fishy

so this might not make any sense, i am aware that is usally the case with me..but this is my blog so i get to not make sense :)

i have a pet fish now and hes pretty sweet..he lives in my bathroom and im not sure why.. but when i had fishes growing up this is where they lived..so the point is i only see him when im going to the bathroom. but thats not the point of this blog.

i have an analogy.

my fish lambchop he lives in his little fish tank he poops in it he eats in it he swims and does his thing there. its what he knows. so this scary things comes along and realizes lambchop your house is nasty you pooped in it.. i am going to need to clean it..in order for you to live a nicer life in there. but lambchop hes a little gold fish he doesnt understand this. he would be content in this poop infested fish tank. but me being a human knows the best for him starts pouring water out and im sure he feels a very strong current and all he can see is the drain. he doesnt know he can trust the hands that hold and control the tank. so i put him in a smaller cup with some water in it while i clean his house he freaks out a little bit i can tell his swimming seems more spazzy. but then i put nice clean water in his house and then here comes the hand again and pours him into his house. when he gets back to his house its clean and nice and theres no pooop. well hes a little mad. he doesnt understand that he had to go through that for a nice clean house and so he wont die. and ya he went through some scary situations, situations he didnt know i had control over.

that was my attempt. i started reading the great divorce by cs lewis and i think he got me thinking a little bit.. and i realize that this is probably the silliest analogy but i like it.. me and lambchop we have things in common..now i hope i dont kill him because that would ruin a lot of this analogy.
