The Paradox of the Prankster by Prank

Back in the late Winter in 2006 I met someone named Tiane D at the Dog House in Atlanta. Tiane has her own blog but it has been cleared out of all posts last time I checked. She was very special I thought, she reminded me way too much of my cousins at times and that haunted me for some reason. So I figured I would converse with Tiane to gain insight and below are some of the things we discussed in the public comments section of her blog. It gets better as it goes and Biggie T pops up too. I don't know why but this makes me laugh a lot!

Tiane, if you are out there I do hope you are having a fine time.

I like the way you think about stuff, Tiane.

And Bick don't really think those hieroglyphics are like ancient or something now does he? You cleared up that little matter I trust? I gotta say I hate when that happens but what you gonna do?

Best wishes,
Prank

Well thank you for the comment and the visit PrairePrankster! Well Bick is a child but I do homeschool him so he won't get the influence of those 'bad' kids, altho I did teach him to watch out for those evil hieroglyphics, I think we DO need to review. I do want people to realize how smart my kids really are.

Tiane D,

Me O My O!

Why you sure do lead a very full life and I thank you for taking some of your very precious time to share you insight with us all.

We are all blessed. Verily.

Best wishes to you and your fine Family,
Prank

Oh Prankster!

Thank you, I do appreciate your visit so. I know! My friends ask me how I can stay such a little busy body. I think it just sends them into shock at times that I can keep up my strength. They aren't jealous tho. Such dears. Of course I must share with y'all. I can't think of only me, and take away a blessing? I would be ashamed. Bless your heart!

Well, Tiane, if you ask me, thinking is over rated. So many think but never do because all they do is think. You seem to know to do, therefore you do not need thought. It is a cosmic link to God thing I do believe. It is as if you were touched, so to speak. By God.

And when God touches One then One must speak the Truth. As you speak yours.

At least that's the way I see it.

It's as if a Grand Fountain of God's Grace poured forth the Wisdom of the Ages as you lead us through Life.

Bless you and your Fine Family,
Prank

I am so pleased you dropped by Prank!

I try to give guidance where I can. It's the least I can do. Some just talk and talk don't they? You know you aren't the first person to say that thinking is over rated at least where it applies to me. Thank you for the confirmation that I am 'touched by God'. Several other dear people say they can see it and have told me that also, but so many resist me for some reason! Bless your heart dear and keep up your good work too!

Why thank you kindly for very nice words, Tiane. I feel blessed and touched that you would respond to my comment.

For my Family has many fine Women who remind me much of you. Gracious and upstanding members of the community like you are. Giving your thoughts and wisdom freely, a gift it is, to all who can benefit from your advice and counsel.

I sense you are the type of person who shares your gift not just with Family but are willing to share it with all who are fortunate to be anywhere close by. So it does my Heart good to know that I can visit your blog and receive the wisdom similar to that of those Fine Women in my Family who now live thousands and thousands of miles away from me. A blessing it is to know that no matter how far away I go, no matter how many other issues I focus on, you bring their voices back into my Head as clear as a Bell. A blessing it is. Assuredly.

May you have Lovely Day,
Prank

Oh Prank!

I am so glad to know that you also have fine examples of good women in your family! It IS too bad that you are so many many miles apart. As is MY family! You know, that doesn't deter me one bit tho, I call as often as I can. I know they so enjoy my calls. Everyone says they would LOVE to talk more but they are just so busy and they often miss my calls. Something about their answer machine thingy not working. I was so happy to be able to bless you. No matter where you go, the voices of reason are there. What a comforting thought! See you in church tomorrow! I will be so busy there!

Sister, I am glad to hear you had a nice outing at the flea market. You can be realy frugal...I know that is an ugly word...but we do what can...and find almost full bottles of Skin So Soft and other Avon products at smart savings. At the one over in the next county, a man sells pork rinds right off the pig. Don't reach in the boiler, though and try to get a free sample. We spent most of the night a few saturdays back at Grady Hospital. Marc can be a handful.

Why that Hobo tale sure takes me back, Tiane.

Hmmm, seems like I heard this before, a vision, yes...deja vu. My, must be the vapors or change in air pressure we have in these Rocky Mountain, Tiane.

My loving Parents often left me at Hobo camps when I was a child. It was fun, a challenge to my young mind it was, to find my way back Home after a few days time. Once it took me 10 days.

