Melanie provides the questions & I toos in my two cents, worth 1/2 a penny due to inflation.
QUESTIONS
What mythical creature would improve the world most if it existed? A fairy who could make pain disappear. Not just physical pain but mental anguish too.
Should the death penalty be re-instated? Why or why not? In Texas, we have the death penalty & the distinction of being #1 executing on average 12 people a year. I’m not quite sure how I feel about that. Makes me sad, I guess. Very, very sad that there isn’t another alternative.
Spontaneity Or Stability? Depends on the situation, mostly I crave stability & fortunately I hit the jackpot with that but every once in a while to be spontaneous is exciting. My goal one day, if I ever get my head on straight again, would be to get on an airplane to anywhere with only my purse. I could buy what I need when I get there or better yet go somewhere that doesn’t require me to need very much. If only, …
Can a dog/cat suffer? What about an ant? What about a plant? What about a bacteria cell? Why do some humans think we’re the only species that does suffer? Your thoughts? Yes a dog or cat can suffer. As for ants, plants, or bacteria cells, I have no idea. Humans are one of the most egotistical of the species which is why some of us (not all) think we’re the only ones who suffer.
GRATITUDE SECTION
What are two things that have brightened your day today? First, I accidentally slept past the alarm. I quit snoozing after reading an article that said I’d feel better if I just got up with the alarm. Going on two years now, I just get the “eff” up. Today after a bad yesterday & for reasons that will be kept under wraps, I said ‘eff’ it, I’m going to snooze today. Only I hit stop on my alarm instead of snooze. Oh well, I got an extra hour!! I must’ve needed it. Second, I learned a trick for a new tool at work where you right click to open a tab in a new window then you can toggle back and forth. This tip will make for smooth sailing on an upcoming assignment.
Thanks Jilly for Sharing Your World! Sleep is (IMO) one of the best things in life, and when our bodies say they’re tired out, we should listen. Yay for the extra hour! Your mythical creature is a great idea. How would a world like that be? The death penalty is a very complicated issue and I’m real glad I don’t make those decisions. It is sad that Texas has such a ‘good’ record, but I also have to wonder if anyone is looking into alterative solutions to keep society safe or ‘cure’ the criminal. Hard issue. Man is an entitled animal to suppose that it is the only creature who feels pain. But others might think that’s ‘new age’ type thinking. Have a great week! Thanks for participating!

Oh the joys of retirement. Tons of doc appts, but no need to wake for work.

Sounds lovely because even if lots of doc appts, if I have a good book, I’m set to wait.
