A Random Afternoon...

Sitting here… all alone, ideas, thoughts and some stuff creeping inside my head. Asking myself what better things to do besides staying still and moving about the house!? I really don’t have the single of clues to what interesting activities besides cleaning up the yard trickled with fallen leaves from the trees surrounding the house. Nothing more but afternoon chores I’ve grown accustomed with, thereafter, I sit, eat, move about or if not look endless over a blank web page thinking what decent phrases would spur out of my busy stagnant mind.

What happens now?! What’s next!?

Looking up, all I see is a blue sky with scattered clouds moving in, passing by, blown off by the wind.

The wind kisses my cheek every now and then, the soft rustle of the leaves that go by with it; the playful chirping of every bird nestled on the trees, and the glary streaks of the setting sun.

These past few days, all I can think of is work but not totally moving or if not, staying for that annoying ring hoping that somehow it meant I’m up and vacation’s over. Yet, all I have are a few inane missed calls and blank inboxes filled in with telecom updates. Boring. Blank. Useless.

Mocking the time, every day all I have to think about in every waking hour I have are the chores I’ve thought about every night before I die to a melatonin-filled tantra or those things that are yet to be done. Routine stuff.

What goes after this!? What happens next?? Queries so broad any thought of rationalizing would be some ridicule to oneself as it is unsolved even simplified thought measure of intelligence or dumb-wittedness.

I can go no longer with this literacy as the human attention span as abide to mine is no shorter than an hour and no longer than the aforementioned statement.  Suffice it to say; the looming darkness would soon be embracing me as the cold drafts shall tickle my toes, making goose bumps creep along my spine… stars would scatter in the night sky and I hope the moon would bring light tonight. But it will be hours from now before all these sceneries happen.

For now, I’ll wait for the sky to turn purple and the sun to glow blood orange. The setting of the sun is about to start and the day is almost at the end… where would I be??!

I’m in the best place in this world. I’m where I want myself to be. Standing still, watching a beautiful random afternoon.
