Helping Friends

In Scotland we have a saying ” When we are going up to the hill of fortune may we ne’er meet a friend coming down“.

Ideally we, and our friends, would travel up the hill together. But surely times of improved fortune are ideal to meet others whose life has taken a downturn, so we can help them back up.

What is the point in climbing the hill in the first place if not for the opportunity it gives us to help our friends.

The Gift of Time 

Luke 6:37-38 New International Version – UK (NIVUK)

Judging others

37 ‘Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. 38 Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

Marijuana has won…

It’s more than time. The jury is no longer out. States have been weighing in. And the answer has been a resounding : “Yes”.

It’s a massive shift that took place over just a few years.

A decade ago, no states allowed marijuana for recreational use; the first states to legalize cannabis in 2012, Colorado and Washington, did so through voter-driven initiatives.

Now, 17 states and Washington, DC, have legalized marijuana (although DC doesn’t yet allow sales), with five enacting their laws through legislatures, showing even typically cautious politicians are embracing the issue.

26 Shades and 26 Strokes of An Artist ❤❤

Hear me more. Says your body. 
Your health can speak in many ways.
Disease is the annoy expressed by your body. Sometimes we ignore our body and mental health.

Today’s poetry form is Soliloquy.

A Soliloquy is a monologue in which a character speaks to himself or herself, expressing the inner feelings that the audience might not otherwise know. Soliloquy is not considered a poem, but witnessing them in most of the Shakespeare's plays can blend them into a poetry form. 

Soliloquy reveals the character of an individual. Popular soliloquy of Romeo Juliet play speaks her loud thoughts when she comes to know that Romeo, is the son of her family’s enemy.

At times every individual needs that liberty to speak his thoughts aloud. Feelings are vented out to unchain from the mental blockage.

A soliloquy or a monologue is…

The time … he brought me flowers

elliethecrunch's avatarEllie the Crunch

I was just thinking “if he brings me flowers I will throw them at him” that I see some flowers on the dining table.

I ignored them hoping they weren’t for me.

Husband had stepped out and wasn’t home.

He comes home.

I was in the bedroom, so the bedroom is at the end of a long hallway directly in front of the stairs.

I was in the bedroom and I see husband coming up with flowers. I saw him walk through the entire hallway, almost looked like in slow motion like a movie.

He hands me the flowers telling me he doesn’t want to fight. I ask him so why does he? His answer was :”I need you on my side”

I was tearing up not because of his words but because I was reading something on Facebook before he came up but it looked like I was emotional…
