Right Track

So I've been on this "sabbatical" for some time now. It's been great. It's given me time to sort out myself and everything else. It's been quite a roller coaster.. jeez... it has. But ShadowlessTomorrow never breaks a sweat. At least not a drop that you can see. Ha.

So in this time. I've just been doing... nothing. Well nothing in the sense of productivity. It's just been day after day of me time. Listening to the music I want to listen to. Playing games I want to play. Drawing things I want to draw. Reading things I want to read. Drinking things I want to drink (seriously do you think I would forget that? hahahaha) It's been a good time. I needed time to sort myself out. It's like I was a bundle of knots and everytime something else came along, it added another knot. How gay. How stupid. How dumb. How complicated. Ugh. Well I needed time. I think we all need time to just disappear sometimes and just rediscover ourselves. Our work. Our lives. Are never lived the way we want to live. We wear these masks. These costumes. They never fit correctly. Always a little big, a little tight. Don't you ever feel you want to take it all off. Throw it all to the wind and be you as it was meant to be. Think about it?

I'm back now. I'm back to logical over-analyzing ShadowlessTomorrow. I'm back to full steam; coal burning hot and engine running fast. After the rest it's time for work. Not work in the sense that we all have. The ends to a mean. The grind to make out lives a little more livable.

(I don't like that idea. I'm not content with the idea that working for a living is all I can strive for. I'm not the kind of guy to just work because I need to the money. I will drop a high paying job for happier pastures any time any day any week. I've done so before. I will continue to do so. I want my mind to be excercised and my skills stretched to the limit. I want to Grow, Evolve, and Learn. If 8 hours of my life is going to be taken up by monotonous work that I care not for, I will leave. (This is not to say that my last employment was monotonous. It was more personal issues coupled with loss of job satisfaction. It happens. Things just hit you in unexpected ways right?)

Life is back on track now. It's back with all the intricacies that come that. How fun huh? For sure. It's a fucking ball. (Not sarcasm. Nope. Not even in the slightest) So... Um. I got distracted so I'm going to leave this post half finished. I know right. Cliff hangers... They. Are. Terrible.

Maybe you'll come back to chat again? (or read rather...) Lezz hope you do. I promise to touch on past subjects I left unfinished. *salutes*

Back on Earth,
ShadowlessTomorrow
