My younger brother would do better than me with this prompt. Like so many youngest children, he is an astute observer of his mother, and he can accurately impersonate/roast her at a moment’s notice. (Zoe can do the same thing with me!) When my mom does something thoughtless (like turning the oven on when a…
Um. This feels like a tricky question. An opposite question “Is it always a bad thing to lie?” feels a little simpler. (My answer would be, most of the time, with some rare exceptions. And it takes a lot of wisdom to figure out those exceptions.) To the question at hand: I think that, as…
Oh boy. Ummm, I don’t really think of myself as much of a leader. I really don’t like being in charge of a group or a program. Or a bunch of people. I don’t want to make a bunch of decisions that affect a bunch of people, I don’t like dealing with people being unhappy…
My word, this could be a very long list! A shorter prompt would be, “Who are you not rooting for?” (In case you are not familiar with this idiom, it just means to cheer someone on.) The first answer that came to mind: my kids. I am always hoping for them to have success, to…
I don’t know that there are a lot of people that I exactly clash with. I mean, if someone drives me crazy or I disagree with them about multitudes of things, I am still usually non-confrontational enough to prevent an actual clash. So maybe I should answer this: “What types of people do you not…
I would immediately say that fall or spring are my favorite seasons. Why? That’s the time of year when we get that lovely in-between weather, where it’s not too cold and not too hot. Plus there’s so much beauty in both of those seasons; the blooms of spring, the wild colors of fall. And change…
A lot of days, I feel like I don’t have tons of free time. But that is probably not entirely true, because a number of the things I fill my days with are choices, not things that are thrust upon me. For instance, I could tell you I’ve been so busy because of all the…
I like pizza all right, but not nearly as much as Mr. FG does. He could eat pizza many times a week, for weeks in a row, and not get tired of it. I, on the other hand, can only handle pizza about once a week. At any rate, I’m going to modify this prompt…
