Welcome back to another Sunday Poser

This week my question is;

Do you like using emojis in your post, or texts?

At first, I felt that using emojis in my writing was a bit informal and irregular. But as I grew more comfortable here in WordPress, I started using more emojis in my posts, specially the emoticons, the bigger and cuter version of emojis.

I feel that the use of emojis makes our writing more personal, a bit informal and more colorful. I’d never use them in formal emails or letters, but personal texts and messages have lots of emojis.

What about you? Do you like using emojis in your posts, texts and messages?

Please share your thoughts in the comments section or you can write your own post and link it to this one so that I can find it.

As usual, thanks of visiting and reading.

Is it possible that the concept of time only exists inside of your head?  General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics are thought to be in conflict with one another and most scientists feel that we need a new, more general theory and they are leaning toward loop quantum gravity, which appears to eliminate time entirely.  General Relativity works great for trying to explain how gravity works on a planetary scale where gravity is a strong force and Quantum Mechanics gives us a good picture of how things work on small scales when gravity is weak.  String Theory is an attempt in theoretical physics to explain the quantum nature of gravity, because it deals with how gravity works at the miniature scale of particles.  String Theory predicts that all elementary particles are, when viewed close-up, vibrating loops and strings.  According to Einstein, matter distorts the very fabric of space and time around…

he walked the dingy halls
more than a thousand times
carrying resentment and strife
muddy shoes trailed his path
aware of all the injustices
that followed him around
one day, it suddenly clicked
a tiny spark outwitted his tricks
reformed his world
to an instant delight
he walks again the dingy halls
a tiny infant in his arms
oh my look at his strides
passing through the corridor
with renewed fervor
and sense of pride
the halls now in his eyes, transformed
to a bright luminous route
at the end of the path
he saw his wife, greeting them
with a glowing smile
he said to her,
i’ve been through this halls
too many times, only now
it appears foreign to my eyes
something i-
simply fail to cognize
you changed, dear
was his wife’s short reply.

The word prompt for this week is

Jamais Vu

It is the opposite of Deja Vu.

➰➰➰➰➰

I opened the door to step in the sunlight

The breeze was cool on my face, the sun hot

Have I ever experienced this dual sensation?

You see a face, seems familiar yet a stranger

Have I met this person before today, I think?

You pick up a book to read, the story is already known to you

But this is the first time you’re reading this author

The tricks our mind plays on us are confusing

The unknown is known, the known seems unknown

What should have been a routine suddenly became unfamiliar

And what should have a new experience, looked like a well trodden path!

Jamais Vu

Should I wake
and fail to find familiarity
in the face beside me
or the arms that surely
have embraced me, know
that I would want you
to hold me even closer,
whisper in my ear words
to wake within me memories
of our moments together,
that I may once more know
the joy we have shared.

 This is my response to Reena’s Xploration Challenge #251: Jamais Vu.

Jamais Vu involves a sense of eeriness and the observer’s impression of experiencing something for the first time, despite rationally knowing that they have experienced it before.  Jamais vu is sometimes associated with certain types of aphasia, amnesia, and epilepsy.
