Perspective

I don't really have much to say. I am a bit tired of talking. I am going to do a bit more listening and meditating for awhile.

I have been reflecting on my life up to this point and I realize it is nearly impossible to have an objective view of past events. I feel like I rewrite things that have happened in an effort to minimize conflict. I hope that does not sound cryptic.

The weather here is changing and it makes me excited. I love cool/cold weather. Coats are my favorite.

I was talking to a friend the other day about having an old soul. She has one as well. I feel that if my outside matched how I felt on the inside I would be knocking on death's door.

Unless something super fun or noteworthy happens in the next 48 hours I will be away until next weekend. It's time for another business trip! It's not to anywhere glamorous, but I will have an opportunity to read, write, and relax.

Goodnight.

Haha, I almost forgot about the title of this post! Whenever I used to get overwhelmed with life I would go to my favorite chain coffee store and sit out on the patio. It sits next to one of the busiest streets in my city and I would see hundreds of cars go by. Each car containing one or more people. People trying to make it through their own journeys. People living, loving, laughing, crying, hurting, rejoicing...just being human.

It helps put things in perspective.
