Prompt: "Cruising through the galaxy writing.com today I came upon a familiar and beautiful star named (995) This star is orbited by a number of ports. One of those ports is BOOK 52 Weeks of Torture (ASR) Because the road to insanity is paved with form poetry. #2190165 by (995) The caption reads: "The road to insanity is paved with form poetry." Write about this road to insanity." First of all, I have to make a distinction between insanity and mental illness.

The pagans believed that the veil between life and death is weakest around the fall equinox in the Northern Hemisphere and the Spring Equinox in the Southern Hemisphere. Pagans who became Christians wanted to continue to honor their dead so the Catholic church at that time adopted this holiday and called it All Saints Eve. Do you feel it is okay to do so? I sometimes celebrate Halloween and sometimes not. It depends on the mood I am in. I do feel it is a pagan holiday and as a Christian, I feel it is compromising with sin. On the other hand, I am a chaplain. As a chaplain it is my job to welcome people of all faiths and show them the love and presence of Christ. If I can do that by adopting some spooky name temporarily or handing out candy to children, then I am willing to do that. Prompt: "What fun things are you exploring on WDC this month? Have you done them before or are they new to you? What would you recommend ? Why? I am not really exploring anything new. I am pretty busy with my own groups. However, I am glad you asked about recommendations. I would like to recommend my groups
