A woman in line had a small symbol tattooed in black on her upper arm. “What does it mean?” I asked her. “Consciousness,” she replied. I pulled up my sleeve and showed her my lemur. “It’s a monkey smoking weed,” I said. “I figure that means about the same thing.” She proceeded to order a chicken sandwich.
I go to the farthest extremes and put the worse case scenarios out there. Because if I say what the worst case scenarios are then I am not as afraid of it. And after I say the worst case scenario, you refute it, and then we talk reasonably about the realistic scenarios, the middle scenarios. Most everything that happens to me usually falls between the worst case scenario and the best case scenario, somewhere in between. But the best part of arguing is saying the worst thing first. Sometimes I think there is something destructive about me but the best feeling is sometimes destroying, so that I can no longer be afraid.
Is consciousness also drawn in that process?
There is a thing in you that takes the thing that isn’t supposed to be said, and then says it loud.

I love the dune bowl pic Art, it is other worldly…. Best case scenario is that there’s an afterlife. But I feel a likely scenario is that there’s just life.
remember when i used to whisper to you “the worst” after about 75% of the things you said? it is a gift yet also your curse. don’t let it devour your relationships though…
beautiful pics btw!
