Step Away From The Keyboard

When I finish a book and I have loved that book chances are it now has a home in my head.

I replay scenes and dialogue in my mind’s eye and at that point my imagination takes over and I think, ” what if? ”

I like to replay those ‘what if’ moments when I’m on a long train commute home, or when I wake up in the middle of the  night from a boring dream instead of a nightmare in glorious technicolor.

So, no I don’t want a follow-up book to my favorite stories. I want to feed my imagination so that it can grow big and strong and vibrant.

And spooky of course.

I don’t think that Jud Crandell, a father like figure to Louis Creed in the novel/movie Pet Semetery by Stephen King was intended to be a villain, but in the end what he did to Louis and his family was pretty diabolical.

He took Louis to the Pet Semetary and from that moment Louis damned his entire family and It was Jud who set that event into motion.

So below is a quote from Jud that is true- I agree  with it.

Diabolical, right? How can dead EVER be better then living?

Blame that point of view I hold on Jud.

He put that bug in my ear- it is after all what he does.

If I could live anywhere in the world,

I would want to live in a place where skeletons dance in my front yard

The Deadly Zip Code

There is a saying that goes, ” What does not kill  you, makes you stronger. ”

Bull.

What does not kill you the first time is bound to try a second or third time.

You don’t become stronger when you live in chaos.

When you live in chaos food looses it’s flavor, the sound of laughter grates on your nerves, when you smile  your face hurts and when you speak your voice sounds far away and hallow.

Chaos isn’t good for anyone and if you find yourself a resident living in the state of Chaos, remember that living in this zip code isn’t going to make  you smarter or stronger. It takes away from you.

Don’t treat chaos like it’s good for you, ever.
