The prompts are so delicious I wish I had the time to address them one by one. However, sometimes I can't think of something worthy, just silly stuff, and yes, I do silly stuff occasionally and enjoy reading it as well. Today I don't have my "silly" hat on, so I researched the word "Wall." Interesting word (wall) a word that takes you through various paths. During my exploring around I found this interesting quote that reminds me of today's politics, and yet at the same time, it was religious, at least to me! RDP Tuesday asks today what we save? I like to save exciting quotes; this one below is a saver for me by Haruki Murakami, a Japanese author. He was born in 1949; there is much to read about him on the Internet; and below is one of his quotes I chose to SAVE AND post for the "Weekly Prompts Weekend challenge." ************
“If there is a hard, high wall and an egg that breaks against it, no matter how right the wall or how wrong the egg, I will stand on the side of the egg. Why? Because each of us is an egg, a unique soul enclosed in a fragile egg. Each of us is confronting a high wall. The high wall is the system which forces us to do the things we would not ordinarily see fit to do as individuals . . . We are all human beings, individuals, fragile eggs. We have no hope against the wall: it’s too high, too dark, too cold. To fight the wall, we must join our souls together for warmth, strength. We must not let the system control us — create who we are. It is we who created the system. (Jerusalem Prize acceptance speech, JERUSALEM POST, Feb. 15, 2009)”
― Haruki Murakami
