And we meet again

Incoherent Thoughts
Its been years. So much has happened. We've come so far from where we started. Life turned out to be better than anything I ever expected. Achieved so many things, left so many behind. I can safely say I've grown.. as a person.. as a human being.. I've found compassion. Thats important. Very.
I've also found my constant. Thats also important. VERY.
Funny thing is my constant isn't - well - CONSTANT. It keeps on growing... getting better with time - like wine and cheese does. If that makes sense?
Companionship is a gift. My family is part of my constant. Finding the right person to start it with was of absolute importance. Got that part right, I guess.. The right one lets you explore yourself, find yourself... the way you've never been explored.... from the deepest points to the most shallow ones.
Shallow - thats one thing I've always hated. Loathed. Not anymore, I guess. I've developed a special appreciation for "Shallow". It takes some nerve to be that, or the lack of.. Im not sure. I think the entire idea has a very materialistic touch to it..
After all these years I've grown to dislike materialism.. The only things you REALLY need to be happy are the clothes at your back, food in your stomach and ofcourse a nice comfy bed. The rest is just noise and luxury.. It makes you sluggish, slow, purposeless.
Purposelessness is definitely a killer. To survive life you dont need one but to LIVE it you HAVE to have a purpose.. a longing.. a bitter ache that keeps you awake at night. Thankfully thats the other part of my constant.
For now, im happy.. content with my contants.. :)
