The Grandinite Dream Meme
I’m starting a new meme. No word on whether it will catch on. You never know unless you try, right? This meme is just that: an idea. So here it goes.
The theme: Answer the following questions as best you can. You may need to think about them for an hour, a day, a week. They are not easy for everyone to answer.
This idea came to me in a dream.
If you pick it up, link to this post so I can track it in the odd event that it does catch on.
If you aren’t tagged and just want to write some answers, send your answers to: aaron.braaten[at]gmail[dot]com, post them as comments below or just write a blog entry and claim you were tagged. If you link me, I can see how the meme evolves.
Please and thank you.
The questions (for your cut & paste convenience – if you pick up this meme please provide others with the same convenience):
1. If money were no object, what would you be doing with your life?
2. Money is just that – an object, so why aren’t you doing it?
3. What’s better: horses or cows?
4. What do you think the secret to happiness is?
5. When was the last time you had a dream that you either remember well or did not want to awake from? Can you share a bit?
6. When you were a little kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?
7. Complete this statement: Love is . . .
8. Can you tell a good story? (write one!)
9. Can you remember your last daydream? What was it about?
10. If you were to thank someone today, who would you thank?
My answers:
1. If money were no object, what would you be doing with your life?
I would be fishing, reading and writing.
2. Money is just that – an object, so why aren’t you doing it?
Because I need more drive and motivation.
3. What’s better: horses or cows?
Horses. Both can plow a field. Both can pull a cart. Cows are better eating. Horses are better though.
4. What do you think the secret to happiness is?
Gratitude.
5. When was the last time you had a dream that you either remember well or did not want to awake from? Can you share a bit?
I can’t remember right now, but I know it was a good one.
6. When you were a little kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?
Like Lewis & Clark.
7. Complete this statement: Love is . . .
God in action.
8. Can you tell a good story? (write one!)
Once upon a time there was a prince. He asked the princess to marry him. She said no. He lived happily ever after. (just kidding).
9. Can you remember your last daydream? What was it about?
I was dayreaming how to change question number 9.
10. If you were to thank someone today, who would you thank?
My parents. Mom, for giving me these beautiful blue eyes and Dad for my suave charms. No, for staying together through thick and thin.
