Thirsty? Just Whistle!

I'm a hoarder of sorts. Like the next guy, time, life 'provide' for an inordinate amount of crap that will either bring pennies come Estate Sale day or, head to the dumpster to also be ultimately buried too. In this case though, I''m talking about a list of favorite words snatched up along the way from kiddygarden, to just yesterday morning.

Zimbabwe is one. Just hella fun to say (and hear).  Some regular ole regular like love, nice, passion, sweet, farts pooters...whippersnapper, snotnose, chimchimcheree, inagaddadavida, and of course boomshakalaka.

Thirst. Add thirst to the above list. (May be a pop quiz later, so please be thinking of your favs!)

Merriam, I assume madam librarian, relates 'a sensation of dryness in the mouth and throat associated with a desire for liquids'.. well sure, and 'a desire  or need to drink', so "well duh", hella why it's on my list.

Merriam continues 'an ardent desire', CRAVING, LONGING...  Yeah baby, I'm all over that one.

Thirst. Thirst to be here. An ardent desire to put the tootsies on the floor in the morning. The quest, want, to go see 'alive', friends, loved ones, birds, trees, rain, snow, sunshine.. to wanna feel the wind.. smell whatever the situation lends... To wanna partake, be among.... Smile, laugh, cry...FEEL!

Sure, a thirst for, in, of, a relationship. You didn't ask, but on of my all-time favorite movie quotes... On Golden Pond.... Bitter that she really didn't have what she (Chelsea) graded as a good relationship with her father (Norman Thayer), Chelsea in a breath calls him a sonofabitch to her mother, Ethel Thayer.  Ethel, OOZING with relationship thirst for her hubby replies "That sonofabitch happens to be my husband " Yum.

Want. Awaken. Smile. Go. See. Sit if it feels better. Pet a hound. Take a drive. Hold hands. Use the word love. Chin at least level. 

Thirst looms large. Must be kept in hip pocket, and heart.

Yes, it can disappear, usually temporary. Enlist: Doctor, friends, loved ones, and probably most importantly, self.

Victor, there you go preaching again. Nope. I've simply experienced thirst dwindling, lending a hand.

We've all probably observed friends, loved ones, who have been through so so much...for whatever reason, "I'm tired" is communicated. Sad.

Just as sad, bastard mental afflictions that literally steal the ability, want, knowledge of how to eat and drink.

Sometimes life plainly sucks.

Thus, we gotta fill the resta our time up thirsting any, every thing life puts in front of us.

Love you. Did I mention friend was onea my favs too?

Just whistle!

Love, Victurd
