For some time now I have been considering taking a vow of silence. I am mentioning this here because in my thoughts I consider a great many things. I have debates on a myriad of issues. Life and death, right and wrong. But I get distracted and find myself speaking. And - for all of my friends - you know I suffer from hoof and mouth disease. I sometimes only open my mouth to change feet.
I am more thoughtful on paper. Like a well-trained dog.
[I am posting this consideration here because if I posted it on Facebook I know there are a cadre of people (family AND friends) who would heartily endorse and encourage that prospect. They would love to shut me up.]
===================================================================
I think my daughter started this thought with me:
What material are you?
Are you Wool? Good in any weather.
Are you silk? Usable only in the fairest weather.
I am water. Sometimes I get steamed.
But I can roll with the flow.
Sometimes I freeze, can’t be moved, and I can be pretty cold.
