I could teach you how to speak my language, Rosetta Stone
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2014/02/10/daily-post-take-that-rosetta/ If you don’t get the lyric reference, I won’t judge you. If you do; yay you! I’ve had quite a few brushes with language; because of my interest in culture. I go on these culture interest binges and of course, a big part of understanding cultural nuance is language. Growing up in a melting…

Your turn to wash the dishes
While I love cooking, I hate washing dishes. Yes, hate. The “deal” in my household is whoever cooks, is absolved from washing dishes. This still doesn’t work because I hate washing dishes, even on the days when I didn’t cook. I can’t identify what it is about the task itself that I hate; but I…

Daily Prompt: Kindness

http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2014/01/14/daily-prompt-one/ I’d want the one person to be someone that needed to read what I wrote. I don’t know what I would say, but I would hope they found solace and a sense of peace while reading. That they would know that they were not alone, not struggling through life by themselves. As long as…

Daily Prompt: Heroic
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2014/01/10/daily-prompt-hero/ I don’t remember who my hero was at 5, but considering I wanted to be a Ninja Turtle with all my heart…I’ll go with Leonardo. I sincerely believed at the time that I could do it, I just needed to learn how to fight. The issue that arose very quickly with the physical aspects…

Daily Prompts – Stand Still
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2013/09/24/daily-prompt-stillness/ If time were to stop right now, it would be near perfect. I’m watching http://www.saltybet.com on the computer, Ice Age: Continental Drift and this is one of the rare times that my cat is sprawled across me. If I could tweak this moment, I would move the cat to bed and I would still…

Of a certain age…
I’ve officially gotten to that age where I’m looking for meaning in everything in the past; bastardizing Facebook to get back in contact with friends that I casually walked away from and I’m looking forward hoping that life’s lessons and the people I have around me will help me move forward. The people who were…
