Yes friends, I'm back. It's always so strange to return, and the moment your back you forget the fact that this isn't where you've been all along. If that makes any sense. This week-and-a-half has been amazing. Possibly the best of the entire summer, some of it the best this year has had to offer. And yet at the same time it's all been such an odd dream. Life at it's truest, and yet not at all like my life. One beautiful, odd, adventurous, laid back, confusing, clarifying, day dream. And now it feels like waking up from that dream. The memory of it lingers, but with each passing moment I begin to question more and more whether it ever actually happened. But now I'm awake, or waking up. Breaking free from this dreamy limbo and re-entering what they call "life". Well soon life will begin again. In only a matter of days. Responsibility, schedules, due dates, early mornings, "I don't have time" will become a part of my every day. And it's frightening and thrilling at the same time. I'm ready to make myself useful again. Ready to actually feel accomplished at the end of the day. I'm not sure I'm ready to give up my flexibility and my day dreams. Yes friends here it is. Life ends, and life begins. It's time to open my eyes, even though all is not yet clear. It's time to relearn the use of "alarm clock". Back in the saddle again.
