why should I feel lonely?
is not our planet in the milky way?
a quick hello. a quick i know i’ve been not writing or posting this week and i’m sorry for the lapse but i needed to take some time. i needed to go to the beach to run away from the waves that thunder their way onto the shore like i am five years old again. i needed to inhale and devour and delight in pastrami stuffed between two buttery slices of bread with melted sharp cheddar and crisply shredded iceberg lettuce. i needed to feel my legs sore and heavy from a steep incline under the white hot october sun. i needed to sweat from doing too many loads of laundry because the joy of sleeping on newly washed sheets can heal anything. i needed to take time to pull out everything from my closets to sort, organize, fold and put away with intention and care. i needed to take time to organize my tins of tinned fish and my half emptied bags and boxes of dried pasta and throw away boxes of stale frosted mini wheats from depression’s past. i needed to go to the grocery store at the end of each day to pick out things that taste good to me or things i was really missing the taste of (spicy hummus, persian cucumbers, yogurt, granola, braised beans, good honey, warmed up whole wheat pita, mouth puckering fennel sauerkraut). i just needed to spend time with life and enjoy it without pouring my heart out about it or think about it too much.
i just kind of wanted to exist.
