I’m very much the same way Trashman, I have a strong urge to make a joke about it, making fun of myself is fun. But it’s too easy to be miss understood, umm, Little Miss Understood?, No… Mr. misunderstood yeah that’s it! Hmm, I think picking a picture of a squirrel was a good choice for my identity here. My brain runs around like one.
I still like bikes, only a horse is a more comfortable ride than a motorcycle. A horse could never have given me as much pure fun and sense of freedom. Long rides through the mountains alone.
Anyway at least this time I’m pretty sure we understand each-other. It’s a good thing to care about how what we say affects the world. My posts would be much much longer if I actually thanked every single person that said something to help me. Today I’m just writing to make sure you know you’re on the list of people who help me feel less like a weirdo, more like a genuine human being. And actually OK. I’m good enough, I deserve to be here. Please don’t let your brain tell ya you don’t deserve to be here. Mine still tries to think that way. I just let that nonsense slide off into the sea; and I imagine myself surfing the never-ending waves of thoughts, moods, yeah butts, and second guessing that keep pushing me towards a rocky shoreline. Some waves are good n I catch em, ride em well, kick out before I get too far inside. Other times they’re too big, close outs, or too crowded. I’ve caught large dangerous waves(ideas) that nearly killed me. Life is a lot like surfing. I’m glad that surfin analogy/metaphor idea popped into my head… An open mind is like keeping my eyes out at the sea, waiting for the next set of waves, knowing there’s a good long ride in store for me. I choose more carefully now that I’m finding out more about who I am. I’m totallyadd! (we are).
A mind can be a terrible thing to listen to! It’s good to not waste it either.
Surf on Brah…
Hang loose.
PS, I’m glad successful adders pissed off our anonymous friend. He started one of the better threads here. That ain’t easy….. blah blah yadda yadda ….. etc. etc. etc. onandonandon.
