and I'll never ever get them back. USPS, thanks, but no thanks.
In any matter, I was in a self-reflective mood today. I suppose that I had the time to think and think about things while I drove from one side of town to the other (and back again).
Through my reflection, I noticed a few things about myself...
1.) I wish that I had some of my innocence back. No, I don't mean this in a Romanticism type of way. I wouldn't trade my innocence for wisdom. However, I miss the innocent-like wonder and naïvety that I used to have: I don't need to always be a little rough around the edges; there are times for sweetness as well.
2.) Actually, I only came to one conclusion. There is a number two simply because there is a number one and I have some strange desire to remain consistent with myself whenever I said, "a few thingS..." earlier.
That's all that I've got folks.
Some things may be happening...some things and other things may not be happening. Oh well, I'm rolling with the punches and I am mostly happy. That is all that we can ask for, right?
May the Logos be with you

I've seen many people who exhibit sweetness and joy though they have gained wisdom, and I've seen many people exhibit roughness and nastiness despite what might be called innocence.
If you wish to be sweet, be sweet. If you cannot call upon sweetness in yourself, then you must turn to cultivating it. Find what makes you gentle and perpetuate it. That is how your wisdom can make you better.
