I should try walking a mile in my own shoes

When I grow up, if I grow up, and if I live in the city I'd like to have a secret garden on the roof with trees and grass and waterfalls and tigers.

When I get married, if I get married, and if my wife wants to have one of those wedding things - this must be our first dance:



I want to have more dreams. I want to remember more of my dreams. Less time on the computer and more time in the magic cave, outside, in prayer, in silence, studying, learning. Less time pouting and more time being nice to my family, being nice to my friends, being nice to people I don't know that need it. Less time worrying and more time writing, having something to write about, chasing buffalo, listening to my beard grow, listening to the grass grow, petting Kronk & Wendy & Georgie, walking Roger. Less time conserving gas and more time out at the farm. Less time making small talk and more time making big talk. Less time liking you and more time loving you.
