Explosive Surprises!

Explosions are not comfortable.

—Yevgeny Zamyatin

Lil’ Toot here. My Distant Cousin Horatio was the adventurous Type. He came from the Explorer Branch of the Family. Word is He was put on a Train as a Piece of Luggage, and traveled Cross Country on the Railroad’s dime. He lived in style as Conductors and Porters fed Him well. He loved nothing better than to travel to Unknown Places and make Friends. Living unstuck.

But His Biggest Surprise was a Pillow Explosion right beneath Him. One minute, He was sound asleep in His Fav Sleeping Spot, dreaming those Good Dreams. The next? Ker-whango! The Sofa Bed exploded, spewing Stuffing all Around Him. After, He was grateful to be Breathing. Another surprising Adventure for the Books. Living unstuck.

I wonder: Do You enjoy Surprises, explosive or not? Or do You stay in That Safe Corner? I say: Venture out. Do Something New. And Yes, You’ll survive that explosion. Living unstuck. #unstuck-living#explosive-surprises
