aware

There�s like this tide, a really big one, that dictates time. It sets the deadlines and the course of progress and it makes you trudge along. And I�m struggling against it, holding steadfast, defying the dates by not letting the calendar blur to one indistinguishable mess in my mind. I want to be so alive, always striving for this sanguinity. I�m real, and I�m here. I want to bead and laugh really hard and I want to ski and have the sweetest dreams ever, but I�ll take what I can get, and what I can give.
"The aim of life is to live and to live means to be joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware." -Henry Miller
