another reason to live life as my thank you

last week, while a friend and i were working on some things he noticed that my laptop took a while to load up
then today i learned that he and a few other friends have been scheming to add memory to my hard drive to make my computer run faster
and just the mere thought of them thinking up this idea is already more than enough
i am a puddle of mush

i wonder out of all the good things that happen in my life, how many have i never found out about?

there's this man at the motel who comes in pretty regularly, at least twice a week
but the strange thing is that i'd hear a faint high-pitched meowing whenever he was around, and i used to think fack this guy is hiding cats in his facking jacket...
until i realized he was making the noises himself

don't get me wrong, i like weird. quirkiness is quite endearing, but still, i am thankful for this bullet-proof glass between us

walking it

this is my favorite time of year
it started last night and will end 4 months from now
and i love it but i'm scared because i know that i can't ask anything of anyone unless i'm willing to put in just as much
and there is so much to ask for...
i hope i'm strong enough

reminder

What's the biggest challenge?

An all volunteer run network has only one currency to offer our members: sacrifice. When volunteers show up and want to get involved there are no fat paychecks, no recognition awards, no offices overlooking the ocean,
only sacrifice.

i don't mean to be arrogant
but i feel extremely fortunate to be me, and
that when i wake up, this is my amazing life
not that it's all that glorious
i have a very ordinary existence actually
but i think if i could design my life to be whatever i wanted,
this is how it would be.

also, most of the time i feel like a defunct superhero attempting to perform feats beyond my capacity to give
and again and again i am rescued by the very people i'm trying to help.
they save me.
this is a lesson i love learning

"Don't let it end like this. Tell them I said something."
-Last words of Pancho Villa

I am a pencil
ready to write
my life
-Jessica, 4th grade

I Open My Eyes
Take The Crusts Out
Stretch Myself And Check (If I Haven’t)
Returned Again And Everything Is Okay
Still There Is Something Missing
Like All The Walls
-Staralfur, Sigur Ros
