“Please say hello to the ocean for me.”
This is something now ask all my friends when they go away. Often they’ll ask what I want. I would like them to do this more than anything they could bring back.

Perhaps I could be a seahorse


Perhaps if I were an animal I could be a seahorse. I used to say bat because I’m “batty” and because they’re a confusing but cute and functional mix of kinda bird kinda puppy, and they are very good listeners. I think seahorse is the alter ego to bat. While the bat is the side that works fast and knows how to hustle to get stuff done people wouldn’t expect of little mammals, seahorse is the side that moves very slowly (learns very slowly), is sensitive, deliberate, inhabits the deep, and has to hang on or it might get carried away. It also looks like another animal it isn’t. I adore horses but am simply nowhere near big and physically strong enough anymore to claim that, so let’s go with seahorse.
Also the males give birth, and man INFJs are surprising.
