I feel that there is more to it than that. Sure, it seems a puddle. From the surface it doesn't look very deep. The water, though, is obscure. There's mud there, and several leaves. A piece of bark or two, different miscellaneous splinters of forest.
But can you say, even from a few feet of distance, that it is a puddle? The season unknown, can you declare it as shallow as well?
What if it is winter, and this is a lake. The water frozen, and most of it concealed by nature? Perhaps it goes deep.
Then again, maybe it is a puddle. Maybe I'm over-thinking it.

She steps, feet sinking into the sands, toes curled in warmth brought about by the sun. The sunset shines across the briney waters, beakoning. A multitude of colors: orange, red, white, a blend between the fire of a star and the calm blue sky. The sea reflects the beauty: the wonder is intensified and she considers leaping into the beautiful azure expanse, the breathtaking spectacle encouraging.
But she's never gone into the ocean before.

Mumbles fled from his lips as he carefully leafed through the new JUMP. Gintoki was lounging on the couch, shoe-sheathed feet rumpling and staining a cushion, his perfectly arranged messy kimono trailing on the floor, as he pondered Luf** from One *****'s latest action. Kagura lounged on the other, a piece of pickled seaweed shoved between her nimble lips as last night's rerun of Lady's 4 flashed before her eyes. She was perched like a captive child, her hands under her chin: propping her head up as her belly sunk into the couch. Her legs sashayed forward and back as the heroine sobbed dramatically.

The lucky men- bundled in heavy, tattered coats shuffled around impatiently. Their faces were worn with fatigue. Each wrinkle that lined their faces portrayed a hardship. In the outskirts of the group, warm coats became scarce. Most men out there were dressed simply or in layers of rags. Cruel, thick clouds reigned the sky above. Rain pounded heavily upon them. All- cold or not- shivered. Hunger clung to their faces and barren stomachs. The cold stench of alcohol permeated their surroundings. Cheap alcohol swirled in their mouths and their bottles.
All had experienced soul-crushing disappointments and failures. All were soul-crushing disap
Here I am again, with empty promises and dreams of uploading my musings frequently. I guess I should learn from previous failed attempts on various websites.
Life is essential, it's part of my existence. However it really obstructs lots of fun things, including my exercise of the written word.
I should make life my bitch and conquer all, but I fear I'm not bad ass enough quite yet.
Instead of swearing regularity, I'll promise several attempts. I'll begin by actually writing on a regular basis- and not just drab assignments.
Send them my regards,
and suddenly it's 2013. Several changes and developments occurred in my life in the nearly-two years since my last update. I should go into details, but the night is almost half through and work demands my presence in 10 hours. I like to sleep.
It seems this journal entry has no purpose. I guess I should mention that I intend to ACTUALLY WRITE some original stuff again. Before my most recent emotional prose entry, I mostly wrote fanfiction (LoK, so much shipping) last spring. All that's over on AO3 and FFN. I might cross post some of it.
Anyways, have a fantastic dawn/sunset/noon.
I'd better have a new deviation by July 3rd.
So I'm back from where-ever it is that I was. (At work and Gaia and actually doing my summer assignments.) While I was away, I was too lazy to log on and write entries. That, and my muse has finally died. (She'll be back in zombie form soon, though.)
The books I selected for my summer reading were excellent. I felt that Nabokov's was less pleasant to read in one sitting, which is why I decided I would stop and continue the next day. He's heavy, man. Marquez was awesome, I read it in one sitting and it was light and fluid, like a salad without any dressing. I'd like to take a sentence here to inform you, lurker, that I dislike dressing. Ranc
