Today's Writing Prompt: Public

On TV shows such as The Biggest Loser, people work on losing weight, in front of millions of viewers. Is there any personal battle that you would willingly fight publicly?

I prefer to be a very private person. "Reality" shows baffle me. I believe in putting your best foot forward.

Isn't that why we blog? To put our best and worst out there?
I publicly fight my personal battle of faith - I know so many pastor's wives that think they have to be perfect.... I think that way a lot too, but I break down every once in awhile and show my human side with a vengance.

I salute their courage...those biggest losers. But no, not me. I prefer to fight my personal battles in private.

I'm not willing to do much publicly, let alone fight any personal battles. Like some who've posted, I'm a private person.

The closest I've come to publicizing any personal battle is on my blog where I document my efforts to write and create art.

No, there is nothing I want to fight in public. I am constantly criticizing myself, not negatively but in a way to push myself. I will deal with my writing blocks and my distant family bonds in my own time and space. And I know only that is better for me, not continual vigilance from some outsider.