I knew my Daddy was giving his eldest Son the benefit of his Wisdom, as you do so unselfishlessly, so that I could find my way in this Wonderful Creation we call Earth. To have the confidence, as a Man must have, that I could cook stew in a tin can and never found the lack of plumbing or dental hygeine to be any sort of a problem.

And Bick and his Swords, Me O My O, that sure brings me a smile.

Why my Daddy let me and my school friends play with our Swords at our Home. We could and did play with our Swords often. So proud we were as we would march around the House showing our mighty Swords to any and all who had the gift of Sight.

When my Mama asked us to stop with the Swords and such, my Daddy told us to go play with our knives. They thought that Darwin did have one good idea, you got to prune the herd every now and then or the herd gets weak. Don't get me wrong, they be not them "evolutionist types" or anything like that, Tiane. But when good sense makes good sense, then God will allow us to see that and recognize it even if those who say those types of truth shall burn in deepest Hell.

Well, shoot, I am getting a bit wound up here but it's always a pleasure to read your Divine "touched" thoughts and know the voices that God sent me away from clear over to the other of Continent can now be found here. A touch of Grace and Good Good Sense. Indeed.

Bless you and your Fine Family,
Prank

Biggie T!

So glad to hear from y'all. Why thank you for the compliment, I really do try to be frugal. I do stay close to home so had not seen the flea market before. Boy was that a surprise! Those 'unclean' women about did me in! I totally missed the almost full bottles of Skin So Soft. I could have used some too! I have to wear turtlenecks when I go out, so people don't see my turkey neck! They do compliment me on how young I look tho. Thanks for the tip on the pork rinds! I would have done the very thing Marc did. That poor dear, hey we will do almost anything for a bargain won't we?

When we had lots of money I got that EXPENSIVE nativity set from Avon. I sure hope I never break a piece as I could not afford to replace one now!

Hello Prank!

You are so special. You get wound up all you want. I do so enjoy those loving family stories you shared. I hope you gave the Lord thanks that He sent me with Divine thoughts to share with you. Even though you are so far from family, it's like they are right HERE with you! Isn't that just wonderful the way that works! Sounds like Daddy knew what he was doing, surely even tho those who say those types of truth shall burn in deepest Hell, I agree! When it makes sense, out it must go!

A Gracious Good Evening To You, Tiane!

I was chuckling today after your sweet reminisce about Barren and her phone.

Why I was speaking with my Mama on the cell phone earlier after the Morning Meditations with God. It was here birthday this week and I was sure to get her a lovely gift and card like any good Son would do. And like what befell your Lovely Barren with you, my cell phone battery went dead and cut Mama off in mid-sentence too.

As I am sure you know, those phone battery companies say the phone batteries can recharge in a hour or two. May the Good Lord strike me down if I do not speak the truth, Tiane, but my phone sometimes takes days to charge. It usually takes a few days of charging that cell phone enough to handle a long distance call from my Mama. Seems like the more she talks the faster my battery loses all that electricty and the dang phone goes out. Sorry for the rough language, Tiane, I just get so upset when that happens as I am sure you can imagine. So I clearly visualize the sorrow your Barren feels when she loses the Sweet Melodic Voice of Wisdom from her Mama as her phone cuts out. For these Precious Gifts you share have few equals, and being her Mama you, of course, should guide her and move her in the right direction. The path you know to be correct. Despite her protests, she knows you are right.

For you offer a path that learns true wisdom from a song, not from all that thinking or studying. No Ma'am, for you understand that your insight comes from a place that is greater than thought, greater than logic, why it's like the Voice of Angels speaking the Truth to all whose Hearts are open. I can tell that you help so many that they have little need to ever cross your path again once they have experienced the Blessing. I would suppose that they may cross to the other side of the street if they see you coming so that you can Bless others who have not yet benefited from your kind words and deeds. That I believe is your mission, Tiane, and you do not have to think about it, you just do it.

Why my how the time flies. Are you sure you did not adopt Barren too? You seem like such a young and vibrant woman to be a Grandmother, you must have good genes I suppose but your picture is quite remarkable, younger than yesterday.

May Bim be feeling strong and fit as he toils mightily for his Fine Family,

You are such a dear Prankster!

