Theme Thursday for May 23, 2013 - TRUST

TRUST
 
This weeks new theme is TRUST!

Do you trust me?
Can you trust me?
Will you trust me?

Can I trust you?
Do I trust you?
Will I trust you?

I think these are sometimes some of the most important questions we can ask of others, especially those we do not know.
Do we always know the answer?  Probably not because trust is something that usually takes a long time to build up between anyone. 

But sometimes we trust in an entity because we have been taught that this is what we are supposed to do.  We are supposed to trust our teachers, but lately we have found that there are a few bad apples and so we still trust that the majority of them are trustworthy.  We trust our firemen to arrive when there is a fire or an ambulance to come for an emergency.  But sometimes some people have found out that no one comes because they do not pay for these services or no one covers their area.  We expect the police to come if some type of crime is occurring or has occurred but we cannot know if they will come in time due to so many crimes being committed in some areas.  We know they cannot be everywhere but we trust them to be there for us.  We trust that when we drive over a bridge that it will hold up, yup some people have found that to not be true.  But basically we all still trust those we think we are supposed to trust. 

Especially in our government.  Well after this week, I think many of us are wondering who we can trust in our government here in the U.S.  I guess we are learning what so many others in their countries have learned.  That governments all over the world cannot truly be trusted.  And once that trust is lost between their people and their government, it is going to take many years for it to be earned back.  Just ask all the cheating spouses in the world.  Most of them are never truly trusted again.  But then again look how many cheating spouses work in the government.  No bad comments about this one please, you know they seem to be hanging around political offices all the time.

So how do you feel about trust?
Do you trust someone until they lose your trust or do you trust them after they have earned your trust?
And once someone loses your trust, how long does it take for them to earn it back, if ever?
I guess you could say that there are a lot of trust issues that surround us in our lives.
I hope you will come back on Thursday and let us know about how you feel about trust.

Thanks again,
Mrsupole

Theme Thursday for May 16, 2013 - CREATIVITY

CREATIVITY

 
This weeks new theme is CREATIVITY!
 
Do you think you are very creative?
Do you show a lot of creativity?
You may think you do not but
I think if you are a writer then you have
a lot of creativity.
 
I think we have to have a fairly large imagination
and display a lot of creativity to be able to write
as much as we seem to write.
But every once in a while I think some of our
creativity reaches a low point,
and we are at a loss as to what to write.
And if we are also an artist then whoa
we are screwed.
Usually we find it again and our creative minds
get back to work.
Sometimes, at least for me, my mind has a
hard time knowing when to stop.
Is it that way with you?
 
So how about you,
do you have a lot of creativity?
How does it affect you?
Does it come and go?
What outlets do you have for your creativity?
 
Please come back on Thursday
and show us some of your creativity!
 
Thanks again,
Mrsupole

Theme Thursday for May 9, 2013 - MYSTERIOUS

MYSTERIOUS

This weeks new theme is MYSTERIOUS!
Are you a mysterious person?
Do you know a mysterious person?
Do you have something that is mysterious?
Have you seen something that is mysterious?
What makes something mysterious?
To be mysterious or not to be mysterious,
is that really the question?
Some might say "yes" while others would say "no".
Why is that person talk, dark, and mysterious,
while the other person is an open book?
We have so many mysterious things
in the world and after endless studies
no one seems to know the answer.
How were the pyramids built?
Who put the statues on Easter Island?
How did they build Stonehenge
and for what purpose?
Is the Bermuda Triangle really safe?
I guess the list could go on and on
with no real answer or at least
we think there is no real answer.
So what about you,
what is mysterious in your life,
or what mysterious thing do
you want to know about?
Please come back on Thursday
and let us know.
See you then,
Mrsupole

Theme Thursday for May 2, 2013 - REJOICE

REJOICE


This weeks new theme is REJOICE!

Let us rejoice that spring is here!
Let us rejoice that autumn has arrived!
Let us rejoice that we are alive!

Let us rejoice for all that we have
and for all that we do not!

I hope that this week I have picked
a good prompt.
I am still never sure why some weeks they are great
and other weeks they are ignored.
Funny thing is that I really do try to figure out
what everyone might like
and what applies for that week.

