Waking Up and Wishing
I woke up this morning, after a dream filled nights sleep, completely restless. My apartment smells like bacon and Mike is gone. I performed my normal morning pattern of email, facebook, and scanning the news. I got up to wander around my apartment and stopped to look out my kitchen window. It’s a beautiful fall day. The tree outside my window has lost most of its leaves as the wind blows them around on the ground. I watched the mail man as he put the mail in my buildings boxes. As he finished, I realized that my restlessness was due in part to my desire for something to happen. I would be happy with anything really. I think I have been living like this for a few weeks now. Living each moment hoping something will happen in the next. Something exciting. Something worth being happy for. I suppose this moment is coming to an end. I hope something happens in the next…
