White Light

Mood: Chirpy
Music: Neil Finn - Dont Dream It's Over


I remember this time when I was discussing music with Ritz a couple of years ago.

"What do you think your voice would taste like?" I asked her
"What do you mean?"
"I think my voice would taste like ground coconut and banana. They're not overpowering tastes. I think my voice is sort of simple. But it has a subtle texture."
She nodded understanding.
"I think it has a tinge of honey too", she said
I blushed slightly at the compliment
"What does your voice taste like?"
"Well I think it tastes like watermelon"
"Watermelon?"
"Yes. A watermelon"
I nodded sombrely.

I'm laughing hysterically remembering the conversation.

But there are one or two days when I wonder if I'm missing out on the full spectrum of human emotions. Seriousness, sadness, etc. I don't think I have ever seen them in their unadulterated state. I'm glad that I've get myself into disappointments and heartbreaks. I think I've been coloured by those experiences to an extent but I've gained a greater appreciation for what it might be like.

I have a feeling that once you've seen the full spectrum and you take all those experiences and mix them together in some sort of collective wisdom hue - the shade will be 'fun'.

I don't think I'm missing out on that much. I need to understand what other people see but my world is bathed in this really nice natural warm bright sunlight. It's got everything. I need to live and grow.
