Gotta start somewhere...


I'm sitting in my gray cubicle staring into the corner as I have no windows and thinking, "How did I get here..." To start, I have to stare at the corner because I was informed that only managers can position themselves to look out from the opening of their cubes. Like royalty sitting above their subjects staring down upon them as inferior creatures. I am an inferior creature? There is nothing holding me to this place I call work... Nothing keeping me in this town I call home... Nothing grounding me to this state where almost 10% of my pay is taken for taxes. It's a wonder that with nothing holding me down, why I haven't just floated off into space and simply disappeared. I've been toying with the idea of selling off all my "things" just things that I really do not have any sort of attachment to.
You can never get enough of what you don't
need to make you happy. - Eric Hoffer
Selling it all and just going... To go anywhere I want! Live in Hawaii in a hut and visit with people on their vacations. Write about the smell of the salt air and the taste of the sea on my lips as I awake from a perfect slumber with dreams of open skies and a cloudless future. Running the Honolulu marathon along Waikiki Beach, up and around Diamond Head and the Koko Head volcanic craters. Hiking through Poipu and sitting in the shade along Hanalei Bay watching the waves crash against the shore... But for now... I will sit in my gray cubicle and imagine what that life could be.
