Everyday, she promised me that she'd get something done, refrain from hours spent thinking out loud, and everyday she admitted that she'd tell herself she'd only "look quickly" to see if anyone cared, but then she realized that she was just about the only one entertained by it.

And there were some thoughts, a lot like her own, more evolved in most facets (based on experience and lack of hinderance).....and she wished terribly to converse with the thinker 24 hours a day. But, in her wisdom (acquired through blunder) she realized that she must discover others with this same perspective....surely they must exist....or were they bogged in the exhaust and asphalt and deadline mire she'd escaped from not long ago?????

Patience, learning to listen (slow the pulse), and appreciation of what is....now.....not what will be.
god, i really want a pool.
