Sometimes it seems like everyone around me is perfectly happy with their ordinary lives and I’m the only one swimming upstream, constantly searching for something more.
I can barely even identify what that is. Just more. Some missing more.
The problem with swimming upstream all the time, though, is that it can start to feel like one of those infinity pools. You burn a lot of calories, but you don’t go anywhere.
Sometimes I just want to stand in the middle of the stream an scream. I’ve got stories to tell. I’ve got multitudes inside me, you know? I’ve got things to do that I can’t even identify yet.
