LAURA Nahon Ostos

She said: "Imagine being a bee and living in a great big hive. You would have no idea tomorrow was going to be any different than today. You could return to that same hive thousand years later and there would be just the same perception of tomorrow as never being any different. Humans are completely different. We assume tomorrow is another world."

I asked her what she meant, and she said, "I mean that the animals live in an other sense of time. They can never have a sense of history because they can never see the difference between today and tomorrow."

past of childhood

You are drinking tea, burning your tongue. You blow to cool it. You make little sips and you slurp so loudly, that it's impolite, or so I've been taught in childhood. And I start to slurp too. Because it's not childhood anymore. And everything is allowed.

"Out There"

-

Do you remember that old TV series, "Get Smart"? You remember at the beginning where Maxwel Smart is walking down the secret corridor and there are all of those doors that open sideways, and upside down and gateways and stuff? I think that everybody keeps a whole bunch of doors just like these between themselves and the world. But when you're in love, all of your doors are open, and all of "their" doors are open. And you roller-skate down your halls together.

Let me try again. Im not good at this.

Karla and I fell in love somewhere "out there"- I think that's the way it happens-"out there". The two of you start talking about your feelings and your feelings float outside of you like vapors, and they mix like a fog. Before you realize it, the two of you have become the same mist and you realize you can never return to being just a lone cloud again, because the isolation would be intolerable.
