There's this really neat contest at FreewriteHouse:
And you can find the post here:
Hurrah! It's #ZapFic50Friday! Week 11! Write me a story in precisely 50 words!
The gist is that you get a weekly prompt (this week's prompt is JOURNEY) and you write a story about that prompt using only 50 words. Here is my entry for this week's contest:
THE JOURNEY OF LIFE
From conception, ejected from the womb.
Learning to walk and communicate.
Social growth, learning independence.
Building character, gaining knowledge.
Falling in love.
Becoming a parent.
Realizing how little you know trying to raise a child.
Struggling to find balance.
Joys of grandchildren.
Dealing with old age.
The Journey of Life.

The journey of life.
Though seems long, you are born today
Time flies, adulthood comes Knocking.
And then, there is death at a corner
Waiting to strike
@shadess, yes it seems in youth you can't wait to get older. Then time gathers speed until you just wish it would slow down.
Thanks for stopping by.
Neat! You brilliantly captured the whole life of a person in 50 words.
It's indeed a journey of life.
Nicely done, @blueeyes8960! 😁
Thank you @kemmyb. Not an action story, like your excellent one, but it is indeed a story where everyone writes their own ending.
Thanks for your support.
Nicely done. :D So true.. when you get to be a new Parent, there ain't no training manual! LMAO. All you can do is go for it, and hope you don't screw up.
Don't have any Grands yet, and I am good with it. LoL At least for the duration till she is over 18... like a lot over.
Well, I've got a few years on ya! Plenty of time for those grands. All spoil and no toil, lol!
