My Reflections

Swallow pride to forgive and ask for forgiveness.

I can hardly believe it is September already. Wow! Is it just me or is this year going by fast?

I took some time off blogging in August. I will come back for now and see how this goes again. I enjoy blogging. It is just time-consuming at times and I don't always have the time I would desire to have for it. I think I would be content to get lost in WDC and spend all my time here, but I can not. Fortunately or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it, there is also a real world we must all live in too.

Take UP Your Cross

Prompt:
Which is easier for you: to forgive someone or to ask for forgiveness?

Answer:
I don't really have an issue with either one. I guess if I had to choose though, it would be asking for forgiveness because that requires swallowing pride and admitting you are wrong. Although I have been accused of saying, “I am Sorry” too much. I would rather be overly nice and considerate then not enough. Sometimes I go out of my way to be nice.

Prompt: "Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears." John Lennon Write about this quote in your Blog entry today.

I think it is the idea to remember what is truly important in life. Maintain good friendships and make lots of great memories.

The ship took a little damage the other day during the run in with the Romulans. So we pulled into a friendly star base today for repairs. While we were there we explored the planets. Kåre Enga, P.O. 22, Blogville (376) writes

Trolliver's grave eyes  (18+) He'll always have jobs as long as there're sidewalks to work. #1537818 by Kåre เลียม Enga

about a person with gray eyes and loopy bangs. Who does this remind you of?

Hmmm, that's a good question. I don't know many people with that description. I can relate, however, to the always having a job as long as there are sidewalks to work. For me, as long as there is a job within walking distance, I don't have to worry about transportation.

Day 3214: September 1, 2021

Prompt: Words to use: autumn, sapphire, honeysuckle, clouds, golden, peace, serenity, and time.

I like it when we have words that make me think of peace, especially on chaotic days like today. I could use some serenity like I feel when I am watching the clouds float quietly by. I am looking forward to Autumn. It is a golden time of year. You can smell the honeysuckle and stare into the Sapphire colored sky.
