6. What did you dislike most about growing up?
A. Chores. I had a lot of chores.
7. Write about five activities you love the most and why you love them.
A. Reading books, because they take you to other worlds, playing guitar, because music takes you to another space, writing, because it allows you to put on paper whatever you're thinking, hugs because they make me feel loved, and dancing (when no one is watching) because it makes me feel free.
8. Do you have an embarrassing moment that still makes you cringe?
A. Yes. But that doesn't mean I have to write about it.

I, too, struggle with keeping my mouth closed. A friend said he has to "bite his tongue until it bleeds" to keep from blurting out things! I'm so proud of you for standing up to the bully!! I know that sounds silly since we don't really "know" each other, but I think it is so important to not be bullied.
ReplyDelete#1 yes #2 maybe - I hink there are times I SHOULD have opened my mouth, or opened it earlier before it boiled over.
ReplyDelete#2. I said in my post that I "wear my heart on my sleeve" which means sometimes I too need to keep my mouth shut. I am getting better but as Lisa says "biting your tongue until it bleeds" is not easy.
ReplyDelete#7. That's like me -apart from dancing (I can't dance at all).
:o)
Cheers

I hate that you are very lonely. I just hate that for you and I wish I could change it. I live by myself and can't get out much and I get lonely too. My computer opens the world for me really. I began taking courses online to keep up with school which I love. Of course I would prefer it in person! Yeah.. keeping the mouth shut. I am learning to do that as I have strong opinions that I now understand are not for everyone. Boy is that hard to do.
ReplyDeletehow nice that you got taken to lunch. Walt never thinks of doing that.
