The Fabric of Our Lives // Writing Prompt

*Every week in an effort to think outside my own box, get/think up a new writing prompt. I post them here just in case you want to write with me. You can find more writing prompts here at the bottom of the page. 

What kind of fabric are we creating for our lives? This may be cheesy, but bear with me. Are we too carefully weaving, anxious that we will rip or tear or lose a button? Or are we too loosely woven, unable to provide any real purpose or benefit to anyone? Is there too much risk? Where is the middle and how do we get there? Or are we always playing this balancing act of trial and error?
