I stood and looked at these for a minute. I looked around. 😳

And this is where YOU come in.
😲 What happened? 😲

A disability that always hinder me from moving, a freedom to do what ever i want. My crowd seems like a huge lifeless land that leaves me out from the dream of fitting in. But reality struck on me, i may not be ideal but my disability wont define me. The thing that support me would not be a factor to be called ugly. I would not leave it to become perfect in their eyes. But i will use it to support me from chasing my dreams and as i stand in this vast dull land, the sun still shines giving me rays of hope that someday this land where i'm standing would be full of life and be able to be me.

"Are you serious?" Sam looked me up and down. "You honestly think it'll work?"
"Would I bring crutches if I didn't? Don't even ask how I got them," I said. I knew he'd ask, so I quickly shoved them in the back seat and shut the car door. I got in the passenger seat and lit a cigarette.
"The best way to avoid suspicion is to draw attention to a particular detail," I said between puffs. Sam just drove.
"You've crazy, man," he muttered.
"Maybe," I said. "Maybe I am."
"The local bank was apparently robbed today by a man on crutches," the news anchor said on the radio with an obvious tone of surprise in her voice. "It is still unclear how he was able to evade the police that arrived at the scene within just minutes!"
I was laughing like a maniac when Sam threw the crutches from the car window mid-drive, still sweating from the adrenaline rush. We were on some dead-end street in the middle of nowhere, with twenty grand in a bag under my seat, and not a single police car on our tail.
The End

This is actually my first stab at a writing prompt on steemit. I normally write from random inspiration. Lately it's been physical pain so... big on creepy dystopia.

Hahaha :) I submit my entries depending on my schedule and when I find out about a certain contest. Like with this one, I had a few things planned already for the week when I found out about it so the entry had to be just in time. However, in a previous contest I participated in, I posted my entry about 3 days prior to the deadline cos I knew about it for sometime.

Cool. Cool. I'm not so organized... yet... I'd like to maybe skip a week so I can be ready at the BEGINNING of the contest to post. It seems (on OpenMic and Karaoke at least) that the earlier you get in, the best chance at getting popular vote. 😍

Hi @carrieallen, nice idea for a contest. The photo reminds me of the time when I saw a basket of laundry neatly placed along the side of a major road that left me scratching my head...

There are SO many things like this! It's like... are people 'rapturing' or what? 😵
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
That's not a 'bad' thing right? I am still struggling with the meaning of the term 'rapturing' as it is used in modern day conversation :p That image of yours is SO cute it makes me wonder if you have a set of 'stickers' for your various expressions...
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

No... Not bad...
You can google 'rapture' and you'll get a better idea. I just used it like is was currently happening... 😏
It's a Christian ideology, which basically 'sounds' like people just disappear! And how would those of us left even KNOW? Because, of course, all bases are covered. Rule of Rapture: Once you go, all memories of you are erased so no one even remembers you!
Now, about my little memoji gal up there...
I made her at https://www.bitmoji.com/ and you can too!
You simply download whatever app is appropriate and start creating your avatar/bitmoji (I call mine my memoji). Then you have access to a BUNCH of cool little pictures. They constantly add to them.
I use them full size for my posts, but shrink them down to 150px for comments. I also always save them... just in case Bitmoji stops existing...
Here's a couple of helpful posts I made (a while ago, so don't upvote them. 😀) that are SUPER helpful too. Plus, you can see a bunch of my memojis for examples. 😃

It is a little sad that a specific post may not get seen by the time it pays out (I may have a few of these). 😏 BUT! You can always follow the author and hope for more gems.
