Today I woke up in the strangest mood. I felt very out of place, out of sorts. I felt like an alien in my own bed, my own home, my own office. Later, I became a giddy school girl singing 90s pop music to my roommate. Just giggling. Dancing, doing dishes and singing Destiny's Child Say My Name. Who am I right now?
I am in a missing mood right now.
>>> I miss holding a book in my hand and tucking my self away and getting lost in a story or devouring theology and trying to make my little brain understand such big concepts. I miss turning pages.
>>> I miss taking pictures of things I like. Like family dinners and my friend's smiling faces. White-toothed children, Skies--African skies at that. Roadtrips and random people I don't know but think they would have a great story to tell.
>>> I miss writing things I actually care about. Character development. Fiction. Truth. A simple word that leads to a beautiful slew of imagination. I
>>> I miss my boyfriend. Distance and time is against us. I miss being able to wake up knowing he would be there.
>>>I miss adventure. I feel so tame at the moment. I miss where midnight was a time to go out and explore, go to a 24-hour diner, drink coffee until the wee hours of the morning, then wake up in the morning like I am not sleep deprived.
The list goes on....
Cheers to being an adult, may we never forget what we enjoy and never forget to make time to do it.
With Love,
Samantha e. May
