(no subject)
Yesterday I saw Maris's puppy- it is the cutest little puppy!! And then we stayed an watched Hitch (it was my second time seeing it) which is a funny movie, I must say. Today Margaret and I made our two mixes, which are awesome. Just now Phil and I went to BK and saw Duper. He served me my food. I felt cool. Later I'm getting a guitar lesson (down, down, down, down, up, up, down, up, down, up, down, up) and then probably playing night games with a bunch of kids around the neighborhood. I can't wait. But this entry isn't about any of that.
Ever noticed an ant crawling around on a path like the one at Community Park? The kind of ground that's black and has a ton of bumps and cracks that we hardly notice. Well I have. It's funny to think that we don't even mind the path's flaws, because they're so tiny compared to us. But when I watched that tiny ant trying to navigate through the mounds, I tried to imagine if people were that size. Not only would it be creepy to have ants our size, but it those minute hills would be like canyons to us. Watching the ant go in a zigging, zagging, even zigzaging, line made me smile in sympathy. I can't explain how it affected me, but it made me appreciate my size, and think about the little things. Literally.
Ever noticed a gorgeous sunset? The kind that make you pause from your hectic life for a few seconds to admire the beauty of nature? Well I have. But I don't just look at it and go "Oh. That's pretty." Then forget about it. Well, sometimes I do when I'm busy, but if I have nothing else to think about I'll think about it more. I find it shallow when someone can't see past the looks, even if it isn't about an actual person. I may be mistaken, but these are my thoughts.
Ever not think about anything at all? When you find it best to think about absolutely nothing (and I mean, NOTHING. Blank space. Empty. White. Nada. Zip. Zilch.)? Well I haven't. I mean, I have felt kind of empty, but never had no thoughts what-so-ever on anything around me. How can people empty their minds like this? SOMETHING has to be up there. It's impossible for me to clear my mind totally, even when I sleep. It's not that you don't want to worry, because emptiness means no happy thoughts either. Who would rather no think than think of good thoughts? Are their lives that bad that they have no happiness? Something has got to be good. Think about that one thing. I just don't understand it. To me not thinking seems not only like a waste, but it makes the person appear shallow, insensitive, stupid, depressed, pathetic, and no personality. None of these could be true, but that's how it appears. I just wish I could have some insight into how they feel or why they would do that, because that's one type of behavior I just don't get. How? Why?? *Sigh* :-\
~Random fact/joke: What kind of horse never wins a race? A sawhorse!
~Random thought: I found out why popsicle sticks are so fun to chew! Because it's like ripping apart the stupid, corny, pointless jokes on them. (See above for example.)
