Donna-Michelle St Bernard - Thought # 1 - First Thought Ever

My name is Donna-Michelle St. Bernard and this is my first thought.  

Ever.

This is the very first thought that I have ever had.

I mean, obviously I've had thoughts before

but I was asked to introduce myself in that way – 

this is my first thought – 

and I'm not a liar 

so I threw away everything that I ever knew before

and I thought to myself, 

"well if it was true before and I knew it before, 

then it is true still and I will surely come to know it again"

They say that the joy is in the learning so I will have that twice, 

the learning.  

I will get two times to know 

the thing that I thought that I knew 

before I thought that they told me to throw it away, 

though now I think that maybe nobody said that 

but it's too late.  

It's all gone.  

And this is my first thought, 

and I haven't really thought anything yet 

so I'd better get started thinking.  

What am I good for.  

That's my first thought. 

What am I good for. 

I didn't say it would be a complete thought.

What good what that be?  // (music credit: Days by Everest Media)
