The All-Life Changing Powers of One Word...Step Right Up and Collect Yours...Going Once...

Yesterday, Mike, Adam's brother, and Gilma, his wife had an extremely huge fight. Like shit being thrown and a whole lotta yelling and cursing. But what the whole argument was based on isn't what is important or relevant here

"A simple word could change everyone's lives yesterday forever. But I chose not to say it.."

"...Afraid at night, when you enter someone else's room, it is important to whisper her name before you touch her, so she knows you are approaching, and does not become alarmed.
I am interested in suddenness. iIf there is no way to prepare then there is nothing to worry about but if you think about the hundreds of possible outcomes, it sounds like a truck crashing thru your roof. Listening awake, i will hold my body as still as possible. Doing nothing is an action. Prayer is an action...Thunder is louder than a human voice could ever protest, and without a pattern. Theres no way to be sure. In 1939 after The Wizard of Oz was released, 17 girls ran from their homes, open-armed, into tornados and died. I suppose it was just a way to feel certain, to encounter, violently, the verge of relief, just as, in a storm, the front door rips off at the rusted hinges, no longer separating the house from the earth. Without a door, it is not your house. Without a house, the children are not sane. Id wait for the whine of the garage door at night, a broken man's whine, my father's warm, humming bones, then reverse, like the sky coming down. If only the rain would ease into sleep with me, soak thru and be finished, I could breathe.."

Thinking things through is one of the things that has brought success or failure to many people's lives. It's hard to do something completely reckless in that sense. That's like taking a step forward and not knowing if the ground is there or instead, there's a gaping hole that you believed was a usual sight. I just wish you'd know the outcomes of choosing whether to, or not. It'd kind be like one of those "Choose your fate" books. I wish you could turn to page 93 after reading page 41, and see what beholds your destiny, and if you didn't like what it read, you could simply go back to page 41 and choose another direction.
