RE: Enlightenment - a 5 minute Free Write - prompt "Pattern Recognition"

Ya the writing bit was 5 minutes. I do it differently each time, but often think about the prompt for a while on my lunchbreak and when I have an idea, I tease it out a bit in my head, on what I want to say and where the story will go. The story can sometimes evolve and not go where I was planning, I just kind of blurt it out if you will..

For this one, I searched some images on Pixabay before I started writing it and that guy with the pattern on his face showed up in results, so I kind of based the narrative around that and Nepal..
