Filthy is kind of like a onomatopoeia, a word that sounds like itself. Being filthy is a byproduct of dirty work of various kinds. It also means doing something guilty that makes you feel filthy on the inside. I can remember times when being filthy meant I was helping others do some heavy lifting which was a good thing. Then there is being filthy rich where you are wealthy. Being filthy means getting dirty in a lot of ways. So I suppose being filthy can be a negative or positive thing depending on what you are doing.

Something About What Makes A Blogger, Numbers Don’t Tell The Whole Story #wordpressdotcom
Blogging is a noun and a verb. It is something you do and is something you are. Your number of followers do not determine your value as a blogger because I think the quality of your connections is what matters most. Some bloggers have a large following while others have a few friends and neighbors tagging along. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t have thousands of people visiting daily. A blog that comes from the heart will tell a great story and will bring people along organically. Don’t worry about your stats especially if you are an amateur. It’s good to celebrate milestones of people following but don’t get hung up on that. Every blog has a place in cyberspace.
No two bloggers are exactly alike. Their mission and purpose are determined by the writer and curator. I think individuality matters. Be yourself within your blog and create posts in your own way. Be sure your blog looks alive and tells the reader something about yourself.
As a person who runs a personal blog I am not out to be wildly popular but to share my message with all who will hear it and will connect with me. Being happy with what you have and be proud of your blog.
The one thing I always say is keep on blogging!

Music Monday – The Golden Girls Theme Song – Thank You For Being A Friend
The Golden Girls was a TV situation comedy that ran 1985-1992 on NBC Television. It was about the life adventures of four older women living in a condo in south Florida. For many it holds a special place in their hearts, including mine. So this is a little different for Music Monday a TV theme song…it won’t be the last time either.
Thank you for being a friend, yeah you!
Facebook Break Update
I am into day 3 of my Facebook break and it seems to be going well. When you have multiple gadgets you have to log out of Facebook on each of them which can be a pain. The only thing I am connected to there is FB Messenger which I do use to PM friends who I don’t have other ways of doing so.
To tell you the truth, I am not missing it as much as I thought I might. As far as online connections WordPress.com, Twitter, Instagram and to a much lesser extent Tumblr. There are other things that will keep me busy. Facebook can be a bit of a time suck and I am realizing that now. Yes I am tempted to go back, who wouldn’t be. After this election season everyone needs a break. I think keeping out of it is a good thing for personal reasons. We shall see how long it lasts. My goal is one day at a time with a thought of going back on maybe after Thanksgiving.
Daily Prompt: Lofty
Everyone has some sort of goal in life. For some they are very lofty, very ambitious. To have that sort of idea requires lots of work, dedication, persistence and perspiration. A lofty goal can also be one that is unattainable and unrealistic but there are people who are working to make their dreams come true.
Then there are people who are of a status that puts them in their minds above everyone else. They treat people as less than and have a superiority complex.
Great speakers are gifted in their oratory and eloquence as they inspire people to ascend to new heights and to be something better. They can challenge people to rise up to a challenge and to achieve something great.
