Day 3942: Question Diva

Yesterday, when I asked a question on Twitter (Question: Why change a well-established and friendly brand name like Twitter to something like “X”?), somebody called me “Question Diva.”

.

I like the title “Question Diva” because, indeed, I have lots of questions, including

  • Why is there so much inhumanity in the world?
  • What can I do about it?
  • How do people stay sane amid all the insanity?
  • How can we work together to save ourselves?

.

Last night, Question Diva talked to her show biz coach about how difficult it was to ask questions when she suspected the answer would be “no.” So we role-played my asking an amazing musician to play with me on my album of original songs, with my coach responding both positively and negatively. Question Diva now feels better equipped to ask those kinds of questions.

Question Diva would now like to ask you to look at her other images for today.

.

Here and now, Question Diva has these questions;

Why was it so difficult for me to upload those images into this blog post?

How are you going to celebrate this precious day?

Will chocolate cupcakes be involved?

What will I find on YouTube when I search for “question diva”?

.

Question Diva thanks everyone who helps her ask questions every day, including YOU!

Day 2702: Who counts?

In yesterday’s blog post, I asked the question “Who’s counting?” twice.

Today, as I am looking at others counting the horrific numbers of dead in the United States and around the world,  I’m asking, “Who counts?”

I don’t know how people in power would answer that question, but I do know how the people I love, respect, and count on would answer it.

Everybody counts.

Who counts in the phots I took yesterday?

Who counts on love?  I do.

When I search YouTube for “Who Counts”,  I find this:

I count on you to watch that video and I count on you to vote.

Thanks to everybody who counts, including YOU.
