A Random Moment


There are an incredible amount of feelings making my skin glow right now. Things I would love to elaborate on and uncover to the world, but the world wouldn't care and it wouldn't matter, so I'm going to talk about a deer.

The Leo of the group, Crystal, greedily consumed the first-hand view front seats have to offer, while Susie stole glimpses from Crystal's leftovers. The trip full of endless roads en route to Needville, Texas are hinted with fascinations of nature. Raw beauty. These are things us city girls (or more factually: chics from the suburbs) seldomly see. We're used to glittery concrete and a couple squirrels here and there and even they, make us point with surprise "Look! It's ON the tree! Right THERE!." Well, the car was continuing its bumpy adventure on gravel, when the brakes were slammed due to a yell from my passenger (my attention while driving is poor). It was a sandy doe making its way across the road at the same time I was. The screech of my brakes frightened the nervous doe and caused it to fall near my bumper, clouding the air with dust similar to the tan hue of its coat. It reminded me of a baseball player sliding into base. It quickly retrieved itself from the trip and scattered off into a thick patch of weeds which hid an array of flowering trees. Our awe prolonged as the animal disappeared; the car stayed still for a good three minutes waiting for more action from the trees.
Seeing this creature of the wild, this deer that makes its appearances in the mouths of bears on Animal Planet, made an impression on my day because of how rare the occasion is when I get to see a big animal. Could this so to speak concept be applied to love? Will feelings tainted with electricity be as prevalent in sporadic visits that are spread out over time as compared to consistent ones? Will the big animal be as fascinating if he lived in the suburbs?

I was sleepy. Not my best, but it'll do.
