Some time ago I made friends with a clever, artsy fellow named Scott Semester. Always being a lover of music and dance although neither are skills I possess I gladly followed him on Twitter. He also has a grand sense of humor.
He is doing NOVEMBER TO MEMEMBER: 30 Days of Truth which is a grand idea, that he got from Kelsey, who got it from Sonya, who got it from Dee, who got it from an unknown source. Being a researcher, I figured it would be easy to find the start of this Meme… perhaps I can with more time. I found dozens of blogs all citing the person they got it from, but not knowing where the “30 Days of Truth” started. So this is truth I am accepting (at least for now.)
Here are the prompts for the 30 days. Hopefully I will stick with this list. Of course, since this is more personal, I will write here rather than on my regular site. Although some subjects may overlap onto the other blog.
Day 01 → Something you hate about yourself.
Day 02 → Something you love about yourself.
Day 03 → Something you have to forgive yourself for.
Day 04 → Something you have to forgive someone for.
Day 05 → Something you hope to do in your life.
Day 06 → Something you hope you never have to do.
Day 07 → Someone who has made your life worth living for.
Day 08 → Someone who made your life hell, or treated you like [crap].
Day 09 → Someone you didn’t want to let go, but just drifted.
Day 10 → Someone you need to let go, or wish you didn’t know.
Day 11 → Something people seem to compliment you the most on.
Day 12 → Something you never get compliments on.
Day 13 → A band or artist that has gotten you through some tough days. (write a letter.)
Day 14 → A hero that has let you down. (letter)
Day 15 → Something or someone you couldn’t live without, because you’ve tried living without it. (same as 16 so skipped, also out of order with 14, mi culpa)
Day 16 → Someone or something you definitely could live without.
Day 17 → A book you’ve read that changed your views on something.
Day 18 → Your views on gay marriage.
Day 19 → What do you think of religion? Or what do you think of politics?
Day 20 → Your views on drugs and alcohol.
Day 21 → (scenario) Your best friend is in a car accident and you two got into a fight an hour before. What do you do?
Day 22 → Something you wish you hadn’t done in your life.
Day 23 → Something you wish you had done in your life.
Day 24 → Make a playlist to someone, and explain why you chose all the songs. (Just post the titles and artists and letter)
Day 25 → The reason you believe you’re still alive today.
Day 26 → Have you ever thought about giving up on life? If so, when and why?
Day 27 → What’s the best thing going for you right now?
Day 28 → What if you were pregnant or got someone pregnant, what would you do?
Day 29 → Something you hope to change about yourself. And why.
Day 30 → A letter to yourself, tell yourself EVERYTHING you love about yourself.
Live, Truth, or Dare,
