If you get a chance to visit the ocean, take it. The best part of visiting it is walking barefoot in the surf and feeling the cool waves wash across you feet. The beach sand is hot, which makes the cool waves feel that much nicer.
Prompt: “Reflect upon your present blessings -- of which every man has many -- not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some.”
― Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol and Other Christmas Writings
What are some of your present blessings?
I quit believing in "Luck" a long time ago, and began believing in blessings. I have been blessed all of my life. I had an accident when I was a child. It resulted in a skull fracture and traumatic brain injury. As a result of that my brain compensated for the injury by bolstering my ability to think creatively, thus making me a better writer. All of my life words seem to be easy for me to remember and understand. My reading comprehension is excellent. Everything just falls into place.'
I have also been blessed in a million other ways. I have been caught in rain storms that seemed to hold off until I was sheltered. I have wanted a certain food only to find it was being served at a place where I was eating. I've had a lot of experiences people would say were luck.
"Prompt: Can you think of something that played a major role or was a big part of your childhood, which the children of today may never experience?"
Two things come to mind immediately and I believe strongly that both need to be reintroduced: corporal punishment in schools and prayer in school! I believe we are destroying society by doing away with these things!
