Hello everyone! It’s that time again. Here are the monthly questions for everyone to ponder. I hope each of you will take the time to mull them over. And of course, my own answers are listed below.
- Do you have a happy memory of Easter when growing up, if so what is it?
- What’s your favorite Easter basket treat?
- What do you like most about Spring?
- What is the thing you usually do on that first really warm Spring day?
- Do you ever take a spring break vacation and if so, where to?
- Do you ever go to church on Easter and if so, which one?
- Speaking of church, what is your favorite part of a service if you go to one?
- And speaking of religion, is their a specific one you feel most called to or a specific faith you have?
- What is your biggest concern with religion today?
- What is your most favorite thing to plant in a garden?
And as always, one more for good measure:
- What is one thing you want to do this Spring that you didn’t do last Spring?
My answers:
- Waking up Easter morning and seeing bunny prints outside my bedroom door and following them all around the house until I found a huge basket filled with lots of goodies.
- Those little chocolate rabbit eggs that almost look like rabbit pellets wrapped up in tinfoil.
- Watching the flowers bloom on trees and especially from the bulbs in the ground.
- Sit outside in shorts and without my shirt on and feel the sun’s warmth on my body.
- Actually mine usually comes at the end of winter just before spring and it’s usually to the Caribbean somewhere.
- Currently, I haven’t been going to church in a good while. At some point, I’d like to go to the Unity Church here in Toledo though and would be going there for their service if I was a regular attendee.
- As a kid, it was the bell choir that my Mom played in. I love the sound they make in a church hall.
- I grew up Christian, then distanced myself from it for awhile and practiced Buddhism. Now I follow the trinity again but with Buddhist practices tied in.
- That it governs too much of our society, notably how too many still claim that God hates gay people because of what’s said in the Bible.
- Impatience flowers in the shade, as I love to watch them grow tall and spread out.
- Go hiking somewhere.
Peace, love, light, and joy,
Andrew Arthur Dawson
