Last Riddle - Given and Taken

So here's last week's riddle.
And I'm guessing no one actually wanted to guess, and because of the lack of responses to these riddles, I'll be ending them with this one. So the 10th and last riddle is this:

It is made,

It is given,

It is a bond,

That can't be broken,

To break it,

Means unhappiness,

To keep it,

Is utter bliss.

You probably guessed it, but it was:

A Vow.

No reason, just thought it up...Ok so the next few weeks I'll just be posting up random sayings, as well as rants. Unless you want more riddles, COMMENT! That is all I ask. Good day!

Riddle 10 - The Cheese!

Here's last week's riddle guys!

It is a part of us,

That we cannot see,

Without it's presence,

We cannot be.

To have and lost,

Is not to not have at all,

It makes us blind,

But with it we stand tall.

So who am I,

I cannot say,

But you can show me,

Some other way...

Sorry it's cheesy, I couldn't think of anything else.

But did you get the answer?

It was...

Heart

So there really wasn't a reason for this, but I guess, it was something right? Anyway, this next one will probably be better.

It is made,

It is given,

It is a bond,

That can't be broken,

To break it,

Means unhappiness,

To keep it,

Is utter bliss.

Again it's a bit cheese! Oh well...

Again answers can be posted as a comment so please...COMMENT!!!! 

That is all!The picture this time, is mine, but it was made in a time when I didn't know what to do with myself, so I decided to make up these sorts of pictures. There is no link on it, because it is fully mine! It's actually my Twitter background. ^^

I SURVIVED!!!!

Yes! I survived! The fact that I'm writing this post, shows it...granted I did make a few mistakes...but I doubt anyone noticed...anyway...ready for the riddles!

Here's what I posted up last week:

You cannot see it,

Yet it's there,

But you know that

It's everywhere,

A life without it,

Is no life at all,

A life with it,

Can stand up tall,

We know it is

What we need,

We take it for granted,

Even in our sleep.

So what was the answer?

Well...

Air

Yeah, not really meaningful, but for the last few weeks I've been posting up really deep and meaningful riddles, I thought I would give you a break...So yeah, that's the real reason for this riddle. But then again, it is true...without air, you can't live, and with it, we can stand tall, it has an invigorating effect. I don't know how but it does!

Ok, here's this week's riddle:

It is a part of us,

That we cannot see,

Without it's presence,

We cannot be.

To have and lost,

Is not to not have at all,

It makes us blind,

But with it we stand tall.

So who am I,

I cannot say,

But you can show me,

Some other way...

Yeah, the last part, was a bit of a hooha...but I couldn't think of anything else, but the others are really what the riddle is about.!

Riddle 8 - Things Happen

So...The riddle for last week!!

We accept it from birth,

We live it until the world hits us,

When we oppose it,

Others say we are blind,

We close ourselves off to its ideas,

We judge those who are,

We cannot accept what it is,

Even though it has been for ages.

What did you think?

The answer is...

Religion

Ok so the reason behind was probably obvious, the appointing of a new Pope in the Catholic Church. Yes I'm Catholic. Actually there are many reasons associated with this riddle, it's not just the new Pope, Les Miserables, had a hand in this too...I don't know why really, but I just know that those who do have faith it's not just because of our own personality, but it's also in the way we were brought up...I don't know I think that if I didn't grow up the way I did now, I'm not sure if I would have had faith in God. But I'm glad I do, because right now, I don't think I can live without God in my life, anymore. I try a lot to see, but I just can't, because when I do, I end up feeling empty inside. Well anyway, enough with all this mushy stuff...Back down to business...

Here's this week's riddle:

You cannot see it,

Yet it's there,

But you know that

It's everywhere,

A life without it,

Is no life at all,

A life with it,

Can stand up tall,

We know it is

What we need,

We take it for granted,

Even in our sleep.

Yeah, I just wanted to make one that rhymed, it's been a while, so here you go!

Riddle 7 - This is getting ridiculous

OK, so I'm late in the next one, I've been busy anyway, you know the drill! ^^

A world set apart,

Seen and is real,

But is never believed,

Those who lived in it,

Cannot describe it,

Nor do they want to,

We only dream of what it's like,

But we will never know,

If we don't live it.

Did you get it?

The answer is:

War

Again I was inspired by Les Mis for this one. How many of us can say that we've been in a war, physically, not emotionally or mentally. I mean like really been in one. I know there are many people who can say they have, and they can say a list of facts about how it was and how they felt, but we will never actually know what it's like to be in a war. Can you really imagine it: your friends and family dying right before your eyes? Can you say that you'd go to their aid instead of saving yourself? Can you even say that if you saw a gun aimed at your friend, would you really run to their aid? Would you sacrifice yourself, in an environment like that? You will never know unless you've lived it. Those who lived it say it's hell on earth, and we say we understand. But do we really understand?

Ok so enough philosophizing, down to business...

We accept it from birth,

We live it until the world hits us,

When we oppose it,

Others say we are blind,

We close ourselves off to its ideas,

We judge those who are,

We cannot accept what it is,

Riddle 6 - Oops O_O

So you know the routine now,

Here's the riddle for last week:

It is a salvation, and a damnation,

It is what we fear, but not cannot avoid.

It is a darkness and a light,

But it will never go away.

It creates grief and life,

We cannot escape it, 

Yet we can choose how to face it,

Some face it with heads held high,

Some don't want to at all.

So any guesses?

No?

