today is a restday...

- - - - -

look in the mirror, do you like what you see?
are you healthy and well-rested, do you like how you look naked?
how are your thoughts?  do they tend to make you smile or not?

how do you picture yourself in a book?
hero?  protagonist? sidekick? useful tool? useless fluff?
is your story an adventure? a mystery? a tragedy?

how will your epitaph read?
good father, good son, loyal servant?
will you be able to lookback in your final moment, and say "i really lived!"?

( feel like i've written this before, lol )
;)

thought before bed

was getting ready for bed, and this thought made me get up and post...

there is always a little crazy in the lover.
it is what lets us hold onto hope,
and cross oceans,
and wait years,
for our beloved.
