Perhaps I would wish for a stand because of the stability it offers me. Or perhaps I would wish to turn over because I dont want people to use me anymore. Maybe I would even want to break, and just get it all over with.<br /><br />What do I think I would want as a bowl? I think I would want a stand because I will feel valuable. Its nice to feel valuable.Disaster girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16390828721717514290noreply@blogger.com
