in the corner of your eye.
it's only been 3 days, and i've already returned to you. that's love, right?
no, that's just me being incandescently happy and inspired as of lately.
don't be mistaken, though, i do love you, a lot :)
Aside from your sweet, sweet love and your opulent way of being my favorite thing to behold, i'm constantly inspired by an others' thoughts and ideas. the constant Socratic battle between my beliefs and views in line with someone else's is so riveting and creatively moving that it is perhaps my favorite sensation next to sneezing. i love a good sneeze. Jason Mraz, for many years, has been far more than just a musician that i accredit the soundtrack of my life during most of my teenage maturing to, but he is also a great thinker. He sees things in a similar light as i do, but for some reason his suave - and at the same time - quirky aura renders his sight all the more luminous compared to mine. He is the salt to a bland dish.
I watched a video, recently.
The man in the video was witness to a double-rainbow. And while the fascination we have all held with rainbows may have died when we reached our teens because we were suddenly all too cool for them, this man was drawn deep into appreciation.
I'm almost positive time travel was, for one moment, successful and sent him back to his childhood.
Wouldn't the world be a far better place if we could all remind ourselves to stop and smell the roses? If we could all bottle up our childhood enthusiasm and release it out onto current daily events and happenings as if we were so excited that we must be staring at triple, or even quadruple rainbows? If we could remind ourselves that material things and diamonds and rings were things that issued us a false sort of appreciation? What have we done? We have become so demanding and selfish that we never appreciate ANYTHING anymore. We never appreciate our loved ones until something happens. Come to think of it, we never appreciate anything or anyone until misfortune comes into play. We are all inherently selfish, but i believe happiness should be simple and born of the simplest of things. Today is my 5th birthday, and you are my rainbow.
My life has become so impetuously routine. Allow me to refine.
Lately, i've been going to bed with the thought of not knowing what my dawn's plans are. In other words, I go to bed with no plans for the next day. Yet, every day i always find myself with something to do. And then i wonder where the time has gone.
I remind myself daily of my life commitment towards doing something differently. Drinking water or holding my phone while switching off daily between which extremity will do the job is about as different as it gets. But i make sure to throw in a new way of doing everyday tasks as often as i can. ANYWAY, my life is constantly boring. Does it make any sense? Regardless of the planned outings, i make it a point to take a breath in of my surroundings and to not let the dog out on comings and goings through the door.
I hope you've been good to yourself. I know i've told you that before, but i must reiterate as often as i can.
You are remarkable and must be handled with care. The next stranger you meet, be sure to tell them your from the postal service - Handle With Care ;)
Be on the lookout for rainbows, sweets.
They're everywhere as long as your open to seeing them.
