Walked the miles of untracked roads, and felt the soils of different lands, and experience the richness of what each new event can give. We are complete. With all this in hand, everything seems to become a reminder of something else. We are beings of knowledge with a vast database of images, smells, sounds, touch, taste... one event.... just a reminder of something else....
A beautiful sunset... a reminder of the beaches in Hawaii
The way a girls hips move... a reminder of the way a good friend dances
Hard blowing wind through your hair... a reminder of those meaningful summer walks filled with great conversations about nothing
A picture on a stranger's wall... a reminder of a place and time that you know so well
That particular smell... a reminder of how a pretty girl's hair smelled as she walks by
Great seafood... a reminder of the best restaurant, in some far off distant place...
Don't remind me! I'm looking for something that does not remind me anymore. Show me the new world. Show me what I don't already know. Make me breathless. Inspires my heart and soul. Open my mind. Make me remember something new. Give me a new measuring stick and let me stand there in awe..
And let me forget everything else for a moment... Now I'll remember how it feels to be free...
