(no subject)
I'm getting older. Everyone is getting older, even babies and are getting older. But me.. I am getting older, and I have found that I like aging. I like seeing my skin thicken and the sunspots growing darker. I like that my jaw looks more set and my hands are worn and calloused. I'm sure there's a point where I want youth back, when shit starts breaking down and I'm dragging, but I'm not there yet, far far away in fact, like a baby is from wrinkles and calloused hands.
Besides aging I have been spending a lot of thought on old times and the ways we all used to be. All the people that have come and gone. I have found that I can look back through all the moments with all these people and pinpoint times where my dearest friends were incredible, maybe just for moments, but incredible and something to behold none the less. Moments or series of moments where they were more than just kids in the mix of things, kids being kids, but something much much more and important. We are tied together through a web of these moments, interlacing us together in such a way that will endure.
-- not sure what has been compelling me lately, feeling full to the brim of something and whenever it's just something and not this thing or that thing I feel all restless and convinced that clickity-clacking on a keyboard will alchemically convert something into Some Thing that I can grab a hold of and walk around town with. That reminds me, got to take the dog for a walk.
