Kisses and the weather
*Right*You have the ability to make people fall in love with you, but only after you kiss them/ What creative way are you going to get that kiss that doesn't make you sound like a crazed fanatic? Knowing you have this power, would you kiss more than one person?(BCoFs)

What a delightful prompt! I think falling in love is the best. It makes people happy. All the stuff that comes after it can make it difficult but the actual state of falling in love is great. So I would kiss as many as possible, spreading joy and happiness around the world. In this day and age I would say I attach a kiss to my mail, or maybe attach it to a trinket here at WdC *Rolling*. I think I would blow kisses to people, very gentle so they first won’t notice it.



*Right*Prompt: Red skies at night, a sailor's delight. Red skies in the morning, sailors take warning. How does this apply to your life?(BC)

Shakespeare knew. He said something similar in his play, Venus and Adonis. “Like a red morn that ever yet betokened, Wreck to the seaman, tempest to the field, Sorrow to the shepherds, woe unto the birds, Gusts and foul flaws to herdmen and to herds.”

In the Bible, (Matthew XVI: 2-3,) Jesus said, “When in evening, ye say, it will be fair weather: For the sky is red. And in the morning, it will be foul weather today; for the sky is red and lowering.”

Weather lore has been around since people needed to predict the weather and plan their activities. Sailors and farmers relied on it to navigate ships and plant crops. https://www.loc.gov/rr/scitech/mysteries/weather-sailor.html

To apply this to my own life is more difficult. I love red skies no matter what time. I think looking at the skies for warning is not my thing. I am always in awe looking at the skies, since it is such a humbling experience, and it makes me feel small and part of a greater scheme of things. Skies can be so beautiful it will take your breath away: during the day with the clouds and the sun, during the night with the stars and the moon. It also fills me with wonder and prompts me into thinking about what we are doing here on earth, what our function in life is and if there is a greater being such as a God looking after us. The Universe is there through the skies.
