A new blog to contain answers to prompts

Since my old blog "Everyday Canvas " became overfilled, here's a new one. This new blog item will continue answering prompts, the same as the old one.

Cool water cascading to low ground
To spread good will and hope all around.

Very lyrical and thoughtful. A reminder to all that nature can be a balm on a stressful day.

In response to "Have it All?...EEEEEK!"

God creates us. He gives us some powers to fulfil our needs. In excess of that, we save for our future. If He wishes, He can destroy those properties within a moment. So, wise people know that this is the property of God. They are the caretaker only. So they don't feel proud of those properties. But foolish people don't understand that simple truth. So they feel proud of their properties.

In response to "Have it All?...EEEEEK!"

Every property in our life, whether material or immaterial, is given by God. We, the foolish people, reckon that they earned those properties through their efficiency. We feel proud of that. If God wishes, He can take back these properties. Then that particular human can understand that he was wrong. But it's too late.This truth is reflected in this vital blog post.It's truly a beauty.

There's definitely a lot of comedy out there. Apropos to your post, there's this comment by comedian Stephen Wright: "You can't have everything. Where would you put it?"

In response to "Role Models and Charles Barkley"

This is a thoughtful piece of writing. I have never understood the hero worship, or stars as heroes thing. Role models need integrity for sure.

In response to "Role Models and Charles Barkley"

To become another's role model, or to choose a role model, is a tough task. It's not impossible but difficult.From birth, we are habituated to copying our seniors, mainly parents. Role model is something different. It is related to our hobby or passion, nothing else.

I agree - it's those people who constantly try, and then pick themselves up who I admire. Being "successful" is great, but it's not more important than being a good person. And you don't become a good person by being prefect.

In response to "Seasons "

Wow! What a lovely blog post it is! This blog post nicely compares these seasons with our lives. I agree with those.
Let, a year be a book. Then every season is a chapter of that book. Summer comes with warmth. It may be considered as our youth when we take on most of the workloads.
After a summer autumn comes in with some coolness. But, those crunchy leaves are indicative shows uncertainty, too, giving us stability and patience. But we are gradually getting older.
Winter comes with leafless trees and coldness. Those leafless trees can be compared to the loss of human life and the coldness of the pain of old age.
In the Spring, we can see trees are full of leaves. In human life, it symbol of new possibilities and energies. At the same time, that tells us, no vacation is permanent.

In response to "Law and Order "

The blogger has a tremendous sense of humour. The first part is not very interesting. She indicated that it the an artistic honour. Before appearing interesting phase, her husband slept.
Whether it's based on any reality, she can think this type of reality.
These add special flavours to this blog post.

In response to "No Such Thing as Yours Truly and the Westerns"

Even today, I often see parodies of Western films here and there.The director may follow any form of good art.I love the blogger's sense of humour. She tells us, 'Why can't she watch the movie?' Due to her children.

Books

Prompt: Words
Hope your Thanksgiving was everything you needed it to be.
Please use these words in your entry today: bargain, disaster, bookstore, groceries, walk, chocolate, and peanuts.

----------

Books

those simple joys in life, they keep me warm
no simple storm ever can steal their charm

like today, I *walked with my spirit high
just to pass rows of stores where goods could lie

with treasures and *bargains, as if a game
but an ancient *bookstore did call my name

so I now picked books in spines of gold
edges worn with many-a-tale untold

as if tasting *chocolate, rich and deep
and scent of *peanuts roasting, just to sweep

me off my feet; yet, when I left the store
it was squalls, rain, and life tested me more

a *disaster, no less, my patience was worn
"no *groceries now, for my wallet's torn!"

I clutched my books since my heart would be fed
still I could laugh and then, press ahead

books with joys of fancy keep me warm
and no storm today can steal their charm
