Inside the Box

Over and over we are encouraged to "think outside the box." No one, as far as I know, has ever suggested thinking INSIDE the box! How come? If there's an outside the box, it would follow that there is an inside the box, wouldn't it not? Or, consider this question -- if there is anarchy, is there also "archy?" Or maybe, if there is insight, wouldn't there also be "outsight?" Hmmm. The point being, that if there's thinking outside the box, there must be something inside the box to think about! I'm not sure I've ever heard what was inside the box! Having been accused of being at various times insightful, deep, visonary, creative, inventive, clever, interesting, and just plain freakin' nuts, I consider myself to be an ouside the box kinda gal! So, what's inside the box? Enquiring minds want to know!!!

Now, that's pretty silly!

  1. I am not so sure I want to have anything to do with what is inside the box. Many scary things come in boxes, for example: jack-in-the-boxes, mail, crossword puzzles, mimes, do you see my point? Outside the box is infinitely safer.
