It Feels Like Fall Today

It Feels Like Fall Today

July 28, 2007

It feels like fall today. The sun has that warm glow. The wind, breezy, moving romantically. Every year, without fail, fall touches my soul. I experience suppressed emotions, thoughts, and sensations I repressed through the year. More reminiscent than ever; I yearn for the early days of childhood. When things were simple—life consisted of play, friends and school.

Newly 24, I find adulthood extremely difficult. Already considered wise for my years, I have been out of college merely 18 months and I have aged eighteen years. Bills, career, work, marriage, friendship, family all uncompromisingly trip through my mind.

Hustler by nature, warrior by birth. When will the struggle stop? When will it pay off? These games, my hardwork. My soul aches, unrewarded; filled with angst. It feels like winter today.
