Thank you for reading the story, “Canned Pink Salmon, Prunes, and Dried Apricots.”
Its takeaway is: Memory is a way of holding onto things you love.
Now grab your notebook or journal and if this line evokes something in you, write down what you are thinking.
If not, here are three prompts – borrowed from the story – to write about instead:
- What is your favorite place to shop? Chronicle some of your amazing finds from that store.
- Think of a favorite person – living or dead – and write about the many things that make you think of them.
- Now change the perspective and write about what things make your loved one think of you.
As always, write about one of these prompts or all of them. There is no right or wrong, just what feels best to you.
