Can I offer you some tea?
Back to reality. I had forgotten for one shining, glimmering moment. How quickly things can change. I can't help but feel how vicerally I experience things since September 11th, how my life changed on that day in so many ways stretching out to the horizon and I guess I continue stumbling along to discover them. I can't even look at the news, and I feel ill when I sit down to read the paper. It has nothing to do with body count or the effectiveness of the attack, only the shallowness of the second that it took to happen. The look on people's faces as they stand, bereft, looking at what only a moment ago had been familiar and now is surreal.
I guess I have been a little busy since May, but it would have been nice if I had written at least one journal entry while I was gone. Too late now.
Thailand was so incredibly beautiful and our tour guide Mam was just lovely. We met travelers from every continent, rolling around the world with us. It will probably be the best vacation of my entire life. One day I'll have to put up a picture of me on the longboat from the River Kwai Resotel- my new favorite place on earth. If I ever need to hide away from the world in a more concrete way, I know where to go.
If you are reading this, I wish you peace.
