Down the Rabbit Hole

Imaginary Friends and Miracles

Blogging Circle Day 1085: November 4, 2015
Prompt: My beliefs enhance my life. Yes, No, Maybe? What do you think?

I am surprisingly private about my beliefs, particularly those that govern my religious and spiritual choices. I will say that my willingness to believe in a high power does enhance my life. My spirituality has given me great comfort at some of the darker times of my life. I believe in the power of prayer. Lastly, I believe in miracles...the small ones that go relatively unnoticed every day but are proof positive that we are all connected and there is something bigger out there.




Blog City Prompt: Many of us had imaginary friends as children. If your imaginary friend grew up beside you, what would his or her life be like today?

I don't recall ever having made an imaginary friend, even in those five blissful years of being an old child before my siblings came along. It wasn't for lack of a vivid imagination. I used to imagine a great many wonderful things in my childhood years...from ruling great, watery kingdoms under the sea, to staring in my own Marine Theater show training killer whale, to presiding over my tribe as an Indian princess. I see now looking back that I clearly had some control issues and perhaps my need to be "ruler", "princess", "star" drove out any prospective, spotlight stealing imaginary friends!
