In Motion

Life moves around all of us and time will not wait for anyone. When I sit and look at the people around, I wonder what they wish for. Do they wish to be young again? Or are they just waiting for the inevitable demise. It saddens me that I won't be a kid again. I'll never have the same metabolism, the energy, or dreams again. Some things I'll never be able to attempt, like professional sports, training to become an astronaut, or any other pipe dream. Sometimes I think to accept my fate and wait to die, but then I know I've done pretty well this far. I've met many amazing people, I've been able to study under brilliant teachers and I've butted heads with great minds. I think if I didn't wake up tomorrow, I wouldn't be all that upset. Sure, I won't see my loved ones again, but in my mind I'd have a nice resume to present for my epitaph. Don't worry though, the last thing I want to do is not have a tomorrow. I'll keep on keeping on, and you should as well.

Watch the world, take it with a grain a salt. Join the world bring the rest of the salt.

Summer.

Here we have summer in full swing. the grass is dying around me, the rain is falling but the two never meet. I never got this concept and will probably never. I toast to the wonder that summer brings all of us. We have easier schedules, some of our looking into the next parts of our lives, and for other they're trying to figure out what went wrong. For the ladder, time will never stop, your heart will continue beating and the sun will rise again tomorrow. if metaphor is not your forte, life goes on. There is no reason to wish for something when patience rewards its takers. I encourage you that your time will arrive and the sun will only shine on you.
It's hard to think that it's been almost seven months since the 2007 Gregorian calendar began. So much has taken place, in not only my life but those close to me. Friends are graduating from college, others are traveling the world. I'll be here for now. I'll have my moment in the sun, but I wont try and hold on, I'll probably get burned.
Sometimes I watch the people as they pass by and wonder what their story is. Everyone has a story to tell, and are looking for an ear. What is your story going to consist of, and who the hell is going to want to listen to it. If you stand in front of a room full of zealots, sure they'll listen, but until that day arises, keep writing your story and be sure you have the facts right.

Let's make it easier on each other, take a second before reacting.
