daydreaming

Daily writing prompt
Invent a holiday! Explain how and why everyone should celebrate.

You know who probably never gets a party? People who are homeless.

So DOD or Day of the Downtrodden would be a national (and hopefully international) holiday where anyone or everyone who finds themselves down ‘n out and without a home, is going to live it up.

They’d receive a hot shower and a fresh set of clothes. Then a nap in the comfiest of beds prior to the party.

Then they’d either go out on the town with friends or they could choose to stay in and have a meal, cake and a party.

Don’t ask me the logistics or who would pay for it, it’s just something I dreamt up.

We went to Paint Lake yesterday to hike the loop out past the beach, amazing temps for November!
So serene

  5. What an awesome idea, CJ. That is so sweet of you to consider. Our church has a dinner once a year for the homeless where steak and lobster is served in an elegant setting.

  7. Great idea!
    We once were at a party for the down and outies in Stockholm. They loved it, and we loved it. We were amazed by how many appeared.
    By the way, we just blogged about daydreaming, too
