"Some of them are yes," he said nodding his head. "But some I have, like talking to the animals or meet those whom seek me, are routins I enjoy quite much. It must be hard avoiding them, they have a way of sneeking up on you. So I take it you travel alot then?" he asked.

“It is quite easy to escape from routines. You just have to make sure, your not in the same place to long. I could not be a Tavern Owner, the routines would drive me utterly insane. Yes, I am quite a traveller, I migrate from place to place, quite a lot. Being stuck in one place, and being isolated in the world, is not something I enjoy. I barely stay in one place a week.”
She looked over to the bird, “This fellow, I only meet when I travel through here. Yet, he is seemingly the only companion I have enjoyed having about, this far.”

"I understand. It is a good thing that you don't do what you don't wont to do." he said, "Well, animals are great companions. I should know, I spend most my time learning about them, talking to them and understand them. I am glad for you have a commpanion you enjoy."

Bridie nodded, “As am I. Life would be boring, doing things one did not enjoy.”
She listened as the wizard spoke, about animals being quite good companions. He would know, he had spent much of his time on Arda with them, as she had heard gossips say. She nodded, “True. However, I do not always have him as a companion on my travels, so I cannot say he bores me. Then again, perhaps I could, if he travelled with me all the time I daresay I could. One can always grow bored of a constant companion, and one always need time alone.”

"Yes that is true, time alone gives you space to think. But I believe that all people need friends. Animal or human." he said.

“Friends I can live without, family I can live without. I am used to being alone, for me that is life. I prefer solitude, and absolutely hate when people try to run my life. I alone know what I need, want and how I can survive. I do not need others to say I am going about it all wrong,” she sighed and sat down. She was prepared for quite a long conversation now.
Having not been in the mood for company before, she found this was quite amusing. She was even finding out things about herself. Things she had not really believed. But if you said these things, and they came from your own mouth, than you must believe them. They came straight from you, therefore you were not lying.

"So you only see friends and family as people who control your life?" he asked, looking at her with interest. "They can also help you, and give you good advise that you had not thought of yourself." he added.
He followed her lead, and sat down on a stone next to the mighty three.

Bridie nodded to his words, to show she was listening, “I see everyone around me, as people trying to control every aspect of me. There are always people who look down at me and pity me and there are always others who want to be like me. People want others to fit in, what they call normal, without even considering what that person truly wants for themselves. That is why, there will always be war, and dis-like between people. If they want to give advice, find someone who needs it. Not someone who is quite capable of taking care of themselves. They think just because I don’t have a home, or an occupation I am poor and useless. But, if they lived one day in my shoes, they would see that I do have a home, I do have an occupation and I make this world something. Not everyone in this world wants to be like everyone else.”
She watched at him, as he sat on a rock, and she took a deep breath, “To be normal is to be governed by everyone around you. That is why, I do not wish to be in one place too long, even though I my journey back there from time to time.”

He listened to every word she spoke. He was surprised that she shared her thoughts with him, but he was also glad. She was an interesting human.
"Yes, you have a good point," he said thoughtfully. "But what is normal? I believe that all people are different, in some way. Normal, is just a word put on what seems to be the right thing to do. But really there are very few people in the world that is 'normal'. The mane difference between people like you, and most people, is that most people just think of making there dreams come true, and you just do it."

Bridie nodded, “Normal is to be like everyone else. Have a home, a family, food on the table every night, a job. I don’t have all those things. Nor do I have dreams. Why set dreams, when most are so obnoxious and one would know they would never reach it. I think people should just enjoy life, and not spend their time day dreaming on what they want.”
She sat back, and looked up to the sky, ‘If only people would stop trying to reach they sky. Life has no limits, take it bit by bit. Don’t focus on one thing, but focus on everything. You might never get those dreams, but you’ll still have life. Life is one of the most precious things in this world, and people throw it away for granted, by wasting their time on pointless dreams.”

"I belive is important to dream, but not of the impossible. I agree that people should enjoy the life they have a bit more. But I also think that it is important to have a goal in life. If it starting a family, see most of the world, or become lorn in one or many subjects." he said.

Bridie shrugged, “To me dreams are pointless. Any dream I once had was way out of my reach. So I am sitting back and enjoying each day as it comes along, with no goal set in front of me. It is less stressful that way too.”
The way people carried on about doing this and that in their future, was unbelievable. Half of them never even were able to do, what they had planned in their younger years. That was especially if you were married off by your parents. Something Bridie would never have to deal with. Marriage.

"I am glad you like living like that. But to dream is not pointless, at least not for some people. Think of a mother and wife. He dream may be that her children will do well, and be able to take care of her and her husband. That may be the thing that gets her thru the day."

Bridie just nodded, and pulled a small piece of grass from the ground. She raised it to her mouth, and chewed on it, as she listened. Dreams seemed pointless to her. You were in a win or die situation. You might achieve them after a lot of hard work, but then again you may fail, utterly.
“Well if that gets her through the day, then so be it. It wouldn’t help me. I don’t really take charity, nor let anyone do anything for me. I’d rather do everything I needed myself. That way, I am not committed to anyone and I’m free to be me, who I want to be. Not what anyone else wants me to be.”

"That is one of the grate things about being independent, and don't depend on others to make it. You can be what you wont to be." he said simply.
