thanks for your interested comment. surely we have both sides of the functioning (not extinguished by hemorage!) brain and should try to use both to the max. as a side observation, i don't do literal, i can only make sense of anything by putting it in a context. for instance, i find the beginning of most novels very hard to get through as my brain keeps searching for a referential point that is yet to present itself or may never come the way i can relate to, and i can't move to the second sentence until i understand the first sentence, hahahaha. some (limited number of) books instantly click into my world of references. i definitely need to explore more the liberating and ever-expanding world of senses that my right brain has to offer if it isn't fossilized yet..

Hahaha. I definitely relate to that. I was reading a novel / trilogy in one book that followed three different story lines in three locations with three casts of characters. And then they insisted on giving them each at least two names. It was maddening! I had a four-hour delay between two five hour flights, or I think I would never have put in the commitment to get into it. Once I did, it was fun. Here's to non-fossilized non-flooded brains!
