My Mind Scares Me

I wrote this almost a year ago on April 14, 2010 at 2:57 am; I think I was awake finalizing our taxes – it’s the only excuse I can think of:

Have you ever noticed that there are upbeat letters and downtrodden letters in the alphabet?

Like the letter C gets to start words like caring and cheerful, or compassionate and concerned, and it’s always calm while still remaining curious.  Whereas the letter D is simply defeated, dejected and depressed, not to mention disappointed, discouraged, and disgusted, probably because it is disliked, dismayed, distressed, disturbed, and down.  Simply put the D’s are just dreadful.  Now some might point out that the D’s will always be able to fall back on Desire, which is a pretty nice D-word, but let’s face it, how many times have you heard of too much desire leading straight to an early death?

Need more examples?  Well, the P’s are passionate, patient, proud, and quite often pleased, but the M’s are mad, mean, miserable, and moody; which leaves me feeling mortified.
