Love it! I'm curious, did you write the story then find the picture or did the picture inspire the story?

Karah, thanks for reading 😊. I wrote the story based partly on another image of a climber atop a chimney, and partly based on how an adventurer-influencer (I am tempted to put that within quotes😄) uses YouTube to promote himself.

I am always wondering who took those photos of that nimble young woman doing yoga or the guy hanging off a ledge. So this story 😊.

I found this particular image on Unsplash and felt it matched the story.

Thank you 😊😊😊😊 for reading and for the encouragement.

On a side note, B made me smile. It is what my dad calls me. Keep at it and I will also call you Daddu. 😄

I wish I was wise to warrant the title. I am just old and unwise.

Thanks Jayne. 🙂. It is quite depressing isn't it! Sometimes I think it may be because I am not young enough to just enjoy something without questioning it, but often I just feel there is something sinister under it all and we are trapped in the net. Well, we are actually!
