it is all

it is only when you have the time to look back at everything that you've accomplished that you notice the true achievements.

my first college class ended tonight and looking back over this first semester* (*not entirely finished yet), I can already see how much I've changed for the better. I feel more me, I have more friends and I'm more informed about the world.

dipping my toes into something different--
sailing on the sea alone,
playing silly mind games with silly tones.

sunup and sundown,
showup and falldown.

the water's a callin'.
