Six-Sentence-Sunday 6/17

http://sixsunday.com/


Six Sentence Sunday - that's my funday! Last week I didn't have much time to write, read and comment, but this Sunday it's back to the ol' blog'n'hop. I'm pretty much drawing a blank today - so I'm doing something I have never ever done before on a SiSeSu - this weekend, it's oneliners, six of them to be precise. Let me explain: These are supposed to be fun, and actually, a bit of a mockery of wise sayings - like Yoda, but absurd, and on acid. Let's see, how you like them.



I don't think I am a time traveller, but who knows, we may have met before.


Who ever tried to build a castle in the clouds knows that throwing sand in the air doesn't help the cause one bit.

 

My, how radiant the power plant glistens in the sunlight.

 

Heaven knows but only hell will tell. 

 

It's one soup at a time, my grandmother used to say.


Slow and steady wins the race, gross and fatty punches face.

    Very funny! I like the castles in the clouds one. Yep, sand would ruin it every time.

      Thank you, Cherie and I think you're right! Sitting at the beach would be especially tiresome..

    Brilliant. I particularly love the second one. I can't even begin to imagine a situation when the fifth one would be relevant, but it would be awesome!

      You made me laugh there :) I guess I must have been inspired by the "too many cooks spoil something" saying. Actually, my grandma never shared any wisdom about soup or meat, and come to think of it, not even salad.

    I'm glad to have come to your blog, Daniela. I enjoy your philosophies in your "about me" section very much, especially the last bit about about "intimate time with me, my brain and a white sheet of paper". That's very beautiful.

    I'm partial to the second line/quote; a whole story could come out of that one. ;) and that last one just makes me laugh so hard I almost rolled out of my chair.

    Thank you for visiting my blog and your comment. If not for it, I wouldn't have found your page here and this will definitely be a favorite place for me to visit, like a library with a huge picture window and a hot chocolate in hand. ;)

      Well, thank you, kind Sir :) It's great, the opportunities we Bloggers have to meet like-minded spirits on Sunday's six. Makes me so happy! I'm already dreading January - when I think about the last SSS!

      P.S. I bookmarked your blog (and stalked you on Facebook) Whoops, that came out loud. Anyways, since you are a Dragon Age playing, Scrubs loving person, same as me, why are we not friends already?! :)

      Since you are a Skyrim playing, cuddly kitten loving person, (I have a cat that looks just like yours, her name is Addyson) why we are not friends already is a good question. ;)

      The last days of SSS saddens me as well. I've met so many great, life long, writing friends through that project. SSS may go, but the friendships will last long after.

      Your philosophy struck me so deeply because it reminded me of a certain philosophy of Walt Whitman, that writing is an intimate connection between the writer's mind and the reader's mind through the words on the page. The notion of finding that intimacy with my own mind, as you say, is facinating.

      Writing makes me feel so giddy, like a small boy eager to rush out and make tracks in the freshly fallen snow of a blank page. ;)

      It is wonderful to meet you Daniela, and please "stalk" my pages all you wish ... I'll never tell. ;)

    Nice SSS, Dana! My favorite is "My, how radiant the power plant glistens in the sunlight." :-)

    This was a nice change-up. :-)

      Thank you Teresa! I always liked the ambiguity of the word "radiant", I don't know why that is. There is a similar thing going on with me and the German word "reizend" - it means charming as well as irritant (like as a risk phrase on cleaning supplies). Anyways, I like your pick :)
