ok.. so I'm taking a next step in my life. I'm improving on myself. I'm going down this path i am on, thanks to God. I now attend a church regularly, and I like its small confines in a church building i attended nearly 40 years ago. To me it is surreal. Do i know whats ahead, or even where I am going? no, not at all. to be honest it scares me, but I need to step out of my fear and take charge of my life, and live it the way I and God want me to be. where ever this path goes, I'm sticking it out to the end. I feel it is a testament to who I am. I am learning more and more everyday about myself. and improving, also trying to make amends for past mistakes. But one can only make amends for mistakes where there was mistakes to begin with, if people don't want to listen then that is their fault, and their loss. I wont go where im not wanted and I know I am a good man, if you don't.. well that's too bad so sad for you... |
DAY 1147 January 5, 2016 Has technology helped you achieve better or worse work/life balance? That, my friends, is a good question, actually a very good question. I can see the answer on both sides. both sides have lots of plus' as well as more than a few minus', as well. I think over all technology has made doing business more streamlined and efficient while making people more lazier than they have ever been before. How? you may ask? Well now we have people who work from home, in their pajama's and never put on a suit, unless they have to, and the like. So people are less likely to leave the safety of their own home to work, or even go to school nowadays. So we, as a society, have set our own selves up for failure and laziness. and one day we will pay the price. Has anyone ever seen the cartoon movie "Wall-E"? we are well on our way to that stage of life. Plus the fact that technology has even made interacting with friends more streamlined as you no longer even have to be on the same half of the world to interact with some one? It is a pure sad state of affairs we put ourselves in, while affording us no way of getting out of it either. ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |
| DAY 1146: January 4, 2016 Prompt: Write a story or poem containing the following words: sandwich, force, fat, attic, abolish, chubby, pipe, contest I ordered a sandwich, it was so slow in coming because of a demand which, caused the waiters and waitresses to come out in force. Where did they come from? everywhere far and near they arrived, they came as though it was automatic, one even came out of the attic. Some were skinny, some were fat, and some even came with a baseball bat. the rush was caused by a customer few, the reason was a misnomer, because there was only one, a chubby looking man, smoking a pipe, who smelled as ripe as a rotting blueberry pie from last weeks pie eating contest. ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |
| DAY 1141: December 30, 2015 Prompt: Write a Good-Bye letter to 2015 listing everything good that you believe happened during the year. Dear 2015, I wanted to say goodbye to you, in my own fashion, as I look towards 2016 with great anticipation, I wish you all the best. It has been a hard year for me personally, but I know for you it has been relatively good. The good things that happened to me in 2015 I gave the girl a ring( yes a real one!). I changed the way I looked at things this last year and I joined the NanoWriMo prep this year but through some unforeseen circumstances was too busy during November to write the novel I have in mind, but will do it this year. I know this is a really short letter but I wanted to wish you all the best, and hope to see you around the water cooler sometime soon. best regards , me ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |

| DAY 1139: December 28, 2015 Prompt: What is your New Year's Day or holiday food tradition? Why? Is there a superstition that concerns this food. Ahh! new year's eve... that one night a year when people gather in NYC, in times square and freeze their buts off drinking alocohol while I watch from my warm home in Florida. Over all I have no issues with NYE, now food, I do have an issue with, that is why I am the size I am. I find it fun to stay up late enough to be in the first few minutes, or even the seconds of the new year. I tried to start a tradition of going to see a movie on NYE, but with the lack of anything good coming out of Hollywood in this decade makes it hard to deal with. I try to have things like that but, mainly, I just enjoy this time with family and friends. Yes, I don consider everyone on here to be family to me. ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |
| DAY 1134: December 23, 2015 Prompt: Write a story or poem about a snow angle? Although the urge to write a story about snow angle's is a big thought for me today, I'm not going to write one. I don't feel like writing about snow angels either, so I'll be brief.... I truly love Christmas and everything about it, and it is here once again this year to mark the end of another rough and tough year for me. I am joyous because it is Christmas, especially when I see the joy in the kids faces when I'm in the store, as they wait in line to see Santa, or when I see them dropping their letter in the mail box for Santa. it is both a joyous time of year, and one filled with hope. hope for tomorrow and all that it brings. I know I haven't been on doing much since the Christmas season began, but I'll be back in the new year. back to reviewing and writing more.... I hope! till then.... have a happy and joyful Christmas and new year! ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |
| DAY 1132: December 21, 2015 Prompt: “Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder” ― Plato Have you ever seen anything that you thought was beautiful which someone else thought was ugly or just plain? What was it about the object that made it beautiful to you? Yes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Me, personally, am a poster child for this thinking. I already know I'm not much to look at, in fact, I can be downright scary when you think about it. I'm 6'4" and am a man of impressive girth( which means I take up more than one chair when I sit down), and am not someone you want mad at you. But yet I'm a teddy bear at heart, yes I know this. In order to get to that part one has to look past the outside, or at least try to... not many do, some do but not many. Why? I don't know. they all say Im a good guy, but you know what happens to good guys don't you? anyway... those are my feelings. ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |
DAY 1129 December 18, 2015 What's the best piece of Health advice you have ever received? Did you follow it? Why or Why not? I think by far the best health advice I have ever been given has been to cut down my eating. I did follow it, in an attempt to get more healthy, loose weight and pull me away from diabetes. It worked for me because I have the determination that I have learned from being a us marine infantryman for two units while in the corps. 2/4, hq 8th reg,and 3/6. I refuse to go down without a fight on this. ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |
| DAY 1128: December 17, 2015 Prompt: What songs are on your happy playlist? its sad to say but, I have no particular songs on the happy , that is mainly because all music makes me happy. I have just about grown up in one music program or another, I did that because of my pure love and passion for music, even though I haven't touched a musical instrument in over twenty years. ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** God bless, David ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |
