I like making t’-do lists and finishing everything on ‘em. I like the feel of the pen as I strike through each task one by one: Done! Done! Diddit! Done!
Each one a little achievement, in its place and right with the world at last. It’s very satisfying.
And then I start the next list.

In his dream he saw a huge puffy white cloud drifting so sedately overhead that it seemed almost motionless. The cloud, he noticed, was shaped like a Lakota village nestled under snow-topped mountains. On the horizon to the east, he saw the faint brown smudge of an approaching dust storm. Faster and faster the storm approached until he realized that at the center of the swirling cloud of dust was a regiment of horse-mounted soldiers.
The dust-shrouded troopers continued to pick up speed until they collided with the big white cloud in a crash of lightning and a burst of rain. In an instant, the dust — and the soldiers — had been washed away, and all was quiet and peaceful as the huge cloud continued to drift toward the horizon and finally disappeared.

as told by Nathaniel Philbrick in “The Last Stand”
