Reflections on the lighter side

Heart and Vision
I like movies that have ideas. I am swooned by film with heart and vision. This is my top ten list, not listed in order (It was hard enough to come up with ten): The Four Seasons (1981), for its heart and humor; The Blind Side (2009) for its heart; Forbidden Planet (1956), for its… Continue reading

Boring
The good thing where I live is: no hurricanes, rarely threat of tornado, no forest fires, no floods (I live on a hill), no street protests, no traffic and we live high enough above the sea level that the melting of the ice caps probably won’t reach us. But I do worry about the zombie… Continue reading

Chewing Gum
It’s nice to know that politicians can walk and chew gum at the same time, but I cringe when I hear this phrase. Multi-tasking used to be the way to describe the ability to work on more than one thing at once, but I guess the gum cartel wanted to get their two cents in.… Continue reading

Not Phone
In this modern age, it is tempting to say that the portable phone is the most important thing to carry. I can take pictures. I can locate places with GPS, meaning it’s hard to get lost, except when I’m in an area where the maps are inaccurate and the phone tells me I’m at my… Continue reading

Cat’s Chair
My cat is always taking my chair, the one in my office or the one where I watch television. I have a shirt depicting a cat asking why I am in his chair. It’s so spot on. Sometimes I don’t fight him; he’s too darn cute, looking at me declaring his territory. Other times, I… Continue reading

Learning
I almost want to say I’m curious about everything. I like to learn. I take classes to learn new things. While I watch shows, I look up the background of the actors and the movies. It’s something I got from my mother, she did the same thing by reading. I use my phone. It was… Continue reading

Cat Who Would Be King
My cat, a white and gray long hair Main Coon, is my shadow, which is also his name. I fight him for my chairs. Occasionally I battle with him for the coveted seats, but most of the time I give up. He’s persistent. He also harasses me until I feed him. He better watch it… Continue reading

The Bond of Traditions
My wife and I wanted to establish traditions for our kids, annual trips to the orchard, going to the theater on a holiday, breakfast in bed on birthdays and Easter Egg hunts to name a few. My Mom did the egg hunt bit, boiling eggs, letting us color them, then hiding them for us to… Continue reading

Flippant
Today’s prompt is a silly little question, so I have a silly little answer. Today was not typical, because the outside temperature was pleasant, not hot and humid which is normal for this time of year. The news tells stories of the world on fire, record heat waves, but where I live everything is looking… Continue reading

Bashful
I was taught not to brag. It seems unnatural to describe myself. I have a book published but I don’t know how to get it noticed because I’m terrible at self-promotion. I am more comfortable stating how others describe me: honest, accepting, giving, funny and loyal. Then, I concur, but I’m blushing. Continue reading
