There
are many unexplored areas of my brain. I
have accidently wandered into a few of them on occasion, resulting in some of
the things you’ve seen on this blog.
In
the upcoming weeks I’m planning an excursion deep into the right
hemisphere. I’m not sure at all what I
should bring with me; obviously a flashlight, some of those free hospital
booties and maybe a couple of long Q-Tips.
You never know; I may get all the way to the outer reaches and if I do
I’d like to push some of that ear wax out from the inside.
I
really don’t believe I’ll require any pocket change or snacks but in case I’m
wrong I’ll bring along a little food for thought. Of course should I stumble upon anything
enlightening or previously unheard of, I’ll jot down some notes so I’ll have
something to report when I return.
Most
of my friends don’t think I can pull this off.
They’ve known me for several years and all agree that I’ve never before
been in my right mind.
This will be
mostly an exploratory mission with not much of a budget and apparently somewhat
low expectations, however, everyone tells me that the right hemisphere of the
brain is the creative part and that’s what I hope to tap into.
Last
year I ventured into the left hemisphere and found it to be extremely organized. Everything was neatly arranged. Thoughts were separated according to
category, complexity and originality. Each
was hanging from a pegboard. Not only
were they all labeled but it looked as if they had been spray painted, so an
exact silhouette of their shape remained on the board showing exactly where
each one belonged. There wasn’t a stray
thought in the place.
I
haven’t yet figured out how to find my way back out once I’m in there. I’m really hoping something will just come to
me.
