Try not to
sit down on thistles; it takes all of the Life out of them.
Besides, someone
might have planned on eating them for lunch.
fffffffff
Being fine
today doesn't Mean Anything.
It may hail
a good deal tomorrow - blizzards and whatnot.

Something about
the way Very Bouncy Animals say How-do-you-do
tends to leave

When you've
been walking in the wind for miles,
and you suddenly
go into somebody's house, and he says,
"You're just
in time for a little smackerel of something,"

Sometimes a
boat is a boat, and sometimes it's more of an Accident.
It depends

If you are
looking for Home and find instead a sand-pit, try looking for a sand-pit.
Then you'd
be sure not find it, which would be a Good Thing,
because you
might find something that you weren't looking for,
which might
be just what you were looking for.

Sometimes,
if you stand on the bottom rail of a bridge
and lean over
to watch the river slipping slowly away beneath you,
you will suddenly
know everything there is to be known.
mmmmmmmmmmmm
Don't underestimate
the value of Doing Nothing,
of just going
along, listening to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering.