So if you feel like rejoicing with us,
please come back on Thursday
and let us know.

Thanks again,
Mrsupole

Theme Thursday for April 25, 2013 - INTOXICATE

INTOXICATE
This weeks new theme is INTOXICATE!
What intoxicates you?
Do you think this wee wittle one will intoxicate
someone someday?
Well believe it or not she has everyone wrapped around her little finger.
This is the look you get when she is mad at you.
We call it her "mean look".
And then we usually just laugh at her which
frustrates her even more because she is upset with us.
But I have to say that the smell of her fresh out of the bathtub
is truly intoxicating.
No perfume needed,
just a big smile,
or laughter coming from her heart,
a big hug and squeeze from those little arms,
and one is so intoxicated
that you would give her the world if you could.
Then you realize that it is best to only give her what is necessary
because she would no longer be intoxicating if she was spoiled rotten.
So what about you,
what intoxicates you on most days?
Is it a certain food, place, person or power?
What happens to you when you are intoxicated?
Life is full of so many things that can intoxicate us.
Things that can make us change,
 sometimes for the good,
sometimes for the bad.
I think we become intoxicated with the wanting
of so many things that we normally would not even think about.
Advertisers make it their job to tap into what intoxicates us.
Which is why I try to skip advertisements when I watch a show.
I try to ignore the billboards while driving.
Sometimes I think that maybe the Amish people
are living the way we all should.
Then I see an advertisement about
a show that says there is an Amish "Mob".
That's when I realize we are a lost cause.
Intoxicating things are everywhere.
Please come back on Thursday
and let us know what intoxicates you. 
Thanks again,
Mrsupole

Theme Thursday for April 18, 2013 - ACCUSATIONS

ACCUSATIONS
This weeks new theme is ACCUSATIONS!
Have you ever been accused of something?
Do people blame you for something you did not commit?
Do you accuse others?
Do you accuse them even if you know they did not do it.?
Do you accuse them when you know they did it?
Do you take accusations seriously from everyone,
or just from those you take seriously?
Do you think that someone did it but you keep it to yourself?
Accusations seem to be everywhere.
We watch them in movies, TV shows, Newscasts,
Politicians constantly accuse the other side.
Office politics seem to be no different,
just maybe a little bit more discreetly or devious.
Spouses accuse each other of many things,
sometimes without realizing they are doing it.
Parents and teachers accuse the kids of doing things.
And so sadly accusations can really harm someone
even though it may not be intentionally meant to hurt the person.
Although there are some who laugh all the way
to the bank because they become infamous.
So do you have any funny accusation stories?
Sad ones, or ones that have affected you personally?
Do you have any stories of how you have gotten
even with the person or persons doing the accusing?
I think I see lots of possibilities for this prompt,
and I hope you will all come back
this Thursday to tell us your stories.
See you Thursday,
thanks again,
Mrsupole

Theme Thursday for April 11, 2013 - MAGICAL

MAGICAL

This weeks new theme is MAGICAL!

I think fairies are magical.
I think God is magical.
I think life is magical.
I think love is magical.
I think grand babies are magical.
I think you are all magical.

I think magical is different than magic.
I think magic is mostly a trick of the brain or eyes,
but magical is something that cannot be explained.
I used to think that science had an answer for everything,
now I know that it does not.
The scientists like to think they do,
but a true scientist admits they do not.
And I love science because of the unknown,
but most of the unknown is magical.

So what do you think is magical?
Please come back Thursday
and let us know what is magical to you.

See you Thursday,
Thanks again,
Mrsupole

Theme Thursday for April 4,2013 - LATE

LATE

This weeks new theme is LATE!

And so I had to be fashionably late in posting this.
Although I was ready to do a lot of April Fool's jokes.
But then I thought that maybe that would be too complex.

Early would have been a good prompt
but I am usually late although I do try to be on time sometimes.
I have learned that planes, trains, and cruises do not wait
for those who are late.

I try to be at the Doctors on time but he always seems to be late.
I try the same thing at the Dentists and they are always late.
It is a good thing I do not work anymore,
and yup I always seemed to be a minute late unless
they had time cards then I was only a minute early
and always left work late, even without time cards.
It just seemed like work was never done,
so I would work late until it was done.

