 |   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. |
For "Blog City ~ Every Blogger's Paradise"  Prompt: Would you rather travel by car, plane, train or ship? --- All of the above and it depends. If I’m crossing the ocean, I’d rather be in a plane. In fact, I’d rather be in a plane for most types of travel that would require immediacy. Yet, a cruise ship is a lot of fun, too, if I’m on the Mediterranean or the Caribbean or some such place. I don’t look down upon car travel either. For most places, especially when we had little children, a car travel was a must since we could stop and take little breaks for them. Then, when I was young, I was in love with the trains. A train ticket would be the best gift for me. Still, I’d very much like to go on the transcontinental train ride in Canada and a shorter trip over the Rockies that I recently heard about. One mode of travel I’d stay away from, though, would be the buses. Not that I want to badmouth them at all, but that type of travel would be extremely inconvenient for me at my age.  For: "Space Blog" Prompt: From Prosperous Snow celebrating   ’s "Spiritual Transformation" ---- As usual for this poet, an insightful poem, pointing to the difficult route that leads a person to a higher sacred and spiritual life. As the definition of spirituality differs for each practice and each person, I’d rather leave out the details about such a journey. Yet, spiritual transformation is neither rare nor incomprehensible. It is, in fact, a process, which is a part of any spiritual life, with falling and getting up multiple times during the course of attainment. Even after such a journey is taken and a transformation occurs, a person’s task shifts from the initial hardship of attainment to the duty of conserving this new understanding. I think this is where the most difficult and critical work comes in. |
