Have you ever imagined to go to a place in a book or outer space? Somewhere fantastical that you know you never will get to, but it’s just so sweet to imagine what might happen?
So today we travel to fantastical destinations: celebrate your imaginary destination
We celebrate fellow humans and things we love, and so a celebration is part of “Love Is In Da Blog”. Maybe you are not the imaginary type? Then write about a place of your choosing. I wrote about something entirely different. You know, all your creativity is welcomed here at #LoIsInDaBl.
Bee at Just Fooling Around With Bee said :It is the last week of #LoIsInDaBl, and I wondered what could be the wordless post.
The best I could come up with was:
Share a photo you love
I think an open prompt is right to let our creative child play along. Maybe this gives you some ideas for March to write and blog about. But, of course, you do not need to follow this prompt. Write as much or as less as you want to you. Share lots of photo’s or none. It is entirely up to you how you want to go about today’s “Wordless Again”. Pingback
Bee at Just Fooling Around With Bee said: Allow yourself to sit or lay down. Have music on that you like or a candle or even some lovely essential oils and then just be. Breath out. Breathe in. Let the tension and everything go and imagine the word LOVE in huge letters.
Keep on breathing and when you feel like it get up and write down what came to mind.
So for tomorrow the prompt is
A mindful exercise
which you have already done and you may let us know what you learned in your post.
As always: You can but you do not need to follow the prompt. Feel free to create whatever floats your blog 🙂
So Bee has asked us for loved songs from our childhood. Well I was very much younger than my brothers and sisters I can remember their music being played all over the house on the old grey and red Dansette record player.
There was Pat Boon, Elvis, Johnny Mathis, Buddy Holly, Matt Munro and a blond guy from London , in fact Acton Town which was about four miles up the road from where we lived . That was Adam Faith and I fell in love with his voice and then as I grew older with him!
It was by next brother who loved Adam Faith and Buddy Holly and both of them s much but it is Adam Faith who made the biggest impression on me as a child !
My most favourite song was Who am I ! My favourite Line ? easy: ” Never again to sit and cry, Who Am I, Who Am I. I’ll tell my heart this time it’s really true.. I’ll tell no I’m Mr mighty high and your the reason why, aye aye aye the ask me who am I?
Adam Faith Who Am I? Lyrics
Who Am I , Who Am I
A thousand times they ask why, Who Am I, Who am I.
That I should dare to fall in love with you.
I never meant to aim so high, Who Am I Who Am I.
Well now I ask you what am I to do.
Am I supposed to sit and cry, Who Am I, Who Am I,
To tell my heart this is’nt really true.
I’ll tell no lies, I’m mister mighty high.
And you’re the reason why they ask me, Who Am I
No longer no one,
Because I’m your one,
That makes me someone,
And this I know who am I without you.
Never again to sit and cry, Who Am I, Who Am I.
I’ll tell my heart this time it’s really true.
I’ll tell no lies, I’m mister mighty high.
And you’re the reason why they ask me, Who Am I.
Who Am I Who Am I.
Just write with this prompt or head over to Linda’s “Stream of Consciousness Saturday” and be inspired by her. Or even more exciting: combine both 🙂.
Now that gives you a little choice 😉
Linda at A Life in progress said: Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “contraction.” Make the first word of your post a contraction. For extra points make the last word one too. Have fun!quickly Pingback and Rules
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Found,lost love letters hidden in plain sight.
Under the bookcase tied up with string.
When spotted her heart took flight.
Grabbing them quickly, her nerves went ping.
Dear Rebecca the first one read
I miss you , I need you by my side
Rebecca? she repeated, eyes wide
Shock, her name was, Cloe instead.
Not wanting to, yet desparate to know
She devowering every word, felt sick
Each reference to kiss or touch a blow.
Every endearment in her throat did stick
Good job, she mused, that he was gone
If still alive his life would not be worth a song
It was coming back to her now
His secretary was Rebecca skinny Sow!
Bee at Just Fooling Around With Bee said: Fridays will all be about blog love. Celebrate a blog or just a post, that you love. That can be one of yours or someone else’s. It can be a blog about love or just a blog you love. As long as you give it some credit and share it with us it will be fine! This is also a great possibility to use the WordPress reblog button.
Please show us all those exciting blogs or posts that you love!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oh! It is Friday again and I find Fridays task very hard! Because there are so many amazing blogs out there that I love. I just don’t want anyone to feel left out! So here we go again decision time.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So this week let me introduce you to Bear at Bearspawprint An old woman getting older, her words not mine!
BEARSPAWPRINT
I’ve been known by other names, but I am both Agawela and Bear, for now, and Bearspawprint is the sign that am leaving.
Bearspawprint is as a shadow, a passing wind whispering words, a memory almost composed
Now and again I feel an urge to dance that youthful life dance, but really it is more nostalgia for the joy that comes when wonder flows and surges and requires expression.
I’ve been greatly blessed in this life. I’ve been allowed to have adventures, see beautiful places, meet amazing people, hear incredible musicians, participate in joyous experiences, and care for children, experience love. Once in while I am able to transcend my sorry mess of a self, and be free … and some of the rest of the time I can pretend.
Agawela … Bear

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Check out Bear’s About page here
When I first met Bear I was in a dark place and she recognized this. In her calm and caring way she drew me out and encouraged me to experiment and expand myself. Her musical tastes are truly eclectic an she has introduced me to so much.
Bear has such an open mind she has listened to and enjoyed some of my musical tastes too! A few years back Bear encouraged a few of us to join her in what started off as weekly Music themes we all enjoyed and stretched ourselves here is one of Bears most beautiful post Death and Rebirth please do go and feast your eyes and ears!
Then there are bear’s fabulous conversations with Bump onna Log. Here is how Bear explains this section.
