Before the Longest Night of the Year

I woke upwards yesterday to my boy touching my arm.

"Will you lot come upwards together with lay downwards past times me?" he asked. The heaven was nighttime together with I checked my clock. Early.

Sometimes the earliest mornings are the greatest gifts to an anxious soul. So I took advantage.

"Yes, allow me take in my magazine together with I'll write."

It had been ix months since I had written last. I tried to write everything downwards I discovery pregnant inwards my life correct now. And together with therefore I thumbed through the terminal few years of my life.

2013: I experience a foreign loneliness

Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 foreign loneliness indeed. I was born amongst it together with it followed me unopen to similar a childhood dog. And hither I am, nevertheless well-acquainted amongst this feeling. Comes together with goes. I accept complaint of its presence together with absence. I'm certain this weblog is total of posts nearly this sentiment, this friend (I guess?) I've carried amongst me forever.

There is no cure for this--it is what it is. It is me. I intend maybe, some of us thinkers intend through tunnels therefore deep that at that spot are few who tin flaming empathize (at to the lowest degree that's what nosotros think)(I suspect we're simply non advanced plenty inwards linguistic communication to communicate this experience). It's foreign to live inwards those places, together with it's lonely. Strange together with lonely.

And the loss of lite on the public doesn't help.

But because Anson gave me the gift of an early on morning, together with afterward he was settled dorsum down, I took it exterior to a still, ashy pre-dawn. I slipped into the hot tub together with kept my midpoint on the white mountains simply eastward of me. In a few moments the pinnacle of Cascade Mountain flashed a pinky-orange together with clouds moved inwards trails towards the Wasatch Back. Light from the pinnacle of Slate Canyon appeared together with the heaven turned into a melted pastel Popsicle-yellows, pinks, blues. The pines on Y Mountain appeared similar dark statues standing sentry over the the sunrise. The fir tree to the due south filtered inwards a warm light, past times the steel grass together with into the hot H2O where I sat.

Light.

It is a reprieve for the foreign loneliness.

And I was grateful for it.
