Guided by prompts from WDC blogging challenges... and of course, life

HI! I'm Jenn - and I'm all over the place (well, at least my mind is). In this blog, I have attempted to gather my thoughts on things prompted/inspired by WDC blogging challenges from "Journalistic Intentions"

, "The Soundtrack of Your Life"

, "Blogging Circle of Friends "

, "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS"

and, well, LIFE.

Signature for those who are nominated for a Quill Award in 2021

In response to "What Goes Up Must Come Down"

Hey, My heart goes out to you. I can relate. I'm Bipolar also. They diagnosed me as manic-depressive years ago, but it still took years for a diagnosis. I'm doing much better these days, but still have my highs and lows. The combination of Lexapro and Abilify has been the greatest help. I've tried a lot of different medication combos, and I have to say that just adding Abilify has helped me greatly!

My furbabies are everything to me. They're always near. I have two terrier-mix little girls. I wouldn't even want to think of what life would be like without them. They may be dogs, but they're good for hugs, cuddling, and talking to. They've been with me through thick and thin.

You're so right, they are definitely perceptive. They know when you need extra attention, and they know when to keep an eye out for you. They are definitely a blessing from God.

If you ever need to talk or just rant, feel free to write me.

I hope you're feeling better.

Thanks for reading and understanding, it means a lot. And I agree, my fur-boys are definitely gifts from God too!

LeJenD, you're not by yourself. I've battled depression in cycles throughout my life so far. I think in some ways, it's hereditary. As an adult, I have become convinced, that my Mom had undiagnosed Bipolar Disorder. When she was feeling "good," she'd take my brother and me to "the big town" to play all day. When she was feeling "bad," I had my hands full counseling her for hours. Who knew that wasn't a teenager's job?

Poetry has become such a balm for my soul. The depression is still there, but it seems to bring some level of relief when I put my feelings down in a poem. Amazingly enough, some of my best poetry has been written when I was depressed. The Lord has graciously given me the gift of poetry.

BTW, dogs are quite perceptive animals. Mine is lying on the floor near me as I write. I think she's a gift from God, too.

Entertainment

Written For: "Blogging Circle of Friends Prompt Forum" DAY 3189 August 7, 2021
Prompt: Write about your favorite movie or book for 2021.

This is going to be a short one.

Movies: I'm not big on going to the movies. All the ones I do watch are on Netflix so none of them are really "new". As far as my favorite? Well, I generally only put something on to watch as background noise at night as I am settling down to sleep, so I really can't say I've enjoyed any of the movies in full as I tend to fall asleep about thirty minutes into a show.

Books: My current book readings consist of the Bible and a book titled Signature in the Cell written by Stephen Meyer and released in 2009. Signature is a book which states that there has to be intelligent design and purports that there is DNA evidence to prove it. It is definitely not what you would call light reading, as the book is heavy with scientific jargon and charts, and it reads like a long scientific article. However, it has been quite interesting so far, as he attempts to integrate two opposing views on how life came to be using both modern science (genetics) and the theory of intelligent design as taught in the Bible. Is there something there? He certainly seems to think so. He even has a second book that goes into even more scientific detail on the two topics. Is it worth the read? That's difficult to say, as it has taken me seven months to get one-third of the way through the book. It certainly isn't one of those books that is so good you can't put it down. But, I am not a quitter and will finish what I started before I begin my journey into another book. Next time it will probably be something a lot more entertaining.
