Behind on prompts...
Prompt: How much of your life is spent in the prusuit of being perfect at something? Have you ever attained perfection in something?
No, I don't try to be perfect and I have never attained anything to perfection. Well, except my grilled steaks. Those are perfikt.
Song Prompt 12 "Am I the one you were sent to save?"
I don't know this song. But I believe that people are sent into our lives for a reason. Maybe not always to "save" us, but for some reason. Whether for encouragement, friendship, or to learn something, and the list could go on. Most of the time, we probably never realize the true reason we know the people we know.
Write about a time when you felt accepted by a parent or grandparent.
This one could require a LOT of thinking. I always felt accepted by my parents when I was a child. I always felt accepted by my father, even after I grew up. I'm not sure my mother accepts me completely. I began feeling that way around the age of 14. It seemed I was always trying to please her but couldn't.
In "Vein of Gold", Julia Cameron introduces the idea of 'the cinema self'; an ideal, larger than life, glamorous version of who we are in everyday life. Cinema Self is based on who we are, but has the freedom and ability to do and be things we can't or won't. Try to imagine your Cinema Self; the clothes, the car, the places you would go and the people you would meet. Then imagine yourself being invited to cast and direct "Self - The Movie" and choose an artist to play your role. Who do you think would portray you best?
I think Kristy Swanson should play me in the movie about myself. She'd wear glasses, a long white coat and work in a laboratory. She's single, living in a bachelorette pad, and dates often. She's quiet, mysterious, and writes medical thrillers. She drives a black mustang convertible. She travels to a new country every year and has broken 100 men's hearts, and counting. Her dog is a Husky/Wolf and is loyal to her. The last time someone raised his voice at her, he bit a chunk out of his leg. -- Hey, I think I'll go write about "me."
Prompt: If you had a 24 hour bus trip to take and you could chose the person to sit next to you for the whole time, who would you chose, or not chose and why?
I would choose to sit next to my son, Paul. He's my best little buddy and the only person in the world who truly understands me. Plus he's the only person I could sit next to for a whole 24 hours and either talk or not talk and be for sure I wouldn't feel uncomfortable.
August is National Psychic Month. Have you ever consulted a psychic? Had your palm read or a tarot card reading? Do you believe that some people have psychic abilities or do you think its all a bunch of hogwash?
I have consulted a psychic before. Shhhh don't tell my husband. It was him I was checking up on. Yes, I was so desperate for information, I paid this woman a lot of mone to tell me.... nothing really. It didn't take long for me to figure out, she really wanted me to bring her money and more money. She'd give me bits of info to keep me coming back and then I would have to pay her for her to tell me, not much. I do believe there are people with some psychic abilities. There are a lot that are full of hogwash too. So, I don't go to them anymore. That doesn't mean I think all psychics are bs'ers. I'm fascinated by the possibility that there could be such a thing. I even think we all have some psychic ability. Hasn't almost everyone had a dream come true and then blame it on coincidence. But were you REALLY 100% sure? I am not.
