tagged W

Every Tuesday, step by step, I’m walking with my readers from A to Z, last week we had “V” (visit tagged V), so this week we have “W” – I’m sure you’ll find a story or a short reflection tagged with “W”! Feel free to add in the comments below the link to your personal interpretation of the letter “W”!!! Myself I’ll feature “W” for discussing “WASTING TIME”:

I’ll not know what to play with guitar and kazoo next week, for the letter X, but I beg your pardon, I know which ballad to play for the letter “W”: “When I get older, losing my hair …”

  1. Hi Frizz, I love how you ‘waste’ time in these beautiful black and white photographs. My contribution this week is quite close to you: W is for Wall of Berlin. 🙂

    • hi Myra,
      “War is what happens
      when language fails.”

      … is it YOU on the last picture? 🙂
      the photo with the balloon is very good!
      You maybe remember:
      my mother lived behind the wall
      in the Eastern part of Germany …

  6. Yes, I’d agree with Marina: time well spent on personal nourishment, Frizz. Meanwhile, I have a post with lots of W tags: ‘Of wolf farts, windmills and the Wenlock Olympics’. For those who want to know what wolf farts are you can find out at: http://wp.me/pKVAM-2u

  11. If I had a word with W to chose, it would be Window ( http://icezine.wordpress.com/2012/12/20/week-51-windows/ ) because that’s what I have in front of me most of the time. Strange object… It separates us from the outside, another world, and it shows you so many things. Sometimes it’s a mirror, sometimes it’s dark. Sometimes it’s wide open, so wide you don’t know why there’s a window. Sometimes it’s always closed and you want a wall.
    My picture shows another type of windows, to look at the sea or at the city the boat arrived.

    • I like the two dolphin photos
      and the quote
      “Laughter is the sun
      that drives winter
      from the human face.”
      Victor Hugo
      so I know some winter people
      – but summer people as well…
      P.S.:
      dolphins always seem to smile!

    Frizz, these are wonderful ways to “Pause”..to play your guitar, take drives through your hometown, and take leisurely naps with your grandson, which are beautifully pictured by Frizztext as “WASTING TIME” 🙂

  27. These are “worthwhile” ways of wasting time. The best! They are productive and therapeutic. (Hmmm…”productively wasting time”…an oxymoron?)
