It’s a Hard Knock Life…

Who was your most influential teacher? Why?

Life itself was my most influential teacher! Why? Because it kicked my can around town for so many of my growing up years, that’s why! I’ve yet to meet an actual earth creature that truly influenced me, more than me just trying to navigate a world that has no safety net for the lost ones!

Don’t get me wrong, as there were plenty of people in and around my life to influence me, to an extent. Since most of them were very negative influences, as well as being very unhealthy and/or cruel, I will go as far as to say, they get some of the credit for how I got here… I just don’t think that it’s fair to give them the whole price tag for how I turned out.

God alone is my only true lifelong influence… otherwise, I wouldn’t be here writing this prompt answer today!

With that being said, I’m off to continue my week of self-imposed vacation… ta ta for now…

You didn’t think that I would forget your cookies…

I took a bite out of the one in front, sorry…

Whispers…

Well, I have this one friend. This friend has been there for me since forever I think, lol. Funny thing is, if you ask me who it is, I must first describe them. Does anyone have that one friend that always seems to be there when they need them…always the one to call and make us smile after a really rough day…always quietly beside us when we thought we were going to have to stand alone for something we believed in, that failed epically. I know that you are waiting for me to say God, and in a way you are right, but I am actually aiming at an angle if you can follow me…

God has used many people, throughout the years, to teach and influence me. Though not all of these people have been good, I am grateful for the learning. I wrote before about compliments, and I guess I feel the same for influences. I believe that he moves through us all to connect us to one another, so even when I may be looking at a person that has influenced me, it’s like I see God in the background whispering His will for me, and my hope is that He will send His Whispering through me, to anyone I may encounter along my journey. Maybe, something good or helpful I do someday, will be the influence that someone desperately needed. I know that if it is important for me to know about, then God will fill me in when I get home.
