Walking helps me think.
I walked into my living room this morning and thought......."What am I doing here? Why did I come into this room? Am I looking for something? If so, what?"
And then, it dawned on me: it's just nature doing its thing.
It's "defragging" my brain! My brain is busy at the moment.
..... it's deleting all those useless old files, many of which have been there for over 60 years.......like half learned algebra and geometry fragments...old girlfriends phone numbers....all kinds of files .. DATS, DLLSs.
DOCS, DOTS, ETC....images of old girlfriends.....old girls I wish had been girl friends....friends of girls...etc..
I'm trying to be positive about it......perhaps it's making room for many future great memories.....and deleting forever those old memory files like the first day I walked into Central High and saw all those beautiful girls I had never met....and.....then there were the Proms.....and the Spring trips to Myrtle Beach...and the bathing suits.....all of those old mental images were being deleted..........all those beautiful girls...
Good Grief....Those files are being deleted!
"STOP!......STOP!" I shouted. "this is horrible!!........oh...the humanity!.........Pitch the math and history and geography stuff.....but for Heaven's sake....don't touch those other files!"
I hollered so loud ........so loudly in fact....that I woke myself up.
It was all a dream.....a nightmare.
Those memories are still there....
Whew!