I almost didn't get back here, I have been so busy helping others! It truly is good to hear that you talk to your mama whenever you are able! I don't think I've met such a thoughtful young man with the exception of our Bon. He is definately a mama's boy! I am so relieved that you clued me in on the batteries for the phones. I was beginning to think that my family was actuaully avoiding me! I'm so silly that way sometimes. I hope you were able to get back to your mama. I don't talk to my mother, I just cannot listen to her put my Bim down. I am such a positive person, I sure didn't get it from HER!

I will forgive your rough language dear Prankster since we have SO very much in common. I know you just are so blessed to have family like me and although they are far away, that I can always be nearby to remind you. Well. Barren never listened to me but I think she is beginning to understand, as now she is beginning to say YES mother, YES mother! when I advise her. I am very generous with wisdom for my children and I think they are beginning to appreciate that. You are so right again, I don't even have to think, wisdom just springs forth from my heart. Yes I believe it is my call and I am faithful in it. I rarely misss a day that I can share SOME insight. People tell me ALL the time how young I do look every time I ask so it has been confirmed that I DO look young for my years. Thank you for noticing.

Tiane D., you sure do tell it like it is.

Why I did talk to God a lot since I first beheld your stirring revelatory words and insights a few weeks back. I thank you for asking me if I had talked to God and thanked Him after "meeting" you on this here Internet in one of your previous kindly replies.

I shared with God the Grand Wonder and Awe in my Heart that after being away from "Home" for so long, how on this Green Earth did a "Lost Voice of Mercy and Grace" call out to me over this Internet? I sat and talked with God for many, many hours on this, Tiane. I asked God how can those voices long deeply buried and who were long thought "walking in Paradise" somehow resurrect and come for your seemingly touched and otherworldly mind? Why God, did you even bring me to this Wondrous Divine Touched Voice, this Voice of Insight, this Voice that does merely because she can do? Doing what you were born to do, Tiane, to do and never think for one moment. Why thought would get in the way of all that you so graciously share and that would never do. Nope.

You know I had a 3rd cousin named Scabie too. Just like that Sweet Baby you are taking care of in your special way. That child is truly Blessed every second being in your Saintly Glow, Tiane. As is your Bick.

Anyway, my Cousin Scabie used to come over and my Mama would sit with her at the House. Scabie's Ma, my Dear Auntie Kat, well, she was a working girl. She did not have much time for her Scabie it seems. Oh that Kat would come by when she could and play with her Scabie some. Katty had her struggles as many do and sometimes the best we can do is pray for them or hope someone like you can enter their life and make a difference as I am sure you do to anyone you come in contact with, Tiane.

So now my Friends and I would be marching around the House showing off and playing with our Swords as we liked to do. And our Cute Little Cousin offered to play with our Mighty Swords. Well, we showed her how to handle our Swords, to maintain the proper grip and such so no one gets hurt. So that our Sweet Cousin could be a Master of the Sword, even though she had no Sword of her own. Sometimes that Silly Scabie calls me from North Carolina and talks about my Sword, over the phone, Tiane, and it seems that my darn cell battery just about explodes.

Maybe Blott or Barren can find some of those newer cell phone batteries at that Best Buy and you can direct your Family to get the right battery for the job. I hear they came out with some new ones that are a little better. It just pains me so very deeply to think that your Family may miss your keen insight and guidance just when they might need it the most.

Well, I must be getting on now but I savor the moments, Tiane.

God Bless You and Your Fine Family,
Prank

Prankster,

I can see that sharing myself has brought you so much joy, Isn't that neat! I bet you were just thinking, God.... that was so good of you to bring back a voice from my past to remind me of my wonderful memories!

It is true, I just do what I was meant to. But I am not a Calvinist! I get so mad at THOSE people. They will argue with me to no end! I cannot enjoy them throwing scripture at me. I try to compliment them and they just ignore that I am so helpless and petite! I have tried tears, tantrums and insults all to no avail. My blog is my safe haven tho. Did you know it is considered rude to dispute a blog? I learned that early and can say anything I want without them rebuking me! LOLOL

I am so relieved that someone thinks I am a good sitter. I do get concerned that they may think I'm an old meanie. I do love children as you can see. Besides it's a good reason NOT to go get a real job. I have worked outside the home but how can I teach those ladies to be submissive and do what they are told if I am working! I really think Bim would hate it if I had to get a job. I am not asking tho. Well my Blot and Barren both said they are all out of batteries so I will have to be patient. It could be weeks before they get any more!
