some words on a page - as if
to say "Here are some blue beads"
or, "Here's a bright red leaf I found on
the sidewalk" (because
to find is to choose and choice
is made)

"You write because you need to write, or because you hope someone will listen, or because writing will mend something broken inside you, or bring something back to life-"

(from Blackberry Wine)
I need to write. I need to rearrange and refine sentences. I want to ponder over how to put that thought in words; so that it fits in the scheme of things just so. Words can create magic and I want to get lost in them for some part of each day's life.
