tide

finally, a large deadline passes. the relief; i understand the word palpable now. i actually felt the release inside and outside of my body. inside my body it felt like endorphins. outside my body it felt like a hard bright light shining and then fading into a soft sunset.

this too shall pass.

i am changing. again. still.

jobs come and go but the elephant in the room stands quietly. "hello? will you please acknowledge me? i am your purpose. sorry, don't mean to put you in any kind of box, this is just the perfect thing for you to do. no worries, if you'd rather do something less enjoyable and less fulfilling for a while, that's cool with us here at Fate Central."

and next week crests in front of me. i can see it sparkle.
