I am spiritually, physically, and emotionally SATISFIED for the first time in a long while and it feels disoriented but at the same time amazingly free.

I AM SATISFIED. although I am quite hungry at the moment

Today I did something I never had a chance to do as a kid and it was such an ADRENALINE rush... strange for something so simple but I was a kid again.

I flew a kite while at a service event... I flew a kite, shriek and ran around like a 5 years old in front of a crowd of people (little children and their parents) and did not care at all. I flew a kite and it was therapeutic.

My fellow "brothers" looked on and laughed at me.. I invited them to join me but they all sat and agreed that they were too old to fly kites. I shriek, laughed and ran around. My kite went so high people stopped to take pictures and admit they don't know how to fly a kite.


I flew a kite and I am happy.

Something so simple but so pure in joy and wonderful, I stayed back to fly my kite when everyone left after the day was over. I can still feel the kite in my hand struggling to free itself from the strings that attached it to my hands, it flew high yet still held down to the earth. My kite did not want to come down when I wheeled it in, it fought against the wind and against my hands to fly farther and higher. I flew a kite for the first time in my life and I felt free.

I grew up at 21 years old and I enjoyed doing an activity that a 6 years old wasn't interested in, I grew up without knowing what I missed as a child, the joy of staring at a piece of plastic flapping in the wind.

Today I flew a kite and tucked it away in my trunk because on Tuesday I will go to the beach and return to my childhood for a short while.
