every now and again i think back to the simpler times in my life. when i was a child, i had few responsibilities and fewer worries. come to think of it, i may not have had that many thoughts. there wasn't so much to question, to doubt, to fear. i could just trust, and believe. i would never give up the many things that i have learned with age, and i'd like to channel the power to find such peace again.
in the next few months, i think life will both simplify and complicate itself. graduating is going to be a simplification. it is a clean end to a chapter in my life. as much as i will miss the familiar places and faces, i do not regret my decision to move forward. going to a new school is going to be interesting. calling it a complication sounds like it is going to be a negative experience. i don't believe that, so i can't categorize it in that way. but, i do think i'll face many new challenges that will force me to re-examine my motivations, my skills, and my choices. but, i'm honestly looking forward to being rustled a bit. life would be boring without moments or people that literally smack us across the face and say, "wake up and live".
if i could be an object, i'd be a drop of water. then i could experience so many things. i could be still and frozen, caught in an icy tableau. i could be rain or river. i could be a cloud. it would be beautiful. despite the many possibilities, i think water would be simple not complicated.
what would you be?

The Idea of being something that was not sentient probably would have never crossed my mind. That being said I still think I would go with a bird and its freedom to go anywhere.
