My day…

Today has been a busy day. Today I had to wake up (not an easy task), get to work, and accomplish the millions of tasks on my to do list. Were there really a million things? Yes. I counted. Then I got to cross of number 512. 🙂

The fourth of July holiday extravaganza was one that I sort of missed this year. By that I mean, I didnt sit outside in the swealtering heat to swat at starving mosquitos, only to have ash fall on my head. I decided that it wasnt worth it. I stayed indoors. I watched the fireworks from my living room couch in the AC. Did I miss much? I dont think so and I saved hundreds on Benedryl, not  to mention West Nile meds.

 This weekend I also saw a fabulous movie called Once. It was wonderful! I highly recommend it. The music was insanely good!

Do people ever really know each other?

There isnt one person in this world who knows everything about me. There are some who know lots and lots who know some. I have started thinking about why that is. What is so scary about letting down a few walls down? What is it about vulnerablility that is so terrifying?  I don’t know, but the thought shakes me to the core.

How do people let down that wall that shields them from the pain of being hurt? They say that when it is the right people that you just will. I am skeptical. Its not that I don’t want to, I am just not sure how to tell the right people and that incites wariness.

Maybe one day when I am older and wiser, I will have the answer. For now it will just remain one of life’s mysteries.
