So yes. My life. It's, well, moving along.. and I'm just gliding with it like a small raft afloat on a lazy river of endless events, moments, and decisions.

When I stop... it's only to reflect upon the small pebbles that are my memories and my dreams.

Sometimes, I lay on the raft and face the future of the journey head on.

But most of the time.. I just lay on my back and glide through my experiences with an almost uncaring sense of things.

Until.... I stop.

It's happened..

Something so big, and so amazing has caused my life to jolt to a stop suddenly.

What is it? Who knows... but it's great!! And then...

It's over.

Snap. Just like that. Gone.

I glide along endlessly until my next big rock of happiness stops me... will it finally be the one to stop my floating? I hope so.

Because I'm burned, tired, and hungry.

Will you be my rock?

Water....

I don't drink because I'm thirsty....

I drink because I like the feeling of it

I like the way the water slides down my soft tongue into my even more fragile throat

I also like the way it conforms to my tongue it rolls around and molds to me

The coldness feels good

I can feel it ice it's way down my neck and into my body where it makes me shiver slightly

Also, I like to wait until the glass is almost empty and let the last little droplets roll down the side of the glass and onto the tip of my tongue....

I let it rest there for a moment.... and then I engulf it with my own oral moisture so that it disappears into my own ocean....

Sadly.. I look into the empty glass.... I shrug

Then, I get some more water...
