Circular Conversations

I'm tired of conversations that circle around themselves like a lost Hansel and Gretel with no more bread crumbs.  I find that sometimes, sitting at the living room table, I feel myself transported back to some dusty memory in which the same words twist through the air in similar patterns. The same questions repeating themselves, the same daily actions replaying endlessly like the hands of a clock. And these fill our conversations, infiltrating them at every possible moment.

The circles are inescapable. 

I'm getting tired of it. I'm ready for something that goes ON, beyond those circles, that brings in new shapes and colors and words to create something entirely new, so that we can escape from the infinite loop.

  1. connection to world civ! you know, we were talking about how some religions have a cycle pattern, and other religions teach that you can be released from that cycle and go on like there's a purpose.