Nowadays I seem to be late for nothing because
I have no set schedule.
And if I have to go to something I always tell them I will be late,
because it always seems like someone else makes me late.
Somehow I try to be on time but not much I can do
to get others to not be late.

So do you like to be fashionably late or are you always early?
Or are you a person who is always exactly on time?

Please come back on Thursday and let us know your late stories.
Thanks again,
Mrsupole 

PS....Sorry I am late visiting everyone from last week,
I got sick again and have been doing 
that sleeping all day thing again.
Slowly getting there to visit.

Comments are greatly appreciated.

Theme Thursday for March 28, 2013 - COMPLEXITY'S

COMPLEXITY'S


This weeks new theme is COMPLEXITY'S!

I actually was surprised at the spelling of this word.
I thought it was spelled "complexities", 
but that seems to be incorrect.
And as I usually do, I look up the words meaning.
Guess what there is no clear definition for this word.
I guess it is just too complex.

I will just let you look it up if you want to.
Although some do think they know the meaning.
Nothing complex there, they are word wizards.

I like to think that the world is made up
of many different kinds of complexity's.
Humans are a very complex group,
nothing simple about us.

And let's face it, one side does not equal the other side.
If you take a picture of the left side of your face
and then another picture of your right side of your face,
you would be shocked to see that they are very different,
well at least for the majority of us humans.

I have seen the examples of this and it is amazing.
It is very easy to do this with pictures.
Just try it and you will be surprised.
Each eyebrow, eye, lip, nose, and cheek are different.
Although those who are considered the most beautiful amongst us
are usually those who are the most symmetrical.

But one of our greatest complexity's is our relationships.
We have so many types of relationships with so many things and people.
We want to save the planet but not give up 
the things some say are destroying it.
We want to save creatures but then we have some we eat.
We want to save the trees but want to use the wood
for many different things.
We want to be friends but not get too friendly.
We have secrets but then we tell it all.
We love our family but at the same time want another.
We choose our mates but still keep looking.
Hey is the grass really greener on the other side.
Just another of life's complexity's.

Are you a complex person?
Do you have to deal with a lot of life's complexity's?
Honestly, I think life would be boring if we didn't.

Please come back on Thursday and let us know
about your complexity's.
Thanks again,
Mrsupole

Theme Thursday for March 21, 2013 - FRAGRANCE

FRAGRANCE


This weeks new Theme is FRAGRANCE!

Yeah, yeah, I know we just had scents a bit ago,
but Fragrance is just somehow different in my mind.
Maybe not yours, but in mine it is different.

Fragrance for me is almost always associated with colognes,
perfumes, candles, aftershave, and lotions
and any other concocted man made thing.

But then again it is the fragrance you smell from a
flower or even a plant.
Have you heard of the "Stinky Plant"?
I think this is one plant I will be fine not smelling.
 Also a skunk gives off a certain fragrance,
another one I do not need to smell.

But I love the fragrance in the morning when the sun rises,
and in the evening when it sets.
And so I figured that since spring is upon us
that many of you will be smelling the fragrance of "Spring".
All the new growth sprouting up all over.

And soon will follow the bees to make your plants more productive,
with the plants releasing their intoxicating smell
trying to entice the bees to come pollinate their blooms.

Isn't that what fragrance is all about,
enticing others to come near and take a whiff.
And if they like it then they can whiff away to their hearts content.

How about you?  
What do you think about fragrance,
do you have a favorite?

Please come back on Thursday
and tell us about your fragrance.

See you on Thursday
Thanks again,
Mrsupole

Theme Thursday for March 14, 2013 - GREENERY

GREENERY


This weeks new theme is GREENERY!

Okay, I am wondering what exactly is "greenery"?
So as always I had to look it up.
Yes, it is a real word and it is descriptive.
Did you know that some "greenery" is now legal?
This was a new meaning for me
since I knew that when I was a kid,
the "greenery just grew along side the road like a weed.

Yes, it was free and legal at that time as most greenery is.
I do like to learn new things all the time,
and this was definitely something new.

