"February 25, 2020"    "Day 2657: February 25, 2020Prompt: "What makes your heart sing loudest? What makes your heart beat strongest?" This is prompt #4 from Here Are The 50 Best Journaling Prompts You Will Ever Read Or Need by Jeremy Golldberg." The thing that makes my heart beat fastest is not a thing at all. It is a Person. He goes by many names but I know Him as Jesus, God, and Holy Spirit. He makes my heart beat. In fact He is my heart beat. I am so pleased with this prompt today because I planned on ducking out of work, but this prompt reminded me of what I am working for. I don't work for me. I work for Jesus. I will report to work later today or go in tomorrow refreshed and with a renewed outlook to get me through the lulls. I get times as a person with bi-polar disorder that I get a little flat and don't feel like going into work. I had some stuff to do here at home today so taking some time off to do it helped. However my attitude was headed south on me. My spirits were going down and this prompt helped. I'm fired up again and ready to conquer the world for my Savior. Prompt: “For most of human history, ‘literature,’ both fiction and poetry, has been narrated, not written—heard, not read. So fairy tales, folk tales, stories from the oral tradition, are all of them the most vital connection we have with the imaginations of the ordinary men and women whose labor created our world.”~ Angela CarterAs a child, we experienced stories orally initially. What was your favorite story from your childhood? As an adult do you listen to audio books with the same excitement?" I remember when I was a child, my dad use to tell stories about his childhood. I doubt that they were true but they may well have been. I would sit and listen for hours, though I don't remember any of the stories. I do know that I knew early in life that I was to be a writer. My dad knew it too and tried to encourage it. He tried very hard to get some of my early stuff published and I believe a piece or two was published in the local paper. I had a fan club all through school and those students would sit entire periods and listen to me recite poetry or read stories. I was impressed.      |
