#F4TFriday #110 ~ Taboo |
There was quite a lot of thinking out of the box for last weeks prompt of Face Value. Many thanks to all who joined in. Floss and I really want to make this meme all about you guys, and what you want to write about. Please get in touch with prompt ideas.
#109 Spotlight Post
A few
weeks ago PJAWoode chose our very popular prompt of Selfies. Now he
is back to pick the spotlight post for us.
I was
really happy to get involved with F4tFriday again. The prompt of Face Value from Posy struck
a chord with many. Indeed her own post was very touching – particularly the comment that blogging makes her proud.
Spotlight #109 |
For some,
masks are essential and part of their very essence. For others they
are more problematic. The open exchange of thoughts, feelings and
insights has been very humbling.
My
standout spotlight post is from Submissy. Her post is wonderfully
profound and really resonated with me. She says...
I am
not sure you can ever really feel that you know the true make up of
another person, even though you can know and appreciate their value
to you. We all have hidden parts and various masks that we adorn in
order to do what we need or want to do. Read More...
I would
also like to give an honourable mention to Steeled Snake Charmer.
Yes,
maybe I could be “all” of me all of the time. But, I really feel
authentic in myself even when covering up parts of my life. I don’t
lie, but I don’t share. These are private parts of me that I choose
to share with the right people.
Prompt #110 Taboo
When
looking for a description of taboo for this prompt I found many quite
long winded similar explanations. That is because Taboo means
different things to different people. Something
considered taboo may be an activity or discussion that your society,
culture or moral upbringing deems as off limits for one reason or
another. Risque. A no-no. Remember the questions are just a guide.
May asks... |
Share with us an act or talk you have
had taken part in that may be considered Taboo by some people you know.
How did it make you feel. Have you
told or written about it?
Remember what is taboo for one person may not be
considered that way for another. For example, take a look at what Floss says below.
Floss Says...
I asked Floss if anyone she has known in her life ever admitted to being involved in something that they thought was Taboo.
Growing
up my own family history was taboo, my paternal grandfather was a
very taboo subject & rightly so, as he was a psychopathic human
being. I suspect with that situation as my benchmark for taboo, there
isn't a lot else in the world that surprises me.
Late to the party but very welcome
