The Stately Home Fun Room

[BookcaseFullofBooks]

For many of us who have suffered dysfunctional and abusive childhoods, the children we were have been subjugated. Whether made to perform, grow up too quickly or keep a low profile, their needs have been shut away.
So, as an extension of the SH thread, I thought people might benefit from a space which welcomes our inner children.

Make this space whatever you want it to be. Let your imagination run free. If your inner child needs to express feelings that's okay too.

She Ra, She Ra, Princess of Power! I have a sword and a silver horse!

We don't have to worry about being right, there's no smelly old grown ups to tell us off

Thousands of years ago, Egyptian Queen Hatchupset was given an amulet by her Royal Wizard. This amulet empowered the queen with the powers of the goddess Isis; to command the elements of sky and earth. Flash forward to present time (1970's that is) young science teacher Andrea Thomas found this? More lost amulet while on an archaeological dig. She found she was heir to the "Secrets of Isis." By bearing the necklace that had the amulet, and calling out the phrase "OH MIGHTY ISIS," Andrea was transformed into Isis. As Isis, she could "soar as the falcon soars, run with the speed of gazelles, and command all the elements of sky and earth." In order to invoke her powers, she had to recite incantations. Her most famous incantation - "Oh zephyr winds which blow on high, lift me now so I can fly" - assisted her in taking flight. She also had control of animals, fire, water, etc. Her powers were usually used to help teach young people she came in contact with, a moral lesson. Her associates, Rick Mason, Cindy Lee, Dr. Barnes, and later, Rennie Carroll, were oblivious to her dual identity. Isis was seen as the female counterpart to Shazam (Captain Marvel). They had a few crossover episodes to each other's shows.

Ok!! This Isis...not some of the other things that appeared on Google, ffs.

This is gobs of fun! Thanks again.

Feeling scared tonight. The world feels like a terrifying place.

What are you going to be?

I loved sharing my children's toys with them when they were little, and looking through the catalogues and shops for things for them to enjoy, that I got as a by product, I loved giving them lovely Christmas and birthdays, I loved watching them in schools plays, extra corricula activities, I loved giving them the things that average children get and them just being normal.... I loved decorating the children's rooms for them in the way they asked them to be done.... I loved having my children's friends over to play with them... i loved watching my children make up plays at home. I love to play card games with my children. I love to play charades with my children. I love to take the children out for a meal and sit and really talk to them when we are out!
