I am visiting my parents this weekend, or i should say visited as the visit is almost over. I decided to confront the beast in the closet of my mind...THE PAST Ooohhhh! A long time ago i moved to new york - umm 3 and a half years i think. and when i did I left a pile of pictures - and pretty much EVERY college memory behind. It's not that I had a bad experience in college - no not in the least. i DID however have quite the "associative disorder" with a certain person and that particular slice of life.
FAST FORWARD....
here I am filling a box of odds and ends that I'd like to take back to brooklyn. A few pairs of shoes, some shirts, a book or two, an 8 year old box of bari reeds (yeah WOW) and then I came across the checst of pictures. And in it I found formals and galas, hiking trips and journeys to metropolize. I found fraternities and still (Whew) close friends, and i found a number of pictures of the women in my life.
REWIND
Lately (as likely evidenced by previous posts) i've been a bit brooding. Can I still love someone? Can I trust another? And this is not solely in reflect to those who have come and gone - BUT simply knowing what I know today - is it possible for my to still intimately love another - do I have the capacity? In years past - the answers have been all short of yes - ensuring certain failure to solve the problem - is it a problem? maybe - no wait - it certainly is.
AND TO THE PRESENT
I can now say that it's time for a change. 2008 is the year the moves and like my body so will my heart (well sure it moves all the time whether I like it or not - but then I do like it on occasion when it stops moving ever so slightly). I can feel the need for spring and summer like a new pair of shoes. And my winter soles are worn out. I need to kiss, and need to touch, and - (in certain most manly situations) I need to cry with a confidant - a companion - a lover - an equal. it's taken me so long to admit that the past is just that - back chapters in an already exciting book. and I've been on the fence (or perhaps locked in the shed) for too long to not make more memories that in 8 years I should too look fondly upon.
and if I have it my way - I'll be an old dude still cherishing a palpable past while laughing at the future.
