Today it’s been 12 years since my mother passed away. Below is a post about it from last year.

Time does fly, and it’s like a light bulb. Life can end any day, and that’s why you should spend it the way you want to. As long as it’s legal and doesn’t affect your health. Not wasting time on something you can’t control. Too many worry about what others think about them. But it doesn’t matter because you are who you are. You should dare to be different.

It’s about being positive. Many people see what’s wrong with the world instead of what is good about it. Even the news tells bad news all the time. So let’s find something positive to think about. It doesn’t need to be anything significant. It can be a walk in the park or sitting on the couch watching movies. Or just eat a cookie.

“Have you ever performed on stage or given a speech?” – Daily Writing Prompt

I performed on stage when I was a kid. In school plays. I would never give a speech, no way. I hate public speaking. When I was on stage, I preferred to have no speaking parts. I don’t like people looking at me, waiting for me to make a mistake. I don’t want that much attention. I got that enough from home. I even hate doing presentations in front of a lot of people. If it were with one or two people, it would be different. I leave the performances to those who like doing them. School plays were enough. That’s a change I’m going to keep.

Just an illusion

If you don’t know it, but I love 1980s music. When I saw the word “Illusion,” I thought of this 80s song. It’s ‘Just an Illusion’ by Imagination.

There is no music like this today. Songs that are as good in 30 years or more after their release. I think music has gone down in the 2020s. I can’t imagine those songs still sounding good decades later. At least not the same way as 1980s music. Or decades before. It’s just an illusion if it happens.
