When you grow up...

When you grow up, what do you think you would you like to be? I'm torn... guessing either a playful porpoise

and/or a small bird let go free or maybe just a candle in a pewter holder, library sconce or outhouse lantern.

Come now Gramps! I expected a direct question from you.

I would like to be indpendently wealthy with a clean conscience.

I'd like to be a large, freshly-cleaned glass window.

Still write with my ears, MrHand. Supposing the eargate decided that phrasing seemed appropriately quizzical, inviting and whimsical...

Wow. I'd like to see that. You must be very dextrous with your ears. 😛

You don't grow up... you just get older.

Lots of sun light, healthy amount of water, fertile soil and a warm climate.

I live in Minnesota. Long winters. I'm shrinking.

I wouldn't mind shrinking some 5 cm...

I'm short as it is. 5 ft. 6 in. (168 cm) Shrinking is not good!

Though, I don't complain when I fly. If every one in my row is my size, I'm usually relatively comfortable.

All of us have tone sensitivity in varying degrees. Tone of voice always impacts as much as the words themselves in face to face conversation.

So since we're not face to face you can't tell that I'm typing with my goofy voice (usually I type with my toes for that).

There's no reason whatsover to accept some dictum of speaking station to station on a global internet site. Person to person is my preference.

P.S. Admit that I totally misread your social poise, intellectual stature and general maturity in reading your previous posts. My apology.
