"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.
I just love you two! I knew I liked you before this challenge but your hearts are so beautiful and true. Thank you both for sharing so much through your blogs and being beautiful, authentic people! JoyLyn's a Witchy Woman
It's more than a lyric in a song to me as well because the younger me was concerned about not doing anything that would draw attention to me because of the consequences. The older me doesn't think about it all. I'm not blatantly disrespectful of others but they're not my first consideration. I'm enjoying everyday moments and all the new memories I'm creating.
We've earned the right to be authentic, Joy! Age does have some interesting benefits.
Yes, I lived on a small farm as a guest for a short time when I was in my teens. I remember well the he-goat, the tough guy of the area, who chased me around. The whole thing was really funny because I don’t run away from animals and I thought he was cute, but the owners always rushed to whisk me away since that goat had hurt several people and would probably do it again. The only people he didn’t chase was the husband and wife team of owners.
The chickens were cute, and so were the sheep. What I liked most though was to sit under the fruit trees and read.
Prompt: "Life is too short to not have oysters and champagne." Chris Binkley What are your thoughts about this quote?
Is that so? I mean champagne is okay, but I am not too keen on oysters. I’d rather have a cup of tomato soup and a grilled-cheese sandwich.
Metaphorically speaking though, I agree that life is meant to be enjoyed to the best of our abilities, without hurting anyone and without creating unpleasantness.
