I want to go here:
This place looks tranquil and beautiful and inspiring.
I am having a hard time being inspired by my backyard these
days.
I have never been the most peaceful of people – like just
satisfied in my own skin – but these days my brain simply vibrates with the
desire to find something better. I have
no love life, no close friends, my house is falling apart, and I am dead
broke. I look at pictures of all the
beautiful places in the world, and I don’t understand why I have trapped myself
in this particular place. I guess I’ve
made all the wrong choices. One or two
good ones, interspersed with a string of shit ones.
I would like to have a dream, one of those where you wake up
feeling transformed, but I would like it to be real. I would like to find something like this in
my backyard:
Is that too much to ask?
I mean, someone has this
treehouse in their backyard, because I’m looking at a picture of it right
now. I don’t want to become a hunchbacked, bitter
old crank, sitting in a chair in my bleak, shitty house, wondering what
happened to my life. I want to tear down
the walls; they're suffocating me. And there's no one here to dream with either, which is maybe the hardest part of all.
