Today seems a little different than all the rest. My senses feel heightened slightly, my head may split in two and my heart may be dancing right in my chest. There is not much sunshine out, but I am ready and motivated. While this may be normal for some for me I should still be in REM sleep right about now with the off chance I would be up if the sun were shining right in my window. I have this feeling that I have so much to learn. Like there is something I am wrong about or maybe just not quite right about. But that, however, is typical me.....thinking about things then over thinking about things until I have analyzed every situation from every angle and every possible option or method. It doesn't make since to me either....I just know I can suddenly smell all the beauty in this world right from my doorstep. Other peoples sentences and everyday phrases have different meaning today. Well, for this part of the day. Morning is always different from the rest of the day. Morning is slow and easy...time to drink coffee and listen to the birds friendly conversation, even when working morning is a time to collect yourself and the job. Assemble yourself or your work item so that for the rest of the day it or you will be running like a well oiled machine. As the day progresses, any parts of life become more hectic. The corporate people of the world are at the breaking point and somehow it seems to show only in road rage....By this time at work someone will have thrown a wrench into the machine I took care to assemble so meticulously this morning. By evening or nightfall the high pace of humanity has taken its toll on all of us, causing irritability and sloth. This is something some people come face to face with everyday, while others hide it away behind closed doors, which is fine with me because by now I am feeling the strain too and really don't feel like putting up with it from everyone else.....but we do. Thus, ending a cycle that has become all too common in our world. But this day if different. This day the birds will sing until two and lunch hours will be filled with laughter and smiles. People will go home and be kind to their mates and discuss not a single detail of their typical work day. Instead they will enjoy a nice dinner in the yard with the children their love created dancing along to the music our world creates if you stop and listen.....the family dog will lie faithfully on the porch and the cat will not tease. If allowed this will be different than ever before. You may even smell a rose today. I saw something in you, and I know what I saw. It was blindingly bright, but caught such a hold on me that I cannot wriggle away from it's grasp. I have a love that some people search for their whole lives. Some people find it and let it slip away as I have before...That love was reflected to me through you, and in you.
