On a Lighter Note

 



 





aka, Sunday Stealing: "10 Questions You Aren't Used To"

 



What celebrity would you never want to meet?

Jane Fonda


What do you label yourself as?

Christian (Imperfect Believer), Political Conservative, Enthusiastic Foodie  


You can only have one sandwich for the rest of your life.  You have every sandwich-making ingredient known to man at your disposal.  What sandwich do you make?

I can't think of anything that rivals a juicy burger.
This, for instance

1# medium rare chuck with avocado, jalapeno and pepperjack cheese.



An angel provides you with a lifetime supply of the alcoholic beverage of your choice.  What's it gonna be.

Is the angel paying?  Let's go with a good Italian red -- Masi Amarone.



Have you ever built a snowman?

No, but I've met a few!



If you could ask your future self a question, what would it be?

What do you regret not ever having done?



Have you ever baked your own birthday cake?

No


Which are cooler: dinosaurs or dragons?

Ha, that's never appeared on my fantasy bingo card.
Remembering one of my favorite sing-along's, I'm going with Dragon -- as in "Puff the Magic."



What do you like about babies?

The aroma and feel of their perfectly soft, unblemished skin.



You discover a beautiful island upon which you may build your own society.  What's the first rule you put in place.

Be Kind!



INSTEAD OF STEALING, LET'S BUILD OUR OWN MEME.
Think of a question you'd like to ask and insert it here.  If we get a least four good ones we'll do our own DYI meme in a week or two.

My candidate:
What mystery do you wish you knew the answer to?



💛


I hope you all enjoy a sweet Sunday!

Hugs, Myra

  2. This is a very good question:

    "If you could ask your future self a question, what would it be?

    What do you regret not having done?"

    I wonder what you would say.

    1. I've a pretty good idea -- but that's between me and God.

  3. I actually saw Jane Fonda, quite probably in 1972. Love your sandwich!

  5. Oh, I loved that rascal, Puff, too! Remember when the silly conspiracy folks insisted that happy children's song was about drugs? SMH.

  6. I'm with you about Jane Fonda.

    When it comes to regrets, it's easy to wander down a long road of "what ifs" and overthinking. I've chosen not to live there. Every regret is woven into the fabric of who I am today. Through God's grace, even my mistakes and missteps have served a purpose, teaching me lessons, strengthening my faith, and shaping my journey. I can't change the past, but I can be grateful for how God has used it to make me who I am today.

  7. I often wish I could ask my parents more questions, but as for me I can't think of any for myself. I have no regrets as far as how I lived my life. It's been a good one so far. I still wake up every day and thank the good Lord for it! I have no favs on stars I'd like to me. I haven't admired one enough to want to know them. I too would say to everyone Be Kind! A kindness is never a waste of time. Love, ma

    1. So true, Ma.. We never know what someone else is going through.

  8. What do I regret not having done. That's a good thing to ponder.

    1. I agree with the lady who said, "It's better to beg forgiveness than ask permission."

  9. Questions for your MEME:

    Theological/Philosophical one: Do you think some people are born evil or is their "evil" shaped by their upbringing and environment?

    More important question: Why are rainbows arc shaped and not triangular or rectangular?

    God bless.

    1. I'm drawn to the first, Victor -- but then I remember, God doesn't make mistakes.

  10. Oh ... Oh ... got another one:

    Why is pasta priced differently according to shape when the ingredients are exactly the same: spaghetti, lasagne, tubes, shells etc ...

  11. Great answers Myra...Many of them I share with you. Lets see.. When I was little, I always thought of Heaven being just above the clouds in the blue sky. Space and all of that stuff ruined it for me. The mystery that I will one day know is: Where exactly is heaven? Is it located in another universe...is it the most gorgeous planet ever located WAY beyond? 🤷‍♀️

    ReplyDelete
  12. Hmmmm ... Now you have got me thinking.
    I really have no regrets. I have lived a good MANY years and I am still above ground ... so that's good. I don't want to dwell on the past and the should have, could have.. Learning and moving on.
    Umm yumm on a good hamburger or definitely a juicy steak...
    I do often wonder if there are other universes like ours and if there are, what a reunion that will be when we all get to heaven ... where ever that actually is. I know I am going there so it really doesn't matter where it actually is. My ticket is paid for in Full !!

    1. Indeed, what a wonderful reunion! When all of our wonderings and what-if's become clear!

  13. I'm with you 100% when it comes to Jane Fonda, Myra. And I remember learning to sing and play "Puff, the Magic Dragon" on guitar when I was young. What a fun song! Yes, I'm back!

  14. Aroma of baby's soft skin?? I always smell something else..💩

    ReplyDelete
  15. We used to sing Puff the Magic Dragon all the time when the girls were little and I grew up listening to Peter Paul and Mary!
    LOVE your answer to the future question.
    I also like your island answer!!

  16. Oh, yes! I agree with Jane Fonda! Those in Whoopie, too! I'll also agree with your burger! Good last question! It will be interesting to see what they end up using! Have a blessed week ahead!! xo

    1. Oh yes, Whoopie, too! Unfortunately, the candidates' list is long.

  17. Gosh, so much to ponder here. Everyone else chipped in with some good thoughts too. I agree with you on Jane Fonda, but there may be some others in there as well. I look forward to heaven, where all our questions will be answered automatically. What a day that will be! We will have the mind of Christ and understand it all, and see the BIG picture of our lives that He has been watching all along. And I also love the smell of a sweet CLEAN new baby! Re: regrets of things not done...or wish I had done...I really can't answer that. I wish I could go back and change some things, but I know that Jesus has paid it all, and He has washed me white as snow...so that's all that really matters at this point. This was a good post. Thank you for making us think!

  18. Here's a proposed question: After relatives, who is the first person you would look for in heaven? I would choose C.S. Lewis.

  19. thecontemplativecat here. Great questions, I shall borrow them and write my answers soon. Thanks. No snowmen??

  20. Well, can't say Jane Fonda is my favorite person - lol. You are so right about babies and their wonderful smell and soft skin. A miracle.

  21. I enjoyed your answers! I love your future question! I also really like your "Be Kind" answer :-)

    ReplyDelete
  22. That was fun. I enjoyed reading your answers to these questions. Hope you have a great week.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I love the Be Kind answer and my question is
    What would you do if you found a duck egg laying in the hot sun on your concrete pool deck? I know the answer because I just did find one.
    I built a snow man 2 times when I was 10 and 12 and a 3rd when I was 25, the last time I saw snow

  24. This was such a warm and thoughtful read. I enjoyed how you moved from light humor into deeper reflection, especially that question to your future self, it really lingers. Your island rule feels like one that would quietly make everything better if more people lived by it. I also liked your choice of Amarone, that’s a classic, steady kind of comfort. If you ever did bake that birthday cake, what kind would it be, something traditional or something a bit unexpected?
