My words to ponder for the day (week, month...quite possibly years)

"So much of what I see reminds me of something I read in a book, when shouldn't it be the other way around? "

Been hooked on words recently. Just can't seem to get enough. I've always been a reader, but recently it's all I've done. Just soaking up everything like a sponge. Probably what inspired the quote from before. I need to get a life, but there's all these books and they're calling me.

Found this tonight and absolutely love it:

Because She Would Ask Me Why I Loved Her
by Christopher Brennan (1870-1932)

If questioning would make us wise
No eyes would ever gaze in eyes;
If all our tale were told in speech
No mouths would wander each to each.

Were spirits free from mortal mesh
And love not bound in hearts of flesh
No aching breasts would yearn to meet
And find their ecstasy complete.

For who is there that lives and knows
The secret powers by which he grows?
Were knowledge all, what were our need
To thrill and faint and sweetly bleed?

Then seek not, sweet, the "If" and "Why"
I love you now until I die.
For I must love because I live
And life in me is what you give.

I have a cavity and I have a headache. Most likely the two are linked. Cavity will (hopefully) be taken care of on Thursday. As it's my first time with this dentist I hope it's not a consultation with a "we'll take care of it in a week, schedule an appointment at the front desk." Much as I hate needles, I want this pain to go bye-bye now.

What is it with the needles again? I think it's just the CO medical community's attempts to drive me out of town. Yeah, that's it.

Around six months and counting...
