A Short Random Thought: Knowing of vs. Knowing


Knowing of vs. Knowing

 

The woman or man that you meet---study, learn, and examine them to understand:

Where do they come from?

Where are they going?

What is their background?

What are their desires? Goals? Aspirations? Regrets? Secrets?

Mistakes? Likes? Dislikes? Wants? Needs?

What inspires them? Who inspires them?

What makes them happy? Sad?

Take notes of their actions. Moods.

Whether they are: Alone. With people. With you.

Consider their relationships with their parents, friends, social groups, and occupation?

Consider their relationship with children---own or another’s?

How do they care, respond, and/or treat that person?

These actions will perhaps be the same for you or what you bestow upon them/others.

The point: know someone by spirit not by name, status, class, size, color, or affiliation.

Knowing them beyond the width of their soul proves that their spirit speaks louder than tongue.

PAD Challenge Day 27: 🎂 Cake 🎂 and Eat It Too

PAD Challenge Day 27: Write an an anapodoton poem. Cake and Eat It Too  Life is not always berry sweet full of confetti, rainbows  and butteflies in our circle of life. It can sprinkle unfortunate surprises. We can receive lemons after lemons  in a dark black forest of medley roses, even when our hearts are red velvet. Anywhere there's an Angel, a Devil will try to cake up; Get rich off your Godly confections. Kind of ice cold to say, Vanilla and Chocolate  will never always have a fair  share of what rises and pans out. The entanglement of the swirl  is just as incompatible and conflicting. No matter the number of layers, some will be handed corners, others more centers of it all. No matter how small, medium or large; Short or tall; Buttercream is not always  creme de la creme to us all. But we must keep a glaze  on God's miracle whips. Keep whisking the  ingredients of prayer  and supplication to bake  our special purposes on Earth. D'ElegantOne

I'm A Growing Woman Intro

Welcome Readers, It is not an easy transition into a grown woman from a girl. But I manage. I’m succeeding my womanhood, individuality, and essence to make the best of what I call “my life”.   Everything is everything. I am everything but a lot of things are not me.   No, I am not the most perfect person in the world but I know who is: God.   Sometimes I seem to think that I am too much of a woman. Why? Because I bare and yield all good fruit that humanity should feed from, but not all human beings aim for the fresh, sweet fruit. I have yet to find the match to my peach. I can live without the superficial, and only require what’s deeply real I’m no short talker, but more of a big dreamer. I mean what I say and I say what I mean. I live by it; my words are heavily bonded to my heart….. I’m much of a lover with a substantial heart--- a heart that is teaching me to be kind, patient, and loving all over again----every day. At times, I think I need a new one, because I love so deep.
