Dawn showers
There is something magical about a moment you share with only yourself. There are no witnesses and the only sound to keep your company is the coming and going of night time traffic and your own breathing. I woke up to the sound of running water at 4.45 this morning. After doing the mundane,checking for leaky faucets and such, I looked out my balcony. The only thing visible through the downpour were twinkling lights of a faraway traffic light that was stuck on yellow, like they normally are that late. Something made me step out despite the chill in the air, my lack of warm clothing and yes even my insane fear of making the slightest rustle when the kids are asleep.
I'm glad I threw caution to the wind this time. For the first time in my life I was comfortable with my own company and watching the world showering at the crack of dawn filled me with an inspiration that only a loner can truly understand. Yes there are those of us that are essentially supposed to be alone yet we insist on seeking company. But that's a story for another time. So greetings if you are reading this and stay aboard if you have ever felt like you do not belong anywhere but within your own head. Over and Out!
