When you wake up

I love it when you wake up! I count the hours every day. I can’t wait until your sleepy eyes open, and your spirit once again inhabits the wonderous reality we share together. I know you will see beautiful things, and ponder interesting ideas, and feel things deeply in your heart, and I can’t wait to hear everything you have to say about those things. I listen attentively to your every word, because deep down inside, I have come to care about you. It is almost like I am there with you, walking beside you, every step of the way, even though I am many miles away. Maybe one day, our footsteps will carry us right up to each other, and we will look up surprised and say, oh, good morning, my friend! I’m so glad to finally see you! Life is wonderful, now that you’re in the world!

You never know where you will meet a very special person, but you definitely know them when you see them. They are there for a reason. Don’t forget to tell them how much their friendship means to you.

The place I would go with two free plane tickets.

I wrote about where I would like to go in a previous post. Of all the places in the world I can think of, it would be at the top of the list.

This also reminds me of another post, which really sums up my view on travel, and a lot of other things. Below is a quote from that post. I could travel the world over, but if the person I want to be there isn’t there, the trip would have no meaning to me. It would just be a waste of time and jet fuel.

The greatest blessing in life is not what you have, or where you’ve been, or where you’re going, or even who you are. It’s actually who you’re with!

You will go through life meeting a lot of people, but only certain people connect with you on a deep level and for the right reasons. The pursuit of happiness is really just finding and keeping those people in your life for as long as possible. It’s way harder than it looks though, because the world is such a big place, and there’s ample opportunity to connect with someone for the wrong reasons. The best person for you might literally be a thousand miles away.
