Words

Profound - Having intellectual depth and insight.  Synonyms: abstruse, arcane, esoteric.

Postulate - To assume or claim as true.  Synonyms: hypothesize, premise, presume, suppose.

Prestidigitation - Slight of hand.  Synonyms: conjuring, legerdemain, magic.

Puissance - Strength and power. Synonyms: Energy, firepower, force, horsepower, might, muscle, potency, vigor.

I know, it's weird but you should try living in my head every now and then.  The colors are really pretty and things float around, sometimes begging for attention, sometimes just hanging there, shining, waiting.

I love words and their meanings, they are the balsamic vinegar of life, the essence of basil in the nose that spills from the tongue to fill the ears with it's fragrance.

Imagine it all mixed up, colors that burst in the mouth, textures that stroke the visceral insides, emotions that paint the eyes, sounds that swirl like dust devils around my body, that silken feel of skin, the cerulean sea.

It's cool this morning.  I shivered when I got up.  The coffee tasted fine.  The boys are ready for a good long walk.

We go.

    You've been here from the beginning, which amazes me. It took me a long time to figure it out. You've helped get me through some tough things, teased, encouraged, admonished, made me laugh, helped so much, just been there, thanks. My eyes are leaking but my heart is glad.
