WHATUP. I recently took a trip. A monumental trip that allowed me to see all kinds of birds lurking about and living it up. Fancy birds, dancy birds, frankly who needs pants-y birds... Okay go home shitty Dr. Suess. Anyway, I came to the realization that different types o' birds be everywhere. Let's go animal... Bird edition.
1. Cool with Contentment bird. The simplicity of a full tree above you, a nest full of innocent chirps, and a blue sky to soar into is more than enough. You find comfort in the happiness of minimalism; a great deal is worth singing about.
2. Driven and Daring bird. You chirp quickly and with great passion. Your days are filled with the tasks of a great bird... You might be a great bird. No seed is too small and no tree is too tall. You dare to ask why--your feathers shiver with the anticipation of possibility.
3. Stuck in Cement bird. Your talons sink deeper into the concrete that is your home soil. Why would you try somewhere new when where you're currently planted has the benefits of convenience and ease? You sink deeper. See you next year... You'll be in the same exact spot.
4. Unsure and Fearful of the Unknown bird. You etch the names of dream destinations in the bark of your home tree. Germany, you write, Scotland, France... A tear forms and falls off your water repellent upper cheek feather. Back to gathering sticks and hair to add to the nest.
5. Up for Anything and Optimistic bird. You're the type of feather-bearer that goes with the flow. The West is calling your name. You fly the coop and puddle jump until you're partying with some chill Venice Beach pelicans. Those birds have all the sweet hookups.
6. All of the fucking birds... all at once. In a single day, you're comfortable, terrified, optimistic, impassioned, overcommitted, unfulfilled, stuck, unsure, and 47 other things. Your complexity is exhausting--even to your own self. Perhaps your depth and uncertainty is merely an indication of the boundless future that lies before you? That's what you're telling yourself anyway.
Oh shit, you're a human? Well, my bad. Please disregard the notes and classifications above. See future blogs for human stuff.
