Finding Healing Through Enacting and Screaming
A self-reflective story on the power of expressing emotions in relationships

Three Things Challenge #M252
Words to include - ENACT, RELATION, SCREAM


I had always been shy and introverted, preferring to keep to myself rather than engage in social activities. But when I landed a lead role in a school play, I knew I had to step out of my comfort zone and enact my character to the best of my abilities.

As the rehearsals began, I found myself building a relationship with my co-stars, becoming more comfortable with each passing day. However, there was one scene in which my character had to scream at the top of her lungs, expressing her frustration and anger toward the other characters.

The thought of screaming in front of others terrified me. I had always been self-conscious about my voice and worried about what others would think of me. But the director pushed me to give it my all, to let go of my fears and become fully immersed at the moment.

So, when the time came for that scene, I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and let out the most blood-curdling scream I could muster. The room fell silent for a moment before erupting into applause and cheers.

That moment was a turning point for me. It showed me that sometimes we have to face our fears and let go of our insecurities to truly grow and develop. It taught me the importance of pushing myself out of my comfort zone and building relations with those around me. And most importantly, it reminded me that enacting a character, whether on stage or in real life, requires a willingness to be vulnerable and embrace our emotions fully.

"In the spotl͏ight's embrace, a dancer takes fl͏ight w͏ith the cl͏ick of her heels, weav͏ing a graceful dream on the stage." In response to dVerse Poetry Form: Flamenca or Seguidilla Gitana For today’s poetry form, we are writing to the Flamenca or Seguidilla Gitana which carries a fast staccato rhythm. It is a variation of the Seguidilla, which was discussed here, including the definition of assonance. The elements of the Flamenca are: *stanzaic, can be written in any number of quintains. *syllabic, 6-6-5-6-6 syllables per line to imitate the rapid click of the heels of a dancer. *Line 2 and Line 5 assonate. (same vowel sounds) Teatros del Canal, Madrid, Spain Heels clicking, swift delight, On the stage, she takes flight. In spotlight's soft gleam, Her dance, a graceful dream, Grace in each step's invite. V͏is͏it͏ing Teatros del Canal ͏in Madr͏id, Spa͏in, for a flamenco performance was an exper͏ience I'll treasure forever. As I entered the elegant theater, th

Window Gazing

"A poem reflecting on what we see from our windows and what we wish we could see." In response to Poetics: Window Gazing Through my window, I see the world, A picture of life unfurled, The hustle and bustle of the street, A never-ending, restless beat. I see the sun shining, the clouds drifting, The leaves swaying, the flowers blooming, But beyond this, I wish to see, A world where love and kindness are key. I wish to see a world where people care, Where no one is left out to despair, Where hope and joy are found in every heart, And every soul plays a positive part. I wish to see a world where nature thrives, Where the oceans are clean and the forests alive, Where the air is pure, and the sky is blue, And the beauty of the earth shines through. Perhaps it's not the view that needs to change, But rather the lens through which I arrange, My thoughts and feelings, hopes and dreams, To find the beauty in life's extremes. So through my window, I'll keep looking out, An
