Soul Space

It's been more than a year since I've sat down to this blog. I have no idea why I didn't publish this post.  It's just been sitting for a year?  In fact, I couldn't even remember what I had written about here until I reread it all, and still, some things have left me wondering why I can't remember what they mean today.  I suppose what they say is true - "take whatever is worrying you - will it matter a year from now?".  I decided not to edit it, just post it with a quick note and leave it as is, curiosity and all.   I've said for years that I wanted to take a weekend away and write letters to the most important people in my life.  You know... "in case".  I don't ever want my people to wonder or to be left with questions.  I have since learned that simply saying what you need to, when you need to will always hold water.  I hope more times than not, it helps a cup runneth over.  I love you guys.   Write a "than...

Explain lightening to a five year old.  Sometimes, we find ourselves watching a storm.  Clouds roll in, and skies go dark.  Some people, they run for cover.  They hide inside. But those people are missing it all.  They are missing it all!  You see, my sweet, lightening is powerful.  It can light up the darkest places. Think of the darkest place you can.  If there's just one little crack in that whole place, lightening can get in and fill all those dark spaces with the most powerful light.  It's the heavens reaching down to the things that are standing the tallest!  It crashes to Earth with electric power.  It makes it statement and forces the Earth to absorb it's voice. Now, I wouldn't recommend you go out and stand in it's immediate path.  It's wicked and fierce, and it has the power to stop your heart and change your life.  I'm just saying that I never want you to be afraid of powerful light that comes with an imba...

An alien has just abducted you.  Give it three reasons why it would send you back to Earth.  1.  Love - I just found mine, and it's finally my turn. Put me back. 2.  Defiance - I don't do well with being told what to do.  So, if that's the plan, this won't go well.  Put me back. 3.  Ever tried to get in between a momma bear and her cubs?  You better run. Put me back.

You are planning the dinner party of your dreams and there are eight chairs.  You can invite seven other people (anyone still alive).  Who will fill the chairs and what will make this dinner interesting?  This has been one of my favorite questions of all time.  I have shared it with many people, and I actually hope when I post this, you will share your guest list with me.  I find the answers fascinating. I spent weeks on this list, where others knew right away.  I had a very different list when we changed the question to include anyone at all-passed or alive .  But alas, the question stands - anyone alive, eight chairs, one is for you.  Who's in the room filling those seats? Oddly, I went straight to a celebrity list.  People I would love to have a conversation and listen to their stories.  I don't know why they are known people.  I can't really explain it.  Maybe I should have more than one list? This would be my perfect ce...

Finish this sentence. "Life is short..." "...quit wasting time on things that don't fill your soul."

Write a weather forcast for your day tomorrow. The past couple of days have been deceitfully clear, hiding storms that may knock over a house of cards without warning.  The sun has been shining, but the atmosphere wreaks of changing winds and a time of cleansing.  Make sure you have you have your hatches battoned, she might be a doozie.  I wouldn't under estimate any storm that might hit without warning.  They seem to destroy the most things in their path.

You've just been given a limousine for a day.  What will you do?  Limo for a day...what to do, what to do... Drive to a school and pick up an entire kindergarten class and take them for ice cream?  I don't know - it seems such a frivolous thing, someone to drive you around in the name of prestige.  Might as well make it a memory for someone who thinks it's amazing.
