Creative Experiments and More

She appeases her inner turmoil by creating 
Order in the external environment around her

out in this world
on your ninth month.

a series of building blocks
set the foundation
master them well
or fall like dominos
but know
life is a strategic gamble
not mastered
only with good guidance
individuality, authenticity, and risk add value
a quality of life

Class today we will be learning about the alphabet.  Can anyone tell me how many letters are in the alphabet?  Bobby raised his hand and Miss Walker said, “Yes Bobby” and Bobby said, “There are 26 letters are in the Klingon alphabet.”  The whole class broke out laughing, which is exactly what Bobby wanted.  Miss Walker said, “That is very good Bobby, but I was referring to our English alphabet, which was based on the Latin alphabet, and it also consists of 26 letters, each having an upper- and a lower-case form.  Our alphabet originated from Old English, which came before the Modern English language, and it was spoken between the 5th and 12th centuries.  English was first written in the Anglo-Saxon futhorc runic alphabet, also known as Anglo-Saxon.  The Angles and Saxons came from Germany and settled in Britain in the fifth century.  The region they inhabited became known as ‘Angle-land’, or England.”

In reality, glass dominoes never work. When one goes down the rest will fall and shatter. That’s why they were kept on a high shelf, away from her two little girls. Although, when their cat walked past them, one fell forward and the rest followed.
