Testing
Bitty often amazes me. There are times I wonder what is really going on in there. Is she bored? Is she scared? Is she comfortable? All things I have wondered myself about people too. But those thoughts only come and go; they are fleeting. So what makes up most of my own brain activity? Have you ever asked yourself that? If you could record every thought you have during the day, what would your word cloud look like? And for those not familiar with a "word cloud," it is a type of graphic that shows words that have the highest occurrence as larger and those with fewer occurrences as smaller. Anyway, back to the thought experiment, if you were to think for a whole day and record everything you said and thought in your mind that maybe wasn't said, then what would be the most common themes? Would you be proud of yourself, or maybe you'd think nothing of any of it. I think we need more imagination in our day to day. There is this life that we know we must live, but why live it just watching and consuming as if you are seeing a movie. Maybe it's time to get involved, create something. That is what I am doing here; I am trying to express myself. Albeit I am limited by the language that I speak and the strings of letters and words that my brain can mush together. But the more you do it, the more you will wonder: "This could be better." And I think a large part of life (mine at least) is making life a little better for yourself and hopefully others as you go along. That joy would radiate and inject those around you.
