Sis told me to write more. So on the eve of a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Africa, some ramblings:
I’ve read the advice for living a full life – to travel, to
try new and dangerous things, to push beyond your own comfort zone.
And I’ve followed that advice, but never heard
them speaking to my soul.
Instead I find myself wanting to contract my life to enjoy
the simple pleasures within my immediate reach.
With those I love, to hold them, speak deeply, love and laugh, and
waste no time in frustration.
If the
rest of my days were spent in such rewarding simplicity, I’d be drunkenly rich
and want nothing further from life.
