Do you play in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you?

View all responses

20230610-1045. I don’t play in my daily life and playtime means nothing to me. I’m too serious to even consider playing. I used to play and have fun during my younger years but no more.

I’m too old and cranky and I don’t wanna break anything; although I do tend to bump into and drop things.

I used to play the piano if that counts as “playtime”. I do NOT play games online because the fast motion on the screen makes me feel sick and dizzy.

The only “playtime” I would probably experience is chatting online more recently or text messaging, which I seldomly do anyways.

What are your biggest challenges?

View all responses

20230610-1034. I lack the self-confidence due to the fear of being judged – what others think or might say. I guess that could someone like me who can’t take criticism and expect the world to be perfect according to how I want it.

And that has always been what others already could tell within the first few seconds of meeting: too easy. Too easy to laugh out loud. Too easy to agree so as NOT to loose the conversation. Too easy to disappoint. Always trying to please even though it hurts.

Besides the initial positive vibes, I still have many more hurdles to overcome, such as listening well, talking over others to be heard, talking too loudly due to hard of hearing, and the uncertainty if others are listening to me.

As a result, I lack proper social skills and probably could brush up on my etiquette as I’ve failed to establish any sort of long-lasting relationships with my own relatives due to distance. I do NOT have any friends and strangers don’t really care or give a damn. So I resort to online activities to keep busy, such as answering daily prompts and reading chats, news feeds, and texting.

20230610-0048. I have no choice but to stay with him because there’s nobody else.

My younger brother doesn’t care as much as I would expect. Dad doesn’t really care either.

I’m the elder sister; so that’s by default to be the primary caregiver of a parent. All I do is cook, clean, chauffeur, converse very briefly, and then hide in my bedroom.

Plus, I’ve been unemployed for most of my life and so I’ve been so insulated from the “real world” that it’s almost next to impossible for me to assimilate with humanz.

But I’m stuck within a niche of freaks, weirdos, and other unwanted souls online. Yeah in other words it’s boring and like I said, I don’t chat much with my Dad.

20230609-0459. I’d change my name to be Felicia. That’s spelled Feli-CIA. Y’all know like double-oh-seven! Undercover operative. Investigative journalist. Masculine infiltrator.

Do you remember your favorite book from childhood?

View all responses

20230607-0000. But I really don’t have any favorite book. I still remember the title “Around the World with Koa Koala”. My younger brother and I still have this childhood book. We had many books.

But one day, my mother and I donated many of my childhood book to our local library which is located within the campus site of my OLD high school to this day. These were books that we no longer read.

List three books that have had an impact on you. Why?

View all responses

20230606-0002. Here are three books that I’ve read only once but did have an impact on me. These books were authored by our favorite daily messenger. I’ve obtained these three signed books before 2008, I believe.

• Angels in a Harsh World (1998)
  • Angels are blessings in disguise but do experience tribulations, too.
• The Teaching (1996)
  • I can’t recall exactly but experience, knowledge and life are great teachers.
• The Significance of the One (1995)
  • There is only One and we should know that our actions affect others.

I would include other books, such as the Bible, which I’ve recently been listening on my blog site here as audio books narrated by Paul Johnson. 20230606-0038.

What fears have you overcome and how?

View all responses

20230605-1155. I still sleep with my night lights on. I still fear the dark.

But yesterday our favorite podcaster sounded frustrated over our Skype phone call that I needed to turn off the night lights.

So last night I prepared my shielding, read a few Bible passages, covered my eyeballs with more shielding, turned off the lights and got out my stainless steel tool.

Within a few minutes and probably on/about 0100 am my local time, I felt attacks upon my lower extremities.

I still couldn’t see what was going on because my eyelids were closed and I had my shielding over my eyeballs.

But just when I thought that I was finished and getting tired from being sorely saddened over missing the sound of his soothing voice, I felt my upper torso vibrating!

I then took my stainless steel tool and started praying and then kept asking Dad for assurance as I commanded my night time fears to be rebuked, banished or sent and seal to dry places deep below forever and ever.

Since that session, I am NO longer afraid of the dark! I will attempt to try sleeping with my night lights turned off. But I will continue to battle my night time fears!

Describe one simple thing you do that brings joy to your life.

20230604-1808. I’ve finished vacuuming up one and one-half rows or slots of this chunky chocolate chips cookies! And I feel happy but also full that I had to stop!

Unfortunately, I’ve ruined my appetite for supper tonight. So I’d better drink down some refreshing water so the “dough” won’t stick too much inside my stomach.

Chocolate is my favorite “dessert” flavor. And eating these cookies helped with my sadness after sorely missing the soothing voice of our favorite podcaster who is always busy.

20230604-1001. That’s correct. I’m Oriental and I love eating noodles.

Unfortunately, I don’t know how to make a noodle dish. So I resort to boiling dried noodles.

I save the flavoring or seasoning packet that comes with the dried noodles for making other soul dishes later on.

When I could afford to travel, I would love to visit different noodle houses. That would bring me joy in my life, too.

How do you know when it’s time to unplug? What do you do to make it happen?

View all responses

20230603-1907. As I age, I have free time listening to my KJV audio bible book via my Apple Music app for desktop computer. I like how the Apple Music app shuffles (randomly) the 66 KJV audio books.

The duration time of each book runs from at least one hour to three hours. Per our favorite podcaster today, reading or preferably listening to the KJV bible is strongly recommended daily and for at least two hours per day.

The narrator for these audio files is Paul Johnson. I downloaded these audio files from the eliyah.com website, which uses the WordPress platform, too! There are only three books that were NOT recorded. I wonder if both guys are related.

Since this is such a new experience for me being born and raised an RCC but never really reading the Bible, I don’t mind being reminded by the Bible who created EVERYTHING from the macrocosm to the microcosm BUT who is transcended from HIS creation, meaning we all have freewill and are as such assigned certain traits which we are “forced” to appreciate and struggle.

So after a while of listening to the KJV audio bible books, I would nod off to sleep and that’s a good time to unplug and to go to bed for another restful sleep.

What quality do you value most in a friend?

View all responses

20230602-0000. Basically, someone who is normal. I’ve NOT met anyone without some issues or problems. So there’s NO chance that I could every find a friend that is perfect in every way, shape or form.

As a result, I’ve kept pretty much to myself. There is little anxiety and stress when it comes to socializing with others who are, well, imperfect, like me. I would hope a friend would possess at least four qualities off the top of my head: fidelity, honestly, integrity, and loyalty.
