Just Jot It January 11th – Effortless

~

I don’t know about you, but I feel that there is nothing that is totally effortless. You have to put in a little effort to just live, don’t you? Now, lots of things seem to be done effortlessly, because the ones doing whatever it is, have been doing it for a long time, and have had time to practice doing it. To us is seems effortless, but really it took hard work to get to that point.

I had to put in some effort to think of something to write about effortless. Nothing much was coming to me, so I just thought I’d do an anagram of the word. That was a few minutes of fun. If you’d like to try it, now’s your chance! 🙂

The word is Effortless … make as many words as you can using the letters from the word, in only 2 minutes. (I got 25)

Have fun! 🙂

The movie I thought of is one of my favorites…”Pulp Fiction”. It was released in 1994, by Quentin Tarantino. It has quite a few well-known actors, including John Travolta, Samuel L. Jackson, Uma Thurman, and Bruce Willis, among others. There are lots of memorable quotes for this movie, but most are just not appropriate for this blog. 😉 One, that I’ll paraphrase/summarize briefly goes something like this… “What do they call a quarter pounder in Paris? … A Royale with Cheese” … It’s much more funny to see them say it in the movie.

Our whole family likes this movie, and devised a game for us to play at home. We took a small chalkboard, and a dry erase board, and hung them up so everyone could see and participate. One was titled ‘Movie Quotes’ and the other ‘Song Lyrics’. We all had a different name, those character names in the movie Pulp Fiction, that were written on the bottom of the boards. One of us would think of a quote or song lyric (from this movie, or any other movie or song we could think of) and we’d write it down. Another of us would have to answer it, by writing it on the board. The one who got it right first, got a point. Well, it was lots of fun. I’ve included a couple of pictures of our boards. We must have erased some of the writing on them (it was quite a long time ago that we’d played), but I kept the boards, to remind me of all the fun we had doing this game. 🙂

Here are the pictures …

OCTPOWRIMO – POEMS – DAY # 22 – ONE TRUTH, TWO LIES

Standard

OCTPOWRIMO – POEMS – DAY # 22 – ONE TRUTH, TWO LIESIMG_20150928_151453

Today’s prompt was to play a fun game with your poem. Based on a game people play…you make statements about yourself, using a true fact, and two lies. People try to guess which one is the true one. Anyway, it took me forever to even think of some statements. Then…why on Earth did I decide to do another Paradelle poem? It was hard. It took all afternoon. I’m not sure I did it right, even now, but this is what I give you for your entertainment…and, which do you think is my true fact? 🙂

ONE TRUTH, TWO LIES

A truth or a lie is never just black or white

A truth or a lie is never just black or white

Ask me no favors, no promises I keep

Ask me no favors, no promises I keep

Never is a black promise or a white favor

Ask me no lie, just for truth, and I keep…

There’s grains of truth in every lie

There’s grains of truth in every lie

I want to go swimming with the fish in the deep

I want to go swimming with the fish in the deep

There’s deep truth in every swimming fish

Go to the grains with the lie of ‘I want in’

A lie is just a hidden truth

A lie is just a hidden truth

I can’t sit still unless I’m falling asleep

I can’t sit still unless I’m falling asleep

Just sit still…a truth is falling asleep

Unless I’m hidden, I can’t lie

Unless I go swimming, I’m never falling asleep

Fish still want to ask me favors, in the deep grains

White lie is never just black/or is in every truth a lie?

There’s just no promises I can’t keep hidden…A truth…I sit with the Truths of a Lie
