Here To Stay

I’ve been away for a while, I know. I’ve been down paths I hoped that I would not have to revisit anytime soon, but things have worked out better than I hoped for which brings a smile to my face as I sit here writing, sun blinding me slightly. That same smile I wear at this moment was upside down last week as I asked myself how I managed to stray so far from what I love.

I’m talking about writing. It makes me calm, it gets me excited. It makes my heart race, it smoothens all of the kinks in my head. If absence makes the heart grow fonder, I’ll be forever in love with the wonderful things that happen when pen meets paper, paper meets pen. The longer I stray, the sweeter the reunion. I now understand all of the anxious days laid to rest in the past year. My heart, my mind have been awaiting the return of unbridled imagination, powerful opinion, the possibilities of new windows opening to the world.

So here I am, I’m back, I’m here to stay.
