Thoughts #7


Preppy in Riot
I think it’s interesting, people’s organic reaction the phrase. I generally don’t clarify my meaning, because I don’t want to influence the interpretation of others. Most of the time, it’s taken as a self-depreciating concept that I’m applying to myself. To some extent, it is. But like everything I write, or adapt for my own purposes — there’s a lot of layers of meaning present in the combination of words, for me.
Fundamentally though, below the surface, it represents a personal philosophy… a perception of reality that I always strive to attain.
Something a bit contradictory, that makes perfect sense to me:
To live every moment, to experience life, and to view the world with such wonder, that the sensation of wonder becomes my norm… “ordinary”.
