Charli’s Carrot Ranch Prompt, this week:
April 15, 2021, prompt: In 99 words (no more, no less), write a story that seeds generosity. Who is generous and why? Think of generosity as planting a future outcome. Go where the prompt leads!
Technophobe
“No, no, Mum, just scroll down. Tap the one you want.” Nisha rolled her eyes.
She’d been on the phone with her mother for an hour now, trying to help her set up her new phone, so she could enjoy the family video calls, along with everyone else.
But this hour was worth it.
Finally, Mum would be able to see her family, regularly. Nisha hadn’t seen her for over six months.
Just then her phone beeped.
“Good to see you, Mum! Now, if you could just hold the phone higher. I don’t want to see up your nose…”
But I Smile Anyway...

This is it, Charli. Sometimes we have to be generous with our time, to reap the greater reward 💜

Yeah! Just my experiences! 😉 But we have not to worry. Speech recognition will change the situation. But not here, not with this dialect Lol Yesterday i have seen a new Alexa advertising. Alexa now is speaking Bavarian too. Lol Here in this region we are very far away from “simple Bavarian dialect”. Michael

For sure, Sis! But – be warned – here its sounding like the barking of dogs. Its a mix between Bavarian, and the much more adorable Czech language. While the Czechs speak these sounds softly, here it is a kind of “warning bark”. Lol I came across this through this Czech song.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ewayedk-63Q&list=RDEwayedk-63Q&start_radio=1
