Long way coming

That which consumed me for a long while now rests in some dusty mental closet. 

I don’t know what I’m doing, or what I want. I have to re-evaluate... I’ve lost sight of all that I’ve wanted for myself, and what I want to come from me for others. It is the Buddhist concept of “impermanence,” that I’ve so pounded into my brain… maybe it’s the battery of my faults, maybe some real life insecurity, maybe a combination.
My motorcycle has been my prayer vehicle. Its also about my only time alone. I come back home from whatever little ride and I’m refreshed...
I feel like an empty house. Not empty like a receiving vessel, but like something worn, battered by the earth, a little charred. An old house with dark, vacant windows and paint almost completely peeled.


I am almost surprised to feel like I've come from it. Windows with warm light instead of emptiness. Time heals. Will say that I am eager to have my motorcycle up and running again this Spring.
