So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

For the love of heaven, don't do this outside, or you will fall into the sky and you may never return. A stairwell is a good place, though. And it's usually a good idea, for the sake of neatness, to assume that everything that is on the floor or shelves is fixed to it, so that you are the only thing suddenly on the ceiling. Or are you? Look at the ceiling! What an odd shape it has. If it's made of ceiling panels you're going to have to be very careful or you're certain to fall through. You might need to climb up the bookshelf until you can grab onto a chair or a table so you can start swinging across along the floor. You might think the best way out is to leave the room and seach for a more sturdy ceiling, but if you'll notice, the bottom of the door is more than three feet from where your feet are right now. You'll have to climb through, and then maybe hang by your arms to reach the ceiling on the other side. Lord help you if the other side is a foyer. You might have to jump, and the whole thing's covered in dust and at an extremely inconvenient angle for walking. Now to get from the top of the stairs to the bottom. Good Lord, who made the stairs this way??? You'll have to climb up using the floor-to-ceiling pipe and jump and grab onto to the railing (thank goodness there is a railing!) and then you'll have to climb, inch by inch, legs dangling down toward the ceiling or woven through the banister railing to make your position more secure. Oh, but you are tired! who ever knew going "down" the stairs would be such a lesson in hardship. If only this were that type of staircase where you could see the stairs in relief on the bottom of each set! Finally, you reach the end of the banister. But what now? The foyer rises below you. There are some five to ten feet of vaulted ceiling and a door before the ceiling from this floor comes in. Look, over there, on the other side of the foyer. There is a "ledge" comprised of a short ceiling right before the door to the outside. You have precisely the time it takes to fall through the y-distance from first-floor floor to the first-floor ceiling-ledge (minus the length of the banister) to cover the x-distance between the banister post and the outside wall. Can you do it? Can you muster that much of a swing after that long and treacherous climb from the third floor? Do it! It's your only chance to figure out what's going on here! AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! That was reallly close. The dust made that ceiling slippery, and you didn't even think about whether or not that ceiling was a flimsy ceiling panel before you jumped, you just jumped! But luckily the ceiling was made of wood backed with stone, because it is part of the fancy entrance way into the building. You can jump for the door handle, but you're going to need some leverage so that you can push the handle up while you're hanging from it, because it's one of those doors you see when you exit public buildings with the bar handle that goes all the way across the door width-wise. And you have to push it, which isn't easy either considering you don't have any floor to push off of. Maybe you can swing back and get it all done at once. Ready? Oops. You forgot about what I said about not going outside. goodbye... 5 Comments. lol. That wouldn't be nearly as fun in my apartment. There's plenty of fixtures on my ceiling for me to pull myself to where i'd want to get to. Going outside however - now that would be the intresting part. I live on the first floor of my apartment complex so I have the walkway of upstairs right above my door. I could use that to get my berings and then LEAP to different treas, cars, signs, or diffrent ledges of the building. I vote for outside. Far more of a challenge. :) » Helena on 2006-12-14 08:07:46 dude i do that a lot! i never imagine outside, though, im scared of 12 mile heights » middaymoon on 2006-12-14 10:16:32 finding neverland is amazing. Kate Winslet is nothing short of being one of the most inspiring women (not related) in my life. Well, the characters she plays at least. I've recently been on a peter pan kick. It could be for a score of reasons - but in any case since the holidays are upon us I'm thinking of diving into the book. » Helena on 2006-12-14 10:29:40 btw what's the name of that carol? Ya know, just in case I should want to know the rest of it, lol. And thank you. You have no idea. :) » Helena on 2006-12-14 10:36:14 Let's talk on this question.
