last night

a lot of people, including myself, get so wrapped up in themselves that they forget everything around them actually exists sometimes. never been inside anybody else's head but i know that if something's up, my mind races. for example, it's so easy to just drive to the store and completely forget anything you may have seen from being so fully consumed by thought. if you're not careful, you can live your entire life like this. last week, taking the train into at 7am it was raining; looking out the window i realized that i'm on earth. i am sitting on the surface of planet earth, watching the weather do its thing, as it always has done and always will do, no matter what we do to try and prevent it or protect ourselves from it. this wasn't the first time i've had this realization but it was definitely the first time in awhile. this is where the fascination of weather started. watching the rain as a process as old as the planet instead of as a reason to pack an umbrella- the original happiness.

got me thinking today; why can't i just get what's in my head out? do i not know how, or am i afraid to?

it's not black and white it's black and blue
