| Hi All, I just completed my first final draft (don't laugh, you know there's always more changes, on my Christmas writing, The Visit of the Wise men! I didn't want to just blast it out there. But if you are interested in reading it, please let me know via email. Then, I will send you a copy back. I didn't want to post it for review as yet. |

Hi HollisFrances  See if you can rate and review my item below:

| part 2 I pray, no change. I read the Word. No change! I stared at the word, Meta for a very long time. Meta?! 1. Meta (from the Greek μετά, meta, meaning "after" or "beyond") is a prefix meaning "more comprehensive" or "transcending". [1] Meta - Wikipedia Global web icon Merriam-Webster Meta Definition & Meaning - Merriam-Webster WebMerriam-Webster unabridged. 2. The meaning of META is showing or suggesting an explicit awareness of itself or oneself as a member of its category : cleverly self-referential. Even the 'experts' seem to not be in agreement! gggrrreeeaaattt! With painful tears in my eye and a broken heart as I am writing this, I starts to see the letters a little differently. 1a. M, from the old Hebrew letter, Mem, which means strong water, usually associated with chaos, like a rough sea. 2a. E, from the old Hebrew letter, Hey, which means behold, or look here, pay attention, etc 3a. T, from the old Hebrew letter, Tav, which means a sign, or a covenant. 4a. A, from the old Hebrew letter, Aleph, which refers to an Ox, in its drawing but is the letter, for God. Hashem. (The Name) So, metamorphous is not self-change. It is, Behold the Chaos is a sign from Hashem?! Yea, thanks, well, You broke it, then please I pray, you fix it! AND Me, if you please. Amen. |
| Meta-Flection by Hollis Frances Flection noun 1. the act of bending. 2. the state of being bent https://www.dictionary.com/browse/flection This past week has been mix of hills and valleys. On the precipice of something. Just not certain what i am looking at. my best friend, Hershey, chocolate lab went from seemingly almost dead, prepare myself for the worst on Monday when taking him to the animal hospital. but did a detour for several hours to spend time at "our" favorite place, the beach. Watching the waves roll in, but unable to roll in them. We see the sea birds come and go, but unable to chase them as we once enjoyed. Then, reluctantly, decided it was time to go. But the Doc said, looks like vertigo to me. Take these and come back in a week. Several days of retraining, brought back Hershey’s mind and legs. Today he able to enjoy going out and in on his own with no harness! He now recalls neighbors, home and why he would stop at each mailbox to "read" the message boards. Then, why so glum, chum? I don't know. I felt as if I am in a cocoon. Hoping there will be a day when once again I can spread my wings. But, how do you get there from here? I have no manual to refer. I looked up metamorphous to clarify the situation. Self-change? WTF, over! I didn't create this mess. I'm just along for the ride. As if I was white-water rafting without an oar! Or as a bow on a fully pulled bow, ready for release. But to where, and better still, WHY! end of part 1 (character count) |

If you posted them in your Notebook, they will appear in the Newsfeed.  But you don't have a lot of fans (only 1), so not a lot of people will see this post. You should get on the Community Newsfeed more, make friends more, if you blog, participate in some of the blogging groups, socialize with people you review and who review you, etc. The more people who double click your plus sign until they see the megaphone, the more people will see your ads and other posts.  The way the Newsfeed works is that when we single or double (better) click, we start seeing the things that person posts. You haven't fanned a lot of people, so you likely don't see a ton of stuff on your Newsfeed. Not everything is exciting for you, but the more people you socialize with and who click (preferably double click) your plus, the more will see your notes here. To get to the Community Newsfeed, where I found you (and where almost no one goes, which you probably notice not a ton of people comment or Like your notes), you click Newsfeed on the left. Then on your Personal Newsfeed (the default), you will see "View the Community Newsfeed" at the top. Click that and see how much more appears. The same is for others. If they haven't fanned you, they won't see your notes. Get on the Community Newsfeed and start scrolling. Like, comment, start making friends and eventually, some of them will decide to click (probably double click) your plus and then they will see what you put in your Notebook and on the Newsfeed.  Congratulations and good luck!  |
