The *uckenings 21

It’s not easy to write. Words can be like weapons. Sentences can be bombs. Letters have started wars. But sometimes it is better to think about what we write and then write it instead of saying things we didn’t think about properly before we speak. We do tend to take more time to write something down and to make it sound mindful.

Although it’s very attractive to be a fast responder - messaging does safe relationships. Thank god for technology!

I’ll try to not get into ongoing news. It tends to turn my head into a read steam ball. You don’t need to deal with that today. Let’s focus on the bright side. Thirty people plus in one space by Monday! Nice! Finally I get to touch more than five people on the head at a time and woooosh their hair. I really miss the times when strangers stick their sweaty armpits into my face in crowded places. Or the moments when random dudes talk at me excited to spread their germs all over. Let us get back to that and pretend nothing happened shall we? I also miss the gossipers in the supermarket blocking the way. And I miss all the cars filled with people crossing the country to go to work causing hours of traffic. Or being squeezed into a train like a sardine in a can between business peeps going to extremely essential face-to-face meetings. Let’s get back to that please.

I’ve had that song by Stealers Wheel stuck in my head for ages… ‘clowns to the left; jokers to the right – here I am stuck in the middle with you….bla lala…’ I heard that if there is a hook stuck in your ear you gotta find a shorter hook to record over it. Like something shorter than three seconds. Do you know the beginning of ‘All Star’ by Smash Mouth? ‘Somebody…’ That one works for me.

It’s a blessing to have at least a little power over our minds sometimes. Even if it’s just a little trick to master a reoccurring brain maze. If you are bored and if you have time to read get your hands on ‘Blink’. It’s good. And it describes how awfully simple we are. Please dear alien creators flip the switch sometime soon so we can finally be a-m-a-z-i-n-g!

Protesters have been raging on about corona conspiracies over here two weeks ago and Neo-Nazis apparently smuggled themselves into their marches. Here I go again! That annoying song is back! No.
