This morning is bright...almost glaring. The swing of things is picking up momentum, and things are rapidly needing to be done. There are students to attend to, papers to write, plans to make, coffees to drink. The complexities of life never cease to amaze me. For instance, how so many thoughts can exist in my brain at once and not pull in their independent directions and cause my head to explode. No, I can hold sorrow for my friend who's mother is having dangerous surgery, right along side excitement over buying an important, special dress. I can exist with the feelings of sympathy for my sister, who's computer died on her right before finals, and a superficial appreciation for yellow diamonds, and love, and doubt, and a regina spektor song, all sloshing around inside me. And I don't die. I don't even go crazy. I live....this is what it means to live.
On this monday morning, I am existing in the tension of all the facets of my life and the thoughts related to it. So many thoughts.
