Biography

I tend to ponder about anything and everything. Here is my attempt to put into words what I've mentally discovered.

Samples

As I look eagerly out the plane window I'm surprised to realize there are few people with the same excitement to see the amazing view from above. Maybe they've seen it a thousand times? They are used to the beauty. But, I say how can you ever get sick of something so beautiful? So amazing to be above the clouds. It looks like a fluffy snow bank below and whether you're 3 or 30 you can't help but imagine what it would be like to lay in the fluff. You can see the whole city from above, the tiny cars seemingly so slow. This is not usual. This is amazing. Yet, even then people don't care to even take a look. Because that's the thing. People can get used to beauty and people can get sick of the things they once found unbelievably lovely. And right now he thinks I'm the greatest thing since sliced bread and looks into my eyes with wonder and amazement, but I know how people are. I know as time goes by he won't even take a peak out of the window.
