In the Corner
Sometimes, even as social as I am, I need some time for myself. Going out on a drive, rocking out with my favorite classic rock station; going down to sit at the breakwater rocks at Lake Michigan, just to watch the ducks, geese, and the waves; or even just sitting in a quiet corner, pondering. About everything. Nothing. Anything... Of course, it would be great, if I could sit in a beautiful French room, like what is pictured, and think about my friends, such as Christine, who knows elegant art when she sees it...
I often sit in a spot, where direct sunlight doesn't shine on, when I ponder... Somehow, a touch of darkness helps me focus at the same time, blanking my mind. Of course, this sounds like a contradiction of terms, and Nina is the expert of making these contradictions make perfect sense.
In MY point of view, I should be allowed to adopt every abused child, to give them what a loving home should look like. Trevor's point of view is, I just finished a school program that I should go for, and do what I have been for the sake of our abused and neglected children. He is probably correct.
But, of course, I am "trying to move mountains with words", and Barbara does a much better job in doing this, because what's simple is true.
