A Quest for Enlightenment

I’ve been awfully sick these past few days which has made it difficult to muster up the effort to do much of anything. School has ended, with the exception of one more exam on Thursday, and I have been rather anxious over all the free time I am going to be faced with. With nothing better to do than sit with my own thoughts I have decided to venture on a summer filled with all things “serene.”

I am going to force myself to channel my energy into creative and, well, happy activities as I have been feeling my life is overwhelmed with doings that bring me nothing but negative vigor. Whether it is pulling out my acrylics and painting, going to a museum or getting back into working on my poetry, I am certain I will bring a subtle light to my lonely summer. Although it is somewhat frightening for me to voyage outside of my normal, and unhealthily comfortable, routine I am determined to use this summer as a period for self discovery. I will chronicle my mundane adventure and hopefully succumb to some sort of epiphany by the time the leaves return to a crimson orange and find whatever it is I am searching for; perhaps it is an enlightened view on the irrational world and my irrational place within in.
