My Reflections

12/09/2024

Wow! Has it been 5 years already? It doesn't seem like it's been that long, but here I am. It's my account anniversary!

When I was a kid, I used to love and imitate Miss Piggy. I would make the karate chop yell of hers, "Hi Yaw!" when I wanted to put more umph into something like throwing a ball or lifting something heavy. LOL So, I just had to use that GIF.

Take UP Your Cross

Blog Prompt: What do you think about Christianity and other religions influence in society throughout history and today?


Answer: I think it is an interesting topic. When I look at history, I don't think Christians have always been all that "Christian". They have been just as abusive of other religions too. I have watched a few documentaries on the religious beliefs of different societies at different times, like Greek Mythology for an example. A lot of times, I think religion has been used for selfish agendas and political purposes rather than developing a relationship with a higher power.


Prayer prompt: Pray for the charity of your choice.

Dear Heavenly Father,
Bless St. Jude's and the work that they do. Provide the funding needed. Be with the patients there. Make them and their families to feel your presence and to know you are there.

In Jesus' name,
Amen

Write about solving a problem ln an unusual way.

This might make me look bad. LOL However, to be fair, a person I knew was taking my friend's pain medication without permission. So, I took my friend's pain medicine out of the bottle. I knew there was an anti-diarrhea pill that looked similar. I put 10 of those anti-diarrhea pills into the pain medicine bottle and put it back where my friend kept it. Then we waited. The next day the person was complaining of constipation and had to go to the ER. They ended up being okay, but they never took my friend's pain medicine again without permission. If she would have asked, we would have told her what was really in the bottle. However, when we went in to check the bottle, there were only 7 pills left.

Okay, Okay, that was kind of mean of me, but it was her own fault for not asking. Hey, and it solved the problem!

Prompt: Climbing
What if you were to climb to the top of a very high mountain, would you do it? And/or if you wish, what does the word "climbing" bring to your mind?

If I could do it, I'd love to climb to the top of a high mountain. The view would be totally worth it. Although, Now that I am older, the word climbing makes me think pain and extra effort and energy. I will give a shout out to those who climb mountains. What an amazing abillity!
