Here I am, picking tissue lint, off my favourite linen pant's ( I hate it when you leave a tissue in the wash.) thinking small thoughts. My mind, dawdling along, as my hands pluck tissue. A bit like a magpie hunting worms. It is hypnotising, in it's own way. My dip, into the shallow end, of realities swimming pool. Now, I know, there are those out there, who are drowning, in the deep end and those who, swim laps endlesslly. And I will tell you, honestly. I know well, both those states of mind. Bu, for here and this moment. Dipping in a toe, is just fine.

Lint.
Here I am, picking tissue lint, off my favourite linen pant's ( I hate it when you leave a tissue in the wash.) thinking small thoughts. My mind, dawdling along, as my hands pluck tissue. A bit like a magpie hunting worms. It is hypnotising, in it's own way. My dip, into the shallow end, of realities swimming pool. Now, I know, there are those out there, who are drowning, in the deep end and those who, swim laps endlesslly. And I will tell you, honestly. I know well, both those states of mind. Bu, for here and this moment. Dipping in a toe, is just fine.
