Sometimes I feel dense, as in not easily grasping simple thoughts or ideas. I am a very intelligent person, so I don't know why I have these occasional tendencies to be dumb. Maybe everyone is like this to some degree, and I'm really just normal.
A kangaroo's pouch is really weird. I don't understand why God made them like that. The little joeys have to crawl over the hair to get to the pouch, and all for what? Why can't they just grow inside like all other mammals? I do think, though, as a human, that I would like a pouch, too.
Maroon is an obnoxious color. It's the perfect mix of red and purple to drive you mad! Women who wear maroon nail polish, I've noticed, seem to wear no other colors. It's deep enough to be depressing, and not red enough to be exciting at all.
I love being part of a cast. It's like an impromptu family that springs up out of nowhere based on fiction and fantasy.
Her legs sprouted from the bottom of her dress like the long stem of a beautiful red rose, smooth and pointed into her graceful heels, serving as a tiny vase. Without thorns, and bearing a creamy hue, they begged to be touched.
Assisted is the past tense of assist.
The crane crept through the water on legs long and thin, like a cloud balanced on chop sticks. His neck stretched down to dip his beak into the fish-filled pond, and he paused to look at me before he plunged, as if to say, 'Bet you can't do this...'
I am thankful for all that I have been given, and I have been given a lot. God provides for me always, sometimes through the help of others, and it never ceases to amaze me. I hope I give a fraction of what I get in return.
I don't know how to braid hair, not even my own. I understand the mechanics of how to construct a braid--separate into three parts, then lap the groups of hair over one another until you reach the bottom. But I can't ever seem to make it look very attractive. Maybe practice makes perfect.
Today I was honest, but I had to make a conscious effort to be. My mind was jumping straight to dishonesty, but thankfully my heart stayed in control. Just when you least expect it, the devil can try to get you, but I didn't give in, and I was pleased with the results.
