Welcome to another fantastic Friday, members! I (Vella) can hardly believe how quickly this week has flown by. In times like these, it can be challenging to keep up with everything. So, to keep myself grounded, I’ve reignited my journaling habit. Interestingly, member @Babybird has shared some brilliant questions to help us nurture self-awareness. Have a go at them here! Now, let’s move on to our final riddle for the week:
A group of privates were standing in the blistering sun facing due west. Their sergeant shouted at them: Right turn! About turn! Left turn! In which direction are they now facing?
Can you unravel this one, members? If you believe you have the answer, head over to our riddle masters thread here. If you get it correct, you’ll get a shout-out in tomorrow's newsletter!
