My mind would have a lot of trees in it. Like the border would all be trees. There would be a lot of cedars and tulip poplars and locust trees. The grass would be long.
Here's a thing I've noticed about myself lately. I'll start expressing an idea and then I'll get part way into saying it and realize it's not the way I want to say it and then I'll start all over and say it completely differently.
Sometimes I can speak in a clear decisive way and then some things could be said in a lot of different ways or approached from a lot of different angles and it's hard to pick one.
But I would rather speak in a clear and simple way.
Cookies are good. Water is runny. Germs are mostly okay. Don't be afraid of germs. But also cover your mouth and turn your head when you sneeze. You can't just be blowing that out in the public air. You have to create your own private air pocket to ruin and then absorb that into your elbow crease.
I respect reptiles but I don't trust them. I don't think they want my trust. I think they chose a path that doesn't worry about trust and I'm not going to try to force that on them.
Did you know the word scurry comes from the shortening of hurry scurry which is a reduplication of hurry? Reduplications are words like super duper, chilly willy, easy peasy, nitty gritty, dilly dally, zig zag, lovey dovey etc...
But scurry was so cool that it broke off and formed its own band and lived its own life. That's great. No wonder that lizards scurry. They both side, 'here I go again on my own. going down the only road I've ever known. Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.
