What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?

Sometimes, it’s easy to obey the signals of others. And perhaps you shouldn’t. For safety’s sake, obey your own.

I rode my bike, wore a helmet and looked both ways.
I harbored secrets.
I ate healthy.
I was unkind.
I cleaned the house.
I was encouraging and supportive.
I went to the gym.
I was happy with a modest lunch.
I worried and cried a little.
I made a pie from scatch.
I danced and sang.
I thought everything was going to hell.
I thought everything was going to be just fine.

I took a ride home in the Amazing Technotrash Chatty Cab tonight. We get in and were immediately — and intimately — assaulted by the repetitive dirty lyric “Get naked … on the floor. Get naked … on the floor. Get naked … on the floor. Get naked … on the floor.Get naked … on the floor. Get naked … on the floor. Get naked … on the floor. Get naked … on the floor.” And then we notice that the air freshener is labeled “PINE BOMB.”
And the cab company was called “Pretty Enette.”
It was pretty cool.

I took a long walk last night, meandering east on Foster, north on St. Louis, east on Bryn Mawr, south on Lincoln. All in the chilly mist, diffuse street light, and energetic playlists. And while I walked in rhythm, I thought of anything but what was in the back, front and sides of my head.
When I finally stopped walking 75 minutes later, my face burned and my hair felt like cotton wool. It remains great to be alive.
