Despite my seemingly calm and sane exterior, I often have strange thoughts, worst-case-scenario kinds of things. I imagine what I would do in this or that parlous situation if it were to arise. Even with dreams, I keep working out resolutions after I’ve woken up, sometimes at the detriment of getting more sleep.
One of my doomsday considerations is this: if I had to lose my speech, sight, or hearing, which would I forsake? I always go with speech.
