Alice

I think we spend a lot of time trying to reason and make sense of our lives. I know I do. But as I am reading this book, I find that I am frustrated with Alice for trying to make sense of Wonderland. Because as the reader, I already know that Wonderland is made up of nonsense, the nature of it just does not matter. Yet as Alice inturupts and injects her reason into the conversation every five minutes, I find myself wanting to tell her to calm down! However, this is the story of my life half the time. I actually sit and reason with MYSELF about things that just don't matter in life. It sounds silly, but sometimes it takes something really rediculous to make us see how much we actually do the SAME things in everyday life as in Wonderland. We may not be screaming "Off with their heads!" but something pretty darn close. Though it seems everything else has gone crazy, I probably just need to relax and realize that some things are just as they are.
