Re-Creating confusion

A response in not as much avoidance of the Daily Post’s Writing Prompt https://dailypost.wordpress.com/prompts/recreate/

Recreate, eh?

Wait…what does it mean to re-create something?

DMy new toyid it get broken and now need to be fixed?  Like my big girl camera that I was going to take on my trip next week which is now broken?  But it can’t be re-created, only fixed.

So, what can you actually re-create?

Maybe if I didn’t back up the essay I wrote for my class and it disappeared, I would have to re-create it.  But would it really ever be the same?  Can you actually re-create it if you lost the original?

Doesn’t creation imply uniqueness?  So how can something be RE-created?

Ok, just a minute.  The dictionary says “to give new life or freshness to.”  But isn’t that just to “refresh” or “freshen up”?

Maybe I just need to re-create myself another cup of coffee…

Better now?  Re-created, man!

  1. she’s broken?! Oh no….

    • Well, it turned out not as broken as I thought. The SD slot locking mechanism is broken, but a new card should still work – but as my old card was broken (didn’t know that) and the new card I bought is NOT compatible with my camera (didn’t know that either), the broken isn’t as big a deal. I did, however, still get a new (new to me) camera today!!

  2. I keep giggling at big girl camera 🙂
    I agree, recreation is … vague.

  3. If you created it, then after some pondering, you decide you don’t quite like it, then … you re-create it to suit yourself. Some people actually re-create themselves, even. Or at least their image, since one cannot re-create, I don’t think, their DNA. 🎨
