I usually don't think that much about what I have to say either, except for here in Mongolia. I spend several hours every day sitting in silence trying to figure out how to say things. Hahaha<br /><br />Great questions Chase, that gave me a lot to think about. First, I think idle chatter between friends can be nice, such as when you and I talk about crazy things. That is definitely worth treasuring, in my opinion.<br /><br />As poems and fairy tales go, I think those are fair game too. They are definitely beneficial, endearing and agreeable. I suppose it's when we pretend that they are true and factual that we get into trouble. So long as we are clear about the fact that they are poems and fairy tales, I think we are good to go. : )Travis Hellstromhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11956367235404300646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12316304.post-773429627909064362009-04-25T01:37:00.000-05:002009-04-25T01:37:00.000-05:00I really love this entry, Trav. I don't think much about what I say very often, or else sometimes I might think too long. What do you suppose is the harm in idle non-divisive chatter, or talk that's untrue, unfactual but beneficial, endearing, and agreeable like, say, a poem or fairy tale?Chase Vaughanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02595413031318866489noreply@blogger.com
