Second blog -- answers to an ocean of prompts

"Failure is unimportant. It takes courage to make a fool of yourself."
CHARLIE CHAPLIN

Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet
confinement of your aloneness
to learn
anything or anyone
that does not bring you alive
is too small for you.

David Whyte

This is my supplementary blog in which I will post entries written for prompts.

In response to "A Book's Popularity Doesn't Insure Quality"

I'm with you, Joy. The more highly acclaimed a book directly impacts its appeal to me...that is less appealing. So many reviews and other author, etc., recommendations are bought these days, who knows the truth? I do read a lot and usually stick with authors I know, but also like you, I do have a loyalty to my groups.

I hear that all the time Joy

, why don't you take your phone with you to the bathroom, that's where the most accidents happen. Why didn't take your phone when you're in the backyard... It's a constant nag from Vic and Amanda.

Thanks 🌸 pwheeler - love joy peace

. Yes, our own not falling while walking Olympics is a great idea, as my son instructs me, "Mom, when you walk out to the front to get the mail from the mailbox, make sure you have your cell with you." Lol!

In response to "Olympics and Activities"

I'm with you about getting authentic reviews, there's nothing worse than having a review that only repeats what you wrote and tells you good job. GRRRR

We could start our own Olympics walk, talk and not fall, Joy

, me and 🌸 pwheeler - love joy peace

. I'm sure we could find a few more interested.

In response to "Olympics and Activities"

"Right now, I am into the sport of walking without falling or stumbling." Maybe in the special Olympics?

You have a good sense of humor about it!

Your husband sounds like a wonderful person and watching the Olympics with him sounds like a great thing to do together as a couple. I'm glad you have those nice memories.

I appreciate your attitude about judging contests. It is hard. I want everyone to win.

In response to "Powers"

It would be an awesome gift to share with lots of people if we could.

It's a fun story, I could easily see your son hovering over you. Nicely woven, Joy!

Simply Me

Yes, you are not the only one. Many people say they had not-too-great a childhood. I guess life itself is sweet and sour and so is childhood.

Why not invite him in and offer him coffee and cake instead? Most muses hide their tricks unless we encourage them.

In response to "Childhood"

My childhood was not the best time in my life with the exception of maybe a handful of experiences that rate a high score. But, those moments of bliss endure front and center in my memory and I choose to cherish them.
