Walk for miles

The gentle breeze and giggles from the children remind me to slow down and smile. 

"The meanest thing you ever did is come around"

I miss my dog. I've been in Charlotte for a few days now and I haven't even seen him. He's so close!!!!

My least favorite feeling in the world:
    Leaving one place, arriving at another, and feeling like you've been gone for years.
I've only been gone for a few days, but I feel like I never left Charlotte. I guess it's a little bittersweet. It's nice to come back and feel like you were never gone, but then "home" feels so.... fake. As if it's something I created in my head to dream about at night.

    The goodbye wasn't enough. Although, I'm still debating whether that's a good thing or not. The fact that the two of us played it off as "no big deal" made it easier to let go of him and turn around. Now, it leaves me feeling a little empty and unsatisfied. It's too late to change anything now. I'll just have to wait four months to see him and hope things feel like they never changed.
     It's never the same when all you have is letters/emails while you're gone.

"Never known the loving of a man but it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand"

None of my goodbyes were satisfactory. I didn't even get to say bye to some people. Maybe that's where the incomplete feeling comes from......


It's beautiful outside. Instead of sitting here trying to force something that doesn't want to be shared, I think I might enjoy the breeze. Sit like a dog and try to identify the smells. You know, there really are some beautiful smells we never notice. We're always too busy.....

Just do me one favor. Take all of your pointless negative energy and put it to some good use. Think about the amazing things you could do if you turned that into positive energy.
