I was born on a day of no consequence. No war, no beginning or ending of war. No natural disasters, no earthquakes, no storms, no big waves. No swarms of locust, no large dust clouds, no floods, just another day.

It was as if People, Earth and even the Universe were waiting. Everyone on edge, listening for that hopeful sound. Waiting on the first breath so that they might remember to breath.

No wailing scream was heard. I entered the world almost soundlessly, a simple sigh of a first breath, then comfortable silence. Content to let the world be.

It was fun to do, I need to practice writing, so i thought why the same ole same ole. I tried to do the same for part 2. I think I might have gotten a few things right about her.

Soundlessly, but was it painlessly? :)

Well, I am sure it wasn't for everyone involved, but for me, since I have a memory like steel trap lined in wax paper, I would say, yes, it was all smooth sailing,

It seems nothing momentous occured that day...Except your arrival; It must have been enough. 🙂

Content is a condition many do not feel these days so I always like to hear that people feel it...Far too many seeking outwardly and never feeling content when it lies within and isn't difficult to find if one looks a little more closely.

I agree there does not seem to be very many content people, it is like that is a bad word in today's society. "Yes he seems content, but is his being content a quality content? he could be faking how content he really is, and his apparent content, could actually be of a low quality type due to various internal self reasoning".

I like the word content. More people should try being content, it really is not a bad thing.

!ENGAGE 50 back at ya, cause I like being content, and seeing all kinds of content.

Lol...We're a couple content dudes by the sounds of it.

I agree with you that in society now it seems that to be content is seen as a weakness, unambitious maybe. I disagree. I have great drive and vision, great motivation...And yet I'm content in many areas as that contentment brings happiness and fulfilment. I may not be explaining myself well though.

An example comes to mind of the discontent people have with the old model iPhone...They seek the new one thinking they will be happy and content...And they are for a little while...Until the new model comes out a few months later...Then that contentment turns into disappointment that they have an old model. Typical consumerism. It's similar in many other areas.

Conversely, find contentment and all of a sudden things seem brighter and more easily dealt with. I'm pleased to be in the latter group, the content group, in most aspects of life...And I'm not one to place my feeling of self-value on material things...That helps a lot.

Thanks for the ENGAGE. :)

I think only content people would understand. Right now I am feeling pretty content, I had a nice day, got the oil changed finally, had a nice dinner out, and now I just finished a nice big piece of next day, cold homemade simple apple pie. No cheese, no butter tabs, just flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, good old fashioned lard, and some cold water. It is work to make it, but man oh man is it worth it after it is done. Hot apple pie on the baking day, and then the next day cold piece, My stomach is pretty dang content about now. It is a good thing I only make them every now and then.

Now I'm discontent because I'm not mungin' on my own homemade apple-pie! I blame you for my discontent. Lol.

Anyway, gotta go...Meeting with the Director in five minutes to deliver my end of financial year presentation...I may be smiling later...But maybe they'll dick me...And I'll really need some cake to make me feel better then! Lol.

Task 2


Times were hard, life was a struggle, and yet she pushed onward and forward. Ever moving forward, helping those who needed it, even if they did not see they needed help. Fun, life around her seemed to be fun for those that were fortunate enough to know her in person.

Not just a woman, but a real Lady, one of those you only read about in historical biographies. I have never met her in person. The worries of the people, and indeed the world seem distant when she is in a room, real or online.

Sometimes I find the bright side a bit daunting, but it is better than looking at the other end of the spectrum.

What a good write up. I am pretty darn sure I entered the world kicking and screaming. I darn sure did plenty of both that I can remember :)

The end is the same though isn't it? I too am content...possibly even fat and happy.

I think most of us reach contentment at some point in our lives. I do feel sorry for those that approach older age who are not content, but it is never to late to learn.
