i was saddened by the changing colors of the leaves on the trees, that took the place of water where a river once ran.
it made it worse to realize that my parents were gone on holiday again and as i listened to Beirut"s beautiful acquaintance with Oaxaca's sound, it made me wish i would have gone with them.
I dont think i am a the level of happiness i wish to be at, i am always on a timed schedule and i feel that life is quickly passing by and i dont even have time to stop and enjoy it.
i thought about a trip to portland for the winter but i realized that this could be the last year i get to travel for quite some time, and even though a ticket to paris is cheaper than usual i dont think i can bear the expense of an overseas voyage at this time.
So i will go back to Oaxaca, a city i find more beautiful than paris, warm, loving, markets filled with more colors than a rainbow, stone roads,old women fighting to get your attention to eat at their counter, tradition.
overall beauty
