they become totally distinct and real personalities is something that I find fascinating
And I wonder where Susie Homemaker went and if she could return one day....
