Matchstick Men

So the year is coming to an end and I suppose some reflections is called for. It has been an interesting year. One of a great loss, one of a great gain of hair (both on my head and face).

It was a time for traveling alone and making efforts to find myself only to realize that all that I want is a companion to share these experiences with. I saw more than I ever imagined as I drove across the country. I experienced isolation and solitude in these states and woke up to new suns and retired to an ever changing sky.

I finished my MS degree and now begin a life free of the shackles of student living. I found a new sense of peace in the present and am learning to appreciate everything and everyone. Not only was this a year of physical movement but also of the mind. A year spent wrapped up in books.

Where will the new year take me I do not know. Personally, I try not to think about it too much. Just let the current of life carry me from place to place, from person to person. It is no use fighting fate, it eventually wear out the body.

And with those few words
my mind ignited like that!
Burning with ideas, memories and love
Your words the flame that set it off
My love continues to burn...
