Dazed and seemingly immovable

     I’ve noticed that I’ve become a bit dazed in life. Most days I’m stuck in a numb reverie, like I’m just going through the motions, just for the hell of it. I wasn’t created to become a drone, but that’s the effect of what the past untraveled six months has had on me. I understand that the majority of people go through similar spells from time to time in their own lives, and I also know that some people follow alike path, forever – with no thought of living an unconventional life. But it’s just not in my blood to sit still and be governed. I’m an anti-lemming, out to help forge a new path, and that path has come to be known as ‘the route less traveled.’ The whole ordeal that I’ve had to deal with the past half-year has put quite a damper on my spirit and my drive – but unlike most dumbfounded individuals, I know and understand my dreams and my goals, and I’ve realized how to achieve them. It’s not something everyone can say, but I know my direction. So from this point forward, I will be taking steps to right my path and focusing on getting back out there – out into the world, where I can feel freedom once again. My first step today was purchasing some of the items that I would need as if I was leaving for a trip next week. For the sizable trip that I have planned, there’s plenty to plan and to organize before I setting off. And it’s about damn time for me to get my head back in the game. (Alright, alright. I think that’s quite enough of my cliche phrasings)