~Well~

The answer is:

Death

Why? Well I watched Les Miserable, two/three weeks ago, and the overhanging theme was death. I won't spoil it if you haven't seen the movie or play, or even read the book. But I would SERIOUSLY RECOMMEND IT!! Anyway I thought about death, and was reminded not only in movies but in real life death is always present, but we try not to look at it, and say that we would only look at it later, but that never comes. So, why? Because there are always controversial arguments going on about it, but it is simply something that happens to everyone, at the end of our lives. It's the way you look at it, when you do. Why become afraid of it? Why run away from it? Just face it head on and welcome it like an old friend.

OK this week's one (I'll wait for Monday 18th March to post the answer of the riddle.):

A world set apart,

Seen and is real,

But is never believed,

Those who lived in it,

Cannot describe it,

Nor do they want to,

We only dream of what it's like,

But we will never know,

If we don't live it.

What do you think?

That is all!

The picture this time, is mine, but it leads to my other blog, the one that has the story, and if you do go onto that blog, please review the chapter you've read, because I would like to know if it's good, or needs amending. Plus you can add your own ideas! ^^

Riddle 5 - What is it We Fear?

So you know the routine now,
Here's the riddle for last week:

We do not exactly know what it is,

We say it is, but not what is thought,

It is different for another when it is true for one,

They are never the same, yet it is one,

It cannot be described, nor shown,

No matter how others try.

It cannot be true, as it can be altered,

It cannot lie, as it tells the truth.

Did you get it?

The answer was:

Reality

So the reason for this one? Well I was listening to the soundtrack for Inception one day, and it just came to me. I then contemplated what "Reality" was. For every person it is different: it can be good, it can be bad, but it's still just perception. Reality for everyone is a perception, that we cannot avoid. It is a truth, since it tells the truth, but we see it in different ways. So what is your reality?

Ok! Next riddle!

It is a salvation, and a damnation,

It is what we fear, but not cannot avoid.

It is a darkness and a light,

But it will never go away.

It creates grief and life,

We cannot escape it, 

Yet we can choose how to face it,

Some face it with heads held high,

Some don't want to at all.

What do you think?

That is all!

By the way, this picture has no reference to the answer, I put it up, because it reflects the thought of life, how magnificent and mysterious it is, we don't really think at all, and just take it for granted. AGAIN THE PICTURE IS NOT MINE!!! I just used it for inspiration, click on the picture to see who actually made it.

Riddle 4 - What is Being?

Well you ready for the answer to last week's riddle?

First here's last week's riddle:

The root of all sin, it creates not life but death,

Our only solution is to have none,

But even if we declare it, it is still there,

Present in the darkness of our hearts,

Even the purest,

It is our greatest defeat.

Did you get it?
The answer was:

Pride!

Reason? Well I thought of it during the week, while contemplating (peripherally) on a book I had read, it's not the root of all evil, since it's one of the Seven Deadly Sins, and I don't really think it's key, but in the book I read it was kind of what the author was implying, but it is a cause for sin, and I thought, well what is the root of all evil? I thought about how Satan had betrayed God, how he used to be the Morning Star. It was because of his selfishness, that he turned away from being a steward of Humankind, and instead became our greatest threat. So I came to the conclusion that selfishness is the root of all sin, (as is money, such as declared by Jesus) but in all essence, it is because we want what we want, and not what we need that selfishness takes its root. Even if we say we aren't, we are. Just because we give money away, or spend time with the poor, we only spend a limited amount, we don't actually give thought to what we do. So some philosophy there but hey... you never know.

So you ready for this week's one?

Here we go:

We do not exactly know what it is,

We say it is, but not what is thought,

It is different for another when it is true for one,

They are never the same, yet it is one,

It cannot be described, nor shown,

No matter how others try.

It cannot be true, as it can be altered,

It cannot lie, as it tells the truth.

What do you think?

Riddle 3 - Good or Evil

Last week's riddle was:


What has an eye, but cannot see,
It is a danger to you and me,
What is created, but does not create,
It is what we fear when it wakes,
What causes death, at the peak of life,
It has no fear, it has no strife.

Did you get it?
The answer was:

A Storm!

(This is not mine by the way!)

The reason behind this riddle was that I was in the middle of a very mild snow storm and thought about it. In any storm a life is taken, whether it be a blizzard, hurricane, tornado or even a forest fire (if you think about it as a storm). It reminded me of how short life truly is, so we must remember to live it, and live it to the full, as in Latin, my school's (old) motto: "Vive Ut Vivas", it's actually changed, due to a change in headteachers last year, to "Courage and Confidence"...it is actually quite relevant to the old one, since it does take courage and confidence to live a full life.

So, this week's riddle, get ready:

The root of all sin, it creates not life but death,

Our only solution is to have none,

But even if we declare it, it is still there,

Present in the darkness of our hearts,

Even the purest,

It is our greatest defeat.

Again I will be waiting for answers that are posted, so please...COMMENT THE ANSWER THAT YOU THINK IT IS!!!!

Riddle 2 - What Am I?

So last Wednesday I posted up a riddle, that went something like this:


It has no future or history,
It is always a mystery,
However hard we look,
It is something others have took,
It's not wanted when found,
But is needed all around.

What am I?

The answer was:

Love!

(This is not mine by the way!)

The reason behind this riddle, was because I figured that everyone needed a little love, and a riddle like this one will always find its answer in the deepest recesses of someone's heart, so if you know anyone who really needs this love, share it with them. ^^

So are you ready for the next one?

Here it is:

What has an eye, but cannot see,
It is a danger to you and me,
What is created, but does not create,
It is what we fear when it wakes,
What causes death, at the peak of life,
It has no fear, it has no strife.

Again I will be waiting for answers that are posted, so please...COMMENT THE ANSWER THAT YOU THINK IT IS!!!!

That is all!

By the way, this picture has no reference to the answer, I put it up, because it just snowed today!! I wish it settled!!! AGAIN THE PICTURE IS NOT MINE!!! I just used it for inspiration!
