Blips in the road
Apr. 20th, 2002 12:52 pmHere is my new theory on life, yeah yeah i'm just full of theory I know get over it :-)
So lets for the moment say that life is a road, corny and over used but it serves my purpose. If life is a road then as you go along it things happen that change your path. sometimes you meet people and that moment is a turning point, they become the best friend you didn't realize you were missing, or just that friend to cry to at all odd hours of the night. and even if you drift something remains. when you're rich and famous you still plan to finance her first renaissance bed and breakfast! if she'll let you ;-) (chrissy) or you can still sit down and watch a movie and not watch the movie but just talk about EVERYING from college to boys to remembering sailing trips and seventh grade (kate) or you hope you never drift from then because they're the most fun person to drive around blasting strange music with (kevin) these are just a tiny portion of the people who have entered into my life and changed me and my road,they've helped me become me. And there are events that do that too, or at least become markers, graduation, birthdays etc.
and then, this is where my theory gets interesting so yay for those of you who stuck around for it. then there are moments that are "blips" in the road. where you're not really on your road your in some timeless spaceless bubble. where you meet someone and you think they have the potential of being one of those great friends and then nothing happens. you spend one night talking one night of feeling strangely close to someone you've only just met, and you could stay like that happily for many more hours, but you can't. The real world walks into the room and you're shoved off the edge and it's time to leave, and walk back to your room, and the moments gone. there was a blip in your road an amazing moment that just seems to become isolated, as into the woods says "just a moment one peculiar passing moment, Must it all be either less or more,Either plain or grand?Is it always "or"?Is it never "and"?That's what woods are for:For those moments in the woods..." Actually I could quote that whole damn song it fits so well here. anyway I think i'm in post-blip over analysis mode, and i wonder why do things become blips instead of friendships? must things be that way? "just let the moment go, don't forget it for a moment though" I guess blips are the people who for some reason it just didn't happen with yet will always still have a special place, a floor to crash on or a shoulder to lean on, and yet you wonder why are they blips
