Running with Scissors ≈
I was tempted the other day, to run with scissors, just to prove to my mother that I could do it safely. Though I am 35 and she has been gone 10 years I still cannot do it. I fear that as she warned, I would trip and pierce my heart or gouge my eye out. Worst yet, I could fall and drive it into the dirt and dull its sharpened edges much to my mother’s irritation. A priest had warned me once of being with a girl unless I was married. When I made young love the first time I thought for sure I would die. I have made love many times since. But I still cannot run with scissors.