But as I chose greenery, I was thinking more along the
lines of little green shamrocks spring up
all over the place right now.
And those Shamrock Shakes that McDonald's is
selling right now.
I keep forgetting to go out and get one of them,
and I know that by the time I really think about it
they will stop selling them.
Hopefully this will remind me.
I will let you know if or when I get one.

But the real greenery is already starting to grow every where
here in SoCal.
Let's say Spring has sprung down here.
But then it really never goes away since we are in
an evergreen zone.
Which means we miss those beautiful autumn colors.

Also I just wanted to show you what "thermal greenery"
can do to a picture of the youngest granddaughters.
Love those alien grandkids just like the normal ones.

Please come back on Thursday
and tell me about any greenery
in your life or area.
Thanks again,
Mrsupole

See you Thursday!!!!

Update:  I got my Shamrock Shake today (Wed.)
Yummy, now I am set until next year.

Theme Thursday for March 7, 2013 - SHAPES

SHAPES


This weeks new theme is SHAPES!

Can you guess what these shapes were before they
were morphed into these shapes.
So many things can be done with shapes.
I love to see the shape of new buildings.
Some are totally amazing.

Have you ever noticed the shape of women's eyebrows?
There are almost as many ways to shape them as there are women.
Just look at all the women around you.
The shape of our eyes, noses, ears, lips, chins, everything about us.

We are all so vastly different but then we are basically the same.
What would it be like if we all had an identical twin,
kinda scary if you think about it.
Who would want two people that are evil when one was bad enough.

And then we have square shapes, round, oval, triangles, etc.
We are surrounded by shapes all around us.
We use shapes, and eat things shaped this way or that way.
Look at pasta noodles and how many shapes they come in.

I guess I could go on and on about shapes
but then there is the shape of thing to come,
which is a shape we may not have seen.

Please come back on Thursday,
and let us know how shapes affect your life
and what kinda shape you are in.

Thanks again,
Mrsupole

Theme Thursday for February 28, 2013 - WONDER

WONDER


This weeks new theme is WONDER!

So do you ever wonder?
Yes, I wonder all the time.
I wonder what the heck is going on.
I wonder what I am going to do.
I wonder what you are going to do.
Yes, I wonder all the time.

Does it get me anywhere?
I wonder!
What do I get when I wonder?
I wonder!
What do you get when you wonder?
I wonder!

So come back on Thursday
and
let me know what you wonder,
and what happens when you wonder.

See you Thursday!

Theme Thursday for February 21, 2013 - CONFESSIONS

CONFESSIONS
This weeks new theme is CONFESSIONS!
Oh how many confessions I would have if I were to confess.
But then it might be best if I kept my confessions to myself.
At least that is what I tell myself.
Confession is good for the soul they say,
and I think maybe they are right,
but I think it is best if I keep those
confessions between myself and the lord.
Then again, I don't know what it is about all of you,
and so I guess I will just have to confess.
I did it, I really did do it,
and the guilt is killing me.
I ate that last piece of chocolate cake,
and it was damn good.
There I confessed.
I hope you all feel better, I do.
Since those without that cake will never read this,
I can continue on with no punishment.
Oh yes, confession is good for the soul.
Do you have anything to confess?
Nothing deep, just something small you need to tell.
Come back on Thursday,
try it, and confess.
Trust me you will feel better,
ha ha ha ha!!!
Thanks again,
Mrsupole

Theme Thursday for February 14, 2013 - SCENTS

SCENTS

 
Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!!
 
This weeks new theme is Scents!
Pretty soon we will be having a change of seasons,
some to Spring and others to Autumn.
Both of these will change the smell in the air.
 
Do you enjoy the crispness of Autumn or
the sweet allure of Spring?
I really enjoy either one.
They are both my favorite seasons of the year.

I also enjoy the scent of so many different kinds of food.
Fresh food, vegetables or fruit, so wonderful.
Or cookies baking in the oven,
and food cooking on the stovetop.

But I think my favorite scent is the smell of
a baby just after taking a bath.
They smell so clean and so fresh.
I love to smell my grandchildren as I dry them off.
Nothing smells better.

How about you, what is your favorite scent?
Do you even have a favorite scent?

Please come back on Thursday
and let us know about your favorite scent

Thanks again,
Mrsupole
