Hi Rambi. I'm having a good day. I am surrounded by non-human beauty, not that I have anything against human beauty, oh goodness, no, heck-heck no, but when I said I am surrounded by beauty, as one of a list of things I was starting, I thought it might sound a bit harem-ish (sorry, Ish) and insouciant, so I quickly improvised and stuck in there mid last-letter-before-next-word strike "non-human," to eliminate any exposure to prurient perceptions ~ well, truthful perceptions of prurience ~ but "non-human" made a different effect, than simple modifier, and things got out of hand worse, way worse, actually, than if I had just gone with surrounded by beauty.
But you have to admit, surrounded by beauty, CAN be hinty of prurient.
Yowza. Yes.
That's what I think.
"Surrounded by beauty at arm's length."
"But no further."
Non-human is better, now-a-days, than "natural," wouldn't you say?
Hasn't "natural beauty" lost its say-ness? Does it say anything? "Natural" beauty? ("Yah? So? So what.")
(Except describing humans.)
Non-human says a lot, though.
Too much; maybe.
But it's not stellar beauty, not technically; and it's not geologic beauty, certainly; and it's natural, but hardly; being irrigated, like Pampers.
Uhm ~ I should go back to That List, of things making me feel good.
Not that "things" make me feel good.
I think that is a trap we should not fall in. We don't need "things" to make us feel good. Things like massive exotic floribundae. Like heaven.
Okay forget those.
Item two, is that I sent someone something I thought was "neat," and I just got an email back from them saying, "Hey! That was neat! Can I have that?"
Well....yah!!
You bet!
By all means!
That's why I sent it to you!
Isn't that exciting? A little? Nice?
Not that we need things to make us excited.
