This month will be all about reflection, yesterday I said I wanted people to send in doodles but today is a special occasion- My TEDx talk just went live on youtube and I couldn’t think of anything more reflective than to watch it.
It was a weird out of body experience which involved a lot of cringing. The most enjoyable bit is the laughter- I remember being stunned at the time that the audience was laughing. I hadn’t really accounted for it while practicing to a wall at home. Proof that I made some people laugh is really nice- making people laugh is one of my favourite things ever. It’s so satisfying- whenever I make people laugh my brain says “hah! I made you have good emotions out loud!”
“You look perfect”
“The princess’ taste is impeccable”
“What a glorious idea”
Everyone was nice to the princess
It was became hard to tell
What was sincere?
But a laugh
A laugh can’t hide
When it explodes
Snorting
Choking
Shrieking
That was the good stuff
And she could weasle it out of anyone
She’d strike at any time
The barrier would come crashing down
They’d see each other for the first time
Person to person
And life would solidify for the princess
Become real in that moment
