Orange County II

Ok, I just ate an orange and noticed the sticker on it said it was from South Africa. That's crazy! A piece of fruit traveled half way around the world and then I ate it. I wonder who picked it and what their like..... Life must be way different for them. It's almost like one of those thoughts you have when you think that You are You and that you're a person who can make your own decisions and stuff. Mind bending..

Rob, your thoughts could have been a poem. Of sorts. Elizabeth Bishop wrote a poem titled 'In the Waiting Room' that describes a similar moment you experienced. It's a readable poem, like a story, so I think you'd like it. Maybe. Take a look. "...you are an I, you are an Elizabeth (Rob), you are one of them....Why should I be my aunt, or me, or anyone?"
