WATCHING ANOTHER GWYNETH PALTROW MOVIE POSSESSION I JUST CAME ACROSS AND HADN'T HEARD OF BEFORE...

JUST WATCHED PROOF..A GWYNETH PALTROW  MOVIE I JUST CAME ACROSS I HAD NEVER HEARD OF OR SEEN BEFORE ABOUT A PROOF WHICH WAS IN A NOTEBOOK AND PICTURING IT LITERALLY BEING IN PUDDING  AND BEING RUINED UNABLE TO READ IT ANY LONGER WHEN THE ACTUAL MEANING OF THE PHRASE WOULD  WORK PERFECTLY WITH  THE PROOF... GOOGLED THIS

The proof is in the pudding is an expression that means the value, quality, or truth of something must be judged based on direct experience with it—or on its results. The expression is an alteration of an older saying that makes the meaning a bit clearer: the proof of the pudding is in the eating.Mar 9, 2022

AFTER WRITING THIS IMAGINE MY SURPRISE WHEN I GOOGLED POLKA DOT POLKA AND FOUND ONE ON YOUTUBE...HA HA...I ALSO LOOKED UP ORIGINS OF POLKA DOTS AND THEY GO FAR BACK TO  MEDIEVAL TIMES IN EUROPE AND THE  CONNOTATION BACK THEN WAS CONNECTED TO SICKNESS LIKE SMALL POX OR PLAGUE...INTERESTING FINDINGS THERE CERTAINLY UNEXPECTED BY ME....GOOGLE IT

POLKA DOT POLKA https://youtu.be/ZGNpOBzpcvE

The origins of polka dots date back to medieval times in Europe, when they held a much more ominous connotation. Back then, polka dots and any similar patterns were associated with disease and poor health, likely due to the visual similarities shared with the sores caused by the plague and smallpox.Jun 16, 2022

HERE IS A NICER ONE I LIKE BETTER... What does the polka dot symbolize?

Meaning of Polka Dot Patterns

On the Western side, the circle is a circular movement which does not change, does not end, lasts forever and is perfect. It represents protection among them and for Christians, it symbolizes eternity. It is the symbolization of the universe, of perpetuity.

What do polka dots have to do with polka?

The term likely originated because of the popularity of the polka dance around the same time the pattern became fashionable, just as many other products and fashions of the era also adopted the "polka" name.

MANY OTHERS ON GOOGLE TOO I WILL STICK TO THESE...IT MENTIONED MINNIE MOUSE WEARING A POLKA DOT DRESS TOO...HA HA   

I JUST REMEMBER POLKA BANDS PLAYING AT THE FUN FAIR IN GRAMMAR SCHOOL AND MY GRANDMA USED TO GRAB OUR ARMS ONE OF US AT A TIME AND DRAG US ALONG THE DANCE FLOOR TO POLKA WITH HER...OFCOURSE WE HAD NO IDEA WHAT TO DO SO MOSTLY JUST SKIPPED ALONG AND HOPPED HA HA...FOR SOME ODD REASON THE ONLY POLKA SONG I REMEMBER IS SHE'S TOO FAT FOR ME. I THINK THEY HAD IT ON A FORTY FIVE RECORD OR SOMETHING...I DON'T WANT HER YOU CAN HAVE HER SHE'S TOO FAT FOR ME...GEEZ...I THINK THAT IS THE ONLY POLKA SONG I ACTUALLY KNOW... BEEN THINKIN AWHILE NOW AND CAME UP WITH TWO MORE POLKAS I REMEMBER FROM WAY BACK WHEN...IN HEAVEN THERE IS NO BEER AND THE BEER BARREL POLKA...NICE SONGS FOR KIDS TO SING IN GRAMMAR SCHOOL HUH...HA HA...I REMEMBER MY GRANDMA USED TO BLAST A POLKA RADIO STATION ON SUNDAYS  ALL THE TIME TOO...BUT SO FAR ONLY REMEMBER THREE OF THE ACTUAL POLKAS AND THEN SHE LOVED HER BOBBY VINTON...I REMEMBER MY MELODY OF LOVE HE SANG SOME POLISH IN AND FOUND A VERSION OF SHES TOO FAT FOR ME HE DID TOO...

I WAS ONE OF THOSE KIDS THAT ALWAYS STUDIED AN PAID ATTENTION IN CLASS AND USUALLY KNEW THE RIGHT ANSWERS. I WOULD ENTHUSIASTICALLY RAISE MY HAND WHEN THE TEACHER ASKED A QUESTION SO MUCH TO THE POINT SHE WOULD IGNORE ME AND CALL ON PEOPLE WITHOUT THEIR HAND RAISED SO I LEARNED REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY...IF I REALLY WANTED TO ANSWER A QUESTION I WOULD  SLUMP DOWN IN MY SEAT AND LOOK DOWN SO THE TEACHER WOULD CALL ON ME AND THEN I WOULD SMILE AND BLURT OUT THE ANSWER AND SHE WOULD LOOK SHOCKED...I HAVE ONE PARTICULAR TEACHER IN MIND  FOR THAT REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY EXPERIMENT THAT WORKED SO BACKFIRED ON HER...I WONDER IF SHE LEARNED A LESSON OR NOT...HA HA...MISCHIEVOUS MAYBE BUT MAKING A POINT...I THOUGHT SHE WAS MEAN TO CALL ON KIDS SHE THOUGHT DIDN'T KNOW THE ANSWER INSTEAD OF THOSE RAISING THEIR HANDS THAT DID. SHE LIKED TO CHASTISE THEM FOR NOT KNOWING...INSTEAD OF TRYING TO HELP THEM LEARN SHE EMBARASSED THEM FOR NOT KNOWING...THAT IS JUST SO WRONG...

I HEAR A LOT ABOUT ALL IS ONE AND WE ARE ALL CONNECTED AND OUR SOUL IS AN INFINITE PART OF THE UNIVERSE THAT LIVES THROUGH MANY LIFETIMES TO LEARN  VALUABLE LESSONS POSSIBLY ON SOME MISSION FOR EACH LIFETIME HERE...OUR CURRENT HUMAN SELF IS A ONE SHOT DEAL BUT OUR SOUL LIVES ON INFINITELY.
