Often I hike on high trails along a nearby mountainside. The other day, I was hiking along in an interesting kind of mood when I looked far down below me at the many houses in a small valley area, and I felt like scoffing.
"What kind fool builds their cities in totally unprotected valleys!?!" I thought to myself!
"Surely they must realize how dangerous it is. Then it occured to me, they must live in a time of unparalelled peace and prosperity to even consider a stunt like that! Even those small peaks, as low as they are, would offer at least some protection from invasion and attack, and would be the logical place to build, but instead they have actually built their homes in the very depths of the valley! Unbelievable!"
Then I shook my head and remembered building in the valleys is normal and everyone does it. Or least that is what they do here.

I think it's great that you're getting more "bleedthrough" into waking time. Enough of this and the kind of thing you end up thinking about most the time is very different than whatever most people are probably thinking about.
