Walking down stairs is hard enough w/the lights on sometimes. Not to say that your experience doesn't give you a better percentage chance of making it...actually, lets scrap that metaphor. Its kinda crap. Lets pretend, instead, that you are walking UP stairs that are made of a giant, benevolent, emerald python. This creature means you no specific harm and his scales feel cool and pleasant on your feet. His shifting, breathing form fondles your soles but as you prepare to take your next step in the dim light, he settles restlessly. You, unprepared and unaware of his unconscious undulation, falter on formerly familiar footing. This is a pleasant experience. This is what makes getting up in the morning an important endeavour. Why in the world, or any other planet for that matter, would you want to wander a worthy wooden walkway, connected and composed and concrete. Instead, lurch, lunge and laugh on the life snake. Don't forget the laughter. Its important...
