Questions? (Meme)
Gulnaz has tagged me with a confusing meme, no questions, only answers. Generally, I assume the opposite. Still, here it is. If you can come up with other answers to unasked questions, or questions for these answers, feel free.
1. Judge me, ignore me, contradict me, even join me. I love to share interests, but I also love to be challenged. I can respect any taste that is self aware. I love good movies, but also bad ones, if they are bad enough with enough energy and conviction. Let me know where you stand, and let me hold my position, I respect sureness, even if it is certain confusion.
2. Beauty is strong, and stark plainness draws me in, but it's all in my own eye. There is no external standard, it's all relative. I've little patience for merely pretty, lukewarm, obedient pleasure.
3. Nothing like writing and writing, then a phrase turns just right, and says more than I'd intended.
4. I've had to learn loyalty from loyal friends. Very few people intentionally betray, they simply can only see themselves. We fail each other all the time, while still having to rub along. Have to get up and do a little better, be a bit more aware, open ourselves up to understanding, live up to the kindnesses that we are given. Anger is self indulgent, a selfish reaction to frustration, a toxic self feeding action.
5. Dancing is life, done well or clumsily, alone or in pairs or circles, with hands or feet or simple sway.
6. I worry. I try not to let it turn into an overwhelming, self defeating habit. I'm over responsible, and have worked hard to honor those around me enough to trust them to chose for themselves. I've grown calmer and less intrusive when I only worry about my own failings, and grow more forgiving of even those.
7. I have given up coke/pepsi etc. Only this year, after many attempts, and I'm very proud of this. Bad for the bones. Expensive and useless habit. I have plenty of tea, chocolate and beer, which at least have some benefit. Cola doesn't even taste good unless overindulged.
8. I like protocols and handrails, in work, in my physical world. Can't stand regimented beliefs, or restricted spirituality, and have bushwhacked my own path for my soul.

I am so happy I asked you to do this meme and am even happier for the unintended confusion, which i apologise for again....i loved reading your answers...you have such a knack for writing the deepest of things in the simplest of ways.
thanks for doing this. :)
I have never understood these 'X random facts about me' memes. It is the blogging equivalent of an organism with DNA made from sunshine and clouds. I know that plants may well have DNA made from sunshine and clouds (at least in part), but it is unseemly nevertheless.
I have figured out some of the questions you are answering, but they are all rude, and I see why you did not include them in the post.
"bushwhacked my own path for my soul."
As in number 3, I'd think.
(0) and (0)
Actually, I assumed I'd missed the questions, but you are right, random facts. Huh. Nope, I don't like the random facts memes either. Read eight of my posts, bobsyeruncle! So, I did this wrong, anyway, since these are not facts, so much as responses to another's answers to presumed questions.
Trust me to look too deeply, then throw up something anyway.
