Well, my first statements here and I`m not exactly sure why I`m beginning with this one, but anyway, yesterday I finally got to cutting the long grass around my house, looking meanwhile across the street and behind my property at the manicured lawns---thinking mmmmmmmmm. Just why have I buckled under to this suburban mentality that everyone must have beuatiful green grass and trimmed bushes. You know, there was something rather pleasant and restful watching my long grass blowing in the breezes undulating like the nearby sea. So now, naturally I`m feeling guilty, like I`d destroyed part of the natural rightness of the universe. Oh, come onjust from cutting grass??!! So who was the first person who decided that neatness had to be the norm and that the rest of us had to follow along like sheep to make this original "rightness" continue? But then, itsnot just about our houses and property, is it? Guess its the norm and that everyone really feels MORE comfortable conforming with the rest of society--my neighbor gets a new car, I`m supposed to be impressed and follow suit?? No wayAND in fact for the rest of the summer I`m going to have tall grass waving around my house whether anyone likes it or not. Hey---can the police arrest you for not cutting your lawn?!!!!
