Literally Speaking

 Remember me mentioning that I have a new camera and that Vlogging would commence shortly? I ran into a bit of an issue: I don’t have anything to say. What do you want to hear about? Should I be juggling or something? Swallowing swords? I just don’t know. So here’s what I propose: a Literally Speaking question and answer session. Whereby I will answer your questions.

Keyword being “your”. I’m not going to answer my own questions. That’s beyond stupid. The vlog will appear once I have at least twenty question from readers, if I have any left, and I will do my best to answer every one.

“I wish I had the courage to do something else besides bidding my time,” she said.

Why? What’s stopping you?

“There’s just little things that I haven’t the strength to let go of. They’re holding me back. I go to sleep too late. I eat too much over the weekend. I floss monthly and sometimes forget to wear sunscreen.”

They are little things.

“I once slept for an entire day.”

…

“And sometimes I think that I’d rather dream the dream than live the dream so I think, actually, what might be holding me back is my lack of passion. I don’t care if it only remains a dream. I just don’t care.”

Than why are you complaining?

She bit her lip. “I guess I do care some.”

Do you care enough to hold on to me tightly while I jump?

“Where are we going?”

Paris. Heaven. To the epiphany and beyond!

“Wait, wait!”

What is it?

“I don’t know.”

What do you want?

“I don’t know.”

Here’s your bed. Would you like to stay here and dream of Paris? Because you could lie right here forever tuning your imagination until the mattress turns to stone and your heart disintegrates like a muscle encased in a cast.

“I just want to be happy.”

You wouldn’t know happiness if he looked right at you and held you and loved you and breathed your name when he died.

“I don’t want to lose anyone.”

You don’t have anyone to lose now.
