Working Towards the Dream

     Sitting behind the glass, apart from the hustle and bustle, deeply engrossed in the intricacies of anatomy, she prepares for her future.  The world passes by oblivious to her dream.



      This post was written for the Trifextra challenge where we are asked for 33 of our own words inspired by the above picture. We are required to give proper attribution to the photographer by providing a link to the photo, not just to Trifecta.

  1. I love that she has the whole place to herself and the only other person visible is a passerby outside of the diner.

    1. humantriumphant, anatomy can be a difficult subject. I studied a bit of it while at school for graphic design. While being isolated in silence is probably ideal, anywhere is good which is proved by this picture and my story. Thank You for stopping by and for your sweet comments! ♥

  8. I like how you've personalized 'her' future, playing on the isolation.

  9. I love how she is dreaming...not studying, not thinking, not so many other choices...she is dreaming and obviously working toward that.
    An entire story. Excellent.

  10. I like that her story forms a full circle yet, it stands on its' own without needing affirmation from beyond her table and her dreams. Great work! :)

  13. "The world passes by oblivious to her dream."

    Awesome line! Isn't that so true? Chasing dreams is such an individual pursuit, and there's even a bit of loneliness involved. Your piece brings out that feeling perfectly.

    1. Martha, I could concentrate as long as I had ear buds in my ears and could get in the zone no matter where I was. Although some projects demand quiet! Thank you for stopping by and for your sweet comments! ♥

  15. The world passes by oblivious to all our dreams, that can be frustrating but also inspirational.

    Enjoyed
