Today I....made my hair curly. (well. Last night.)

The results?

Ignore the fact that my hair is a mess and hasn't been styled properly..

Looks amazing, doesn't it?
You almost expect it to get up and follow you around!
Creaking and swishing as it moves...
Complaining about how it's been mistreated and abandoned over the years! Laughing
(Sorry the puncture spoiled the day. Sad )

I was seeing a lot of very mature Yew trees at this place, druids grove, and some of them had such a huge girth! some looked completely dead from the bottom of the trunk up until the tops of the very top branches and there they would have a few green leaves.

It made me think, about the human mind actually. The tree is probably like that (dead to everywhere except where it gets the sun) in order to survive. Like the brain, in a coma, to the outside it is dead, not responding to life outside or stimulus but inside most alive in just that little place, the imagination/dream part. Enough to keep it going.

Sorry if that sounds weird of morbid, but that is a thought I had as I walked through that place. But yeah, it's a bit of a weird thought Laughing

Have your read The Bridge by Iain Banks?
That's a story based on that idea. It's brilliant! Laughing
(I've read it 3 times. Yeah, eventually I hope to get it right! Razz )

No I have not read that book. I don't read much fiction. The unconscious survival instinct is so strong, but where does it come from I wonder and what drives it? Confused
