i want to sit
downtown in a coffee shop
and write my heart out.
life's just too crazy; too much running and yelling and trying to earn the money to pay the bills to keep the cars and houses and yards that nobody ever needed in the first place. i want peace, and rest, and renewal. i need to leave this place and do something new. though we know the restless heart can't win, still we try anyway, frustrating ourselves with our silly dreams and grand schemes and realizing we can't fool ourselves any longer into thinking that this is how we thought it would end; this is how we thought we would end. we've always had it wrong. maybe there's a bit of artist in us all that won't let us be content with just existing.
i need a break from life.
Matthew 11:28
