Me-usings and Me-emories
1 August 2020 - Responsibility can be a burden. Just as my eyes are prepared to roll back into my head, my ears detect an unusual sound, originating outside our abode. So the heart rate quickens and I train my senses in that direction. How long a duration of typical background noise means "all's clear"? Whether one waits, barely daring to breathe, for thirty seconds or five minutes, time creeps by with muscles tensed in fight/flight preparation. If I were just protecting myself, I would make a beeline for my safe spot. But the shorter peep, fragile from her recent misadventure and seemingly unaware of the threat, needs me to hold the line.
Today's Catechism
(for the autodidcat)
If one doesn't hear "duty calls",
is one excused?
is one excused?
