i like sitting on my front porch at two in the morning.
it feels so empty inside of the house, but outside i feel like i'm engaging with life or something.
and i like thinking about how i will be living in the back of van in a campground in lake george, new york here in about two and a half weeks.
i like those kinds of thoughts a lot.
i like the word "leaving".
it's a double-edged sword. it first severs you from something, but at the same time brings you to something else.
i like the thought of being brought to something else.
there's a life pusling through my veins. a craving, a longing, the spirit of adventure. it drives my heart to beat. i breathe oxygen to fuel it. it's in my blood.
thank god, because i see his hand in all of this.

"It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power." ~Alan Cohen
