Cool Relax

Cool out and relax. That is precisely what I did this weekend, no extended travels, no partying...just quality time spent with me, myself and I. Yesterday I took a quick train ride to Himeji to pick up 2 track suits and a watch that I've been needing for a while now. Today felt like I did diddly squat and I loved it. I went to bed after talking to Presto on the phone around 2:30-2:45am, which led me to waking up at high noon today. I rented some movies and watched 2 out of 3 on the couch. Made a quick run to the grocery for some milk, came back home and listened to music.

At this moment I've just finished going through some poems that I've written in the last couple of months and I'm in a sharing mood. Enjoy and please give your feedback...I wrote this about 2 weeks before coming to Japan.

Peace of Mind

My thoughts are random, scattered yet focused on the future.
I'm laying the groundwork in my mind for the path that
I will soon take; faith revolving around something much bigger than fate.
My eye is on the sparrow whose wings
are stretched out and ready for flight toward new sights, sounds,
feelings and smells.
Fear is the last thing on my mind, the unknown excites my senses
as time drifts closer toward Pacific skies.
Time is soon to be the reciprocal of what I have grown accustomed to,
I am not starting anew, but embarking on a continuing journey through life.
Fulfilling dreams and aspirations that were once memories of
what ifs and maybes in my psyche.
I strive for contentment and continued
growth...a piece of mine...peace of mind
