u r a deep thinker
tts why i try to steer away fr ur train of thoughts
Do my thoughts wreck others? Perhaps it would be easier to survive in our world by being superficial and not 'think so much'; or perhaps just keep all the thoughts deep within myself. Perhaps the 'dumb blond' is more than just the butt of jokes; perhaps its a sustainable survival strategy in our societies.

Liberating 10:58 pm
It has not been the best of Sundays. Not bad, just not good, especially after that phone call this afternoon.
But that aside, there was a moment today I relished.
We attended Mass as a family at SVDP. Having Fr Paul, a visiting priest from India, did bring a smile to our faces with his sometimes-comprehensible accent. It started to rain halfway through the service, and boy was it a thunderstorm.
When service ended, I volunteered to drive the car over to the church's porch so that the family won't get wet. I hesitated to step into the pouring torrents without an umbrella. But the moment I did, it was liberating.
The initial droplets that touched my skin through my dry fabric startled me as I picked up speed whilst looking for oncoming vehicles. But the moment I settled into the wetness, it was refreshing from there. The rain just drenched me as I ran across the streets, and relishing every moment. There was a peculiar lucidity that I enjoyed.
It really was liberating, that left me grinning the moment I got into the dryness of the car. It is a grin that I wished to share.
Let's run in the rain together sometime.
