| | sadly, I am realizing what a gift to be normal. normal enough to live life independently. normal enough that people can treat you like the majority of the rest of the people they come into contact with.
everyday we have the opportunity to re-create our future. living into that future greatly impacts our attitudes and behaviors today. 8 months ago, I was moving to kansas in may. maybe buy a house, hopefully fall in love.
4 months ago, I was going to get an internship that may or may not have anything to do with my studies or ultimate passion. It was going to be far away. and alone. Like utah, or south africa.
2 months ago I wanted to spend an extended period of time in solitude. to take that time to "process" my life from the begining to the present. I would teach myself an instrument, learn a trade. swim. run. sleep. think. read. and reread.
1 month ago, I figured I would start a co-op in long beach with my roommates, invest in building a community with gardens and graffitti, and start the long-time dreamt of restaurant.
this week I thought I would go on tour. take joeline, my bike, and some simple music. meet people on the road, see family in michigan, hike the trail in canada, see the east coast, learn to play music in the south, and learn all I can about getting my nourishment from the dirt.
each future I create, changes the present. each present I create changes my future.
