Perspective

10/08/16

I’d say this is my 4th or 5th journal.

The others have been filled, replaced, lost, or burned.

My last two journals I burned and then I threw them into a river. But most have been read plenty. I wonder what will become of this one.

Right now, my eyes hurt, my head hurts, I am tired and sitting in the Starbucks that is connected to Chapters.

There are children ordering their drinks and I am wondering what will become of them. What or who will shatter their worlds, how long do they have left of oblivion before the world reveals itself to them, how much longer do they have to believe in fairy tales? Before they turn to escapes…

What will it be?

You leave your job. You live in the city now, you left Summit Rd. You left that town. A year later, you’re sitting in Starbucks thanking God for the life you have created for yourself. It gets better before it gets worse before it becomes the best.

Get through this, and just wait. Because this is worth it.

The things you are going through need to happen in order for you to get here.
