ambivolence.

When you fly as much as I do you have plenty of time to sit and stare out the windows of airplanes. Recently I caught myself gazing out a fluffy white clouds as the tapestry of America unfolded beneath me and this reminded me of feelings of jealously I use to harbor toward a rather prevalent 80's street gang of sorts....the care bears.

You see it's not that they cared, we all should care about something. It's that they lived in the clouds and lied about shiftlessly until some kid got mad at his mother and needed a "life" lesson in caring. It's the sitting around in the clouds that I envied because, simply put, it looked comfortable. I know the reality and if I tried to nap in the clouds I would plummet to my death. You win again, Good Luck Bear.