CONVERSATIONS WITH BUMP ONNA LOG is composed of quotes from a composite group of not so fictitious persons. I will use actual quotes without permission. The BUMP ONNA LOG persona is composed of male, female, old, young, personally known, and merely overheard. No one will be personally identified. It may be that you will recognize some of these bits of dialogue and/or comments. If I quote “Bear”, mostly likely I really did say what I credit myself with saying, but maybe I didn’t. I am sure there are those who would debate my recall. If I misquote anyone, it is entirely my own fault, and maybe I did it on purpose, or even by accident. *******************
.
.
BEAR: Bump Onna Log, I forgive you….
.
BUMP ONNA LOG: What for? I didn’t do anything.
.
BEAR: … and I forgive you for not apologizing …
.
BUMP ONNA LOG: Just forget it. It’s water under the bridge.
.
Bear: I would feel a little bit better though, if you did apologize and …
.
BUMP ONNA LOG: But there’s nothin’ for me to be sorry for. I didn’t do anything to be sorry about.
.
Bear: I forgive you anyway ..
.
BUMP ONNA LOG: I wasn’t aware that I did anything … You just exaggerate everything! You never listen to a word I say! (turning and starting to walk away) Mutter, mutter, mumble, heifer, mumble…
.
BEAR: (hurrying to catch up and get in line of sight) I’m sorry, I was trying to listen, but I just didn’t hear what you said when you turned your back and walked away. Were you talking to me?
.
BUMP ONNA LOG: What’s the use of even trying, you don’t ever pay attention, and that’s all your imagination!!
.
BEAR: But I do want to know what you want to say to me.
.
BUMP ONNA LOG: I don’t want to say anything! Now quit throwing it in my face! I told you, that is all your imagination. Bygones are bygones. Let it alone! There is just no pleasing you! (Turns to walk in a different direction) mutter mutter … I have to … mutter mutter… mutter work … mutter put up with … mumble …. inaudible
.
BEAR: Do you want me to know what you are saying? I am able to hear a word hear /here (starts to giggle) and here …..
.
BUMP ONNA LOG: You always make an argument out of everything ….
Bee at Just fooling around with Bee said :On Thursdays, we travel and this week we really go for it: Countries we love . It does not need to be a country you have been to. Maybe you plan to go to your dream destination, or maybe you know you will never go there. But beware: next weeks will be about “fantastical places we love”. Of course you can go wild and do something entirely different. No matter what: share a photo, a story, a poem, a drawing, a travel report, travel information….. anything goes on #LoIsInDaBl but preferably something about LOVE! 🙂
Today is Wednesday and Bee at Just Fooling Around with Bee said: I have prompted you to think about many aspects of love so far but one topic I have left out entirely. Maybe because right now we only have fish as a pet. Hopefully, soon we can invite a new dog though into our lives. But first things first: move and then we’ll see.
So today’s Wordless #LoIsInDaBl prompt is: Pets, familiars, animal spirits we love!
It doesn’t need to be a pet that you deposit in your wordless post. It can just be an animal you like, the familiar you live with, an animal spirit who guides you, your neighbours dog who cheers you up or the neighbours cat. Or you just put a photo up that you love or that you connect with love. Or please feel free to do something entirely different. You know #LoIsInDaBl is about creative freedom. Feel free to let your creative energy go wild!
A teaser from a classic love story (with or without broken hearts)
Let’s go sophisticated and remember what we were told to read in school. Or if you are a lover of classic literature then by all means share what you are reading now. Of course, you do not need to follow this prompt nor the Teaser Tuesday meme. Just write, draw, photograph, sing, dance, paint, crochet….. you get the gist …. about LOVE!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pingback
Tuesday for me is always very very hard! Teaser Tuesday should be renamed Tuesday Torment for me!
I think the classics are not for me, you may be asking why
Fairies, Elves, Vampires, Warewolves and heroes are what I desire
The otherly and fantasy have always been what sets my soul on fire!!

“Once a King in Narnia, always a King in Narnia. But don’t go trying to use the same route twice. Indeed, don’t try to get there at all. It’ll happen when you’re not looking for it. And don’t talk too much about it even among yourselves. And don’t mention it to anyone else unless you find that they’ve had adventures of the same sort themselves. What’s that? How will you know? Oh, you’ll know all right. Odd things, they say-even their looks-will let the secret out. Keep your eyes open. Bless me, what do they teach them at these schools.”
-The Professor”
― C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
“To the sea, to the sea! The white gulls are crying,
The wind is blowing, and the white foam is flying.
West, west away, the round sun is falling,
Grey ship, grey ship, do you hear them calling,
The voices of my people that have gone before me?
I will leave, I will leave the woods that bore me;
For our days are ending and our years failing.
I will pass the wide waters lonely sailing.
Long are the waves on the Last Shore falling,
Sweet are the voices in the Lost Isle calling,
In Eressea, in Elvenhome that no man can discover,
Where the leaves fall not: land of my people forever!”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings
Well here we are into 3rd week of Love Is In Da Blog and Bee at Just Fooling Around With Bee said : Today I want to keep it simple. Or maybe it is not simple if you haven’t come into contact with “Mindfulness” so far.
Before I go to today’s prompt I want to quote Colleen over at “Silverthreading” who gives us the brilliant “Mindful Monday ~ Healthy Living” meme: ” I have found that being mindful encompasses the act of being watchful, aware, wary, heedful, alert, careful, or attentive, in whatever area in my life I feel it applies to, as I attempt to live in the present.”
I think that is a brilliant description of what Mindfulness might mean.
So today’s prompt is
Do you love Mindfulness?
Some food for thought here even though it does not directly fit in with Colleens “Healthy Living” topic.
Now my friends go and get your thinking boots on 😉
