the other day i was pondering the concept of pondering. keep in mind, please, that this was late at night/early in the morning when i couldnt sleep and was in a very special mood. did you know that literally, to ponder doesnt mean to think. its actually a way to categorize a small, stagnant body of water. as in, one body of water is ponder than the other. if one big puddle is different than another, it has potential to be ponder than its competitor. correct? or rather, you could ask the question, what makes a pond ponder than another pond? what are the qualifications, who chooses them, and what gives them the right? i guess you could ask who ponders ponder. coinsidence? i think not. the definition of a pond is a still body of water smaller than a lake, yet now you can realize that a pond is so much more complex than that. if one pond can be ponder, the stillness of the body of water isnt the only comparison between ponds. if one pond is swampier than another, does that qualifiy is as ponder than another, or is it then a swamp? what specifically has to happen to a pond to cause it to be ponder? in the movie 'mona lisa smile' julia roberts asks "what is art? what makes it good and who decides?" so now to follow in the wise footsteps of a rich celebrity, ill ask the following: what is a pond? what makes it ponder, and who decides?
ponder that.
