"In every generation there is a chosen one.
She alone will stand against the vampires, the demons and the forces of darkness.
She is the Slayer."
Buffy Summers knows this tale by heart, and no matter how hard she tries to be just a "normal girl", she can not escape from her destiny. Thankfully, she is not alone in her quest to save the world, as she has the help of her friends, the hilarious (and surprisingly quite effective) evil-fighting team called "The Scooby Gang". Together, Buffy and company will slay their demons, survive one apocalypse after another, attend high school and college, and above all, understand that growing up can truly be Hell... sometimes literally.
So what does that have to do with us?
Well, I was thinking. What if I wrote something similar about me? What if you wrote something similar about you? What would it say? And it occured to me that something like this might be helpful. We might learn something about ourselves, something important.
So I made it into a kind of a fill in the blanks template. I wondered what we might come up with if we played around with it... and would it be something that might "work" or be helpful in some way. How about it guys, wanna give it a go?

"In every home there is a Mother. She alone will work with the children, the household, and the dirt of life. Mother knows this tale by heart, and no matter how hard she tries to be just a woman, she cannot escape from her destiny.

Love the stories so far. But am having a very hard time coming up with my own words for the blanks. Not sure why this is. I'll try to come up with something.
LOL! These are just great! Now it's my turn to come up with something.... thinking.... thinking..... probably over thinking... how unusual for me....
Love it Michelle! It's been raining and I have the muddy paw prints of 8 pets across my floor, counter, couch. Yikes! Your post really spoke to me this morning!
