It's Thursday morning, June, about 25 July, 26, just passing Berkeley Horticulture Nursery. I was listening to, I think it was chapter 6 of 1, 2, 8, 4 and trying to think about that also my own story and some good metaphors came to me in illusions and not all like them down. So basically I'm trying to think about the relationship with his father some more and the meaning of the toxic waste site. Basically I'm touring with the idea that CF might be a veteran of the Warnigock but I'm not sure if you want to see how convincing his motives are when described as a better but anyway in addition to that, thinking of how the story is starting to take the shape of a tree that has been an old oak tree that has been pruned in such a way so that the branches they would normally extend out, say, beyond a neighbor's fence or a neighbor's home are trimmed and how they seem to unusually just take these angles and they literally look like arms raised upwards and that could be partially because there's an aesthetic there. There is what people see is the beauty of the growth of the tree's branches and it could also be either of that. They had determined because they had the first segment gone in one direction and they trimmed off the branching segment would they have intruded on someone else's home or property and so basically that's the irony of that effect and I think the story represents that. The story is about the full representation of the tree with its ghost branches and the tree's live, existing ones, what that would look like in prose form. So like for myself, I see myself in Christian Fletcher but I also see the father that I never had in his father who is managing a toxic waste site who's American who's Christian who doesn't know anything about Egypt. Now it's ironic that I also lost my father at nine on the Egyptian but that's why the story can take that shape because that branch was pruned and what was left was a ghost in its place. So at least synopsis of the image of the tree or pruned tree and the themes in the story. So how then did you tie this back to Christian Fletcher and a characterization of him? Basically, you describe him as a morning person, someone who hates dead ends and he is very interested in the path that we take in our daily lives. He likes to walk a lot and he hates being abruptly cut off by something in his way. Whether it's an obstruction in the path or a dead end that he didn't know was coming because the sign was removed. And that end obviously there's word play on that because there is death in the ending, the death of Amina. And that signifies his worst fear but also something from which he finds a new path. And he can describe it how it's a child. And he was first taking a walk with his father used to run on his head. And one time his father was telling him, don't go down there, that's a dead end. And he was like, no, I know exactly where I'm going because I was no fine. Like I told you, and sure enough, he follows the path to his dead end. And his father sees him crying there and doesn't understand why. And he's like, that's death. He's struggling because he knew it wasn't a dead end but that was not the case. So father looked at him like he thought something was wrong with his son and he didn't understand that the boy wasn't upset about the fact that there was a dead end there. And he was upset because he wasn't right because he wasn't a dead end. So those are all critical to Christian flesh's background and how he drives him towards. That's what he's doing right now. So I'm going to pause here a little bit for the light.
