I Go West

I am awake long before the alarm will go off. Should I turn it off? Should I just get up and get ready? Or should I stay in bed to get as much rest as I can [which will not be half as much as I need, anyways] ?

My bags are packed, my clothes laid out. No, these will not do, I decide. I will take no chances, I want to look my best. Quick, put these away, take out the smarter option, pull out all stops.

When I step out, it is still dark. I peer down the road. Where is my ride? I do not want to be late, to miss the train. My eyes move up the western sky - there she is, the beautiful, almost-full Moon. Smiling down at me. God bless, she says.

I wait there, anxious, my heart brimming. Waiting, to go West. To my hope, my future, my destiny. Am I so near, so close, to that road of my dreams?

I look down the road again, and up to the moon. My eyes move across the skies... Wait! There is the Heavenly Hunter, and the brilliant blue Sirius. My mascots, my lucky stars! Yes. Now I know that this is the right road, nothing will stop me.

I go West.



This one is for my Bear... who is there at the end of the road.

Fortune favors the brave.

Start with a larger canvas.
Mix brighter colors.
Choose a larger brush.
Load it with more paint.
Form broader strokes.

Draw a better picture. Live more.

Sunshine and roses will make anyone's day. They did mine the other day in Erode.
