WOW!!!!!! Darlene! This is genius!!! What a fantastic story! Not only is it entertaining (and had me giggling with the live broadcasting - but it's also a pointed commentary on so much of what's wrong these days. People are so easily hiding behind a false (or at least, only partial) story of who they are on social media. We don't see the whole story, only what they want us to see.

And it is having a negative impact on our ability to have solid, real relationships with others. Plus it puts a lot of pressure on children who are witnessing Mama needing to be perfect or the kid needs to be perfect or the plate of food needs to be perfect for that exactly right camera shot ...

It's hard to just be ourselves now and not feel the pressure of all these so-called perfect people.

So this was brilliant!

I had no idea it would end as it did. So clever and so funny! Great plot twist!

You are SO good at these! Keep 'em coming!!

And thank you so much for your kind shoutout and for sharing this prompt! 💜
