Second blog -- answers to an ocean of prompts

"Failure is unimportant. It takes courage to make a fool of yourself."
CHARLIE CHAPLIN

Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet
confinement of your aloneness
to learn
anything or anyone
that does not bring you alive
is too small for you.

David Whyte

This is my supplementary blog in which I will post entries written for prompts.

In response to "By the River's Edge"

Nature does offer thrills in my opinion too. I love the soothsayers predictions.

That is funny although it may be embarrassing and tragic to you. You could elaborate and make a story of it in the comedy genre.

Yes, I can see how rumors can hurt a person. Sorry it happened to you, too.

Remember Children of the Corn? Yes, I was spooked by it.
Corn mazes are fun!

In response to "That Calm Center!"

I'm not a drama queen nor am I a calm personality. I'm high energy which some people find challenging. That energy level is what keeps me going. I agree calm centers can be quite deceiving.

In response to "Rumors and My Experience with One"

I fell for a rumor recently. WHY I didn't fact check it knowing the source, I can't say. But, my brother, reading from his phone, said...."Now they did it."
Did what?
They put a male in the female boxing ring at the Olympics and he killed a girl."

"WHAT?"

I freaked out and wrote a letter to the board at the Olympics. A rant. After hitting send, I googled it. That never happened! The guy IS a girl.... and ....no one died.

Will I ever learn?

The odd thing to me is we already are one but choose to forget it.

In response to "Imagine? Not Anymore"

It is a dream but it would be nice if the world could live as one. This song had hopes and dreams. I thought John Lennon wrote it. Good entry.

In response to "Rumors and My Experience with One"

Hillary's emails are a good example of unfounded rumors based partially on truth (the emails existed) that made it even harder to debunk... even 8 years later. How much harm did it do? We'll never know.

I've been accused of this-and-that more than once. Folks tried to breakup friendships and labelled me in the process... I left after the third or fourth incident. I didn't go back.

The result? I trust strangers with greater ease than those who should have known me best.

If Only

Prompt:
Finish this line- If only he had opened the door....

===========

If Only

If only he had opened the door,
he'd see a hidden wonder in store

for at each threshold, a dream's revealed
inside what creation has concealed

but fear got him, his hand did shake,
regrets now linger with a heartache

for behind each door is chance anew
with paths to wonder and skies to view

yet he remained, locked in despair
so wishing he had dared to dare

to trace the unknown, steeped in grace
and find beauty in life's embrace.
