It is odd for me to be here right now. HERE, in this current predicament. Everyone's going it seems and I'm staying still. I was the first of my friends to graduate and I'm staying still. Not moving, somewhat stagnant. Many of course are just returning to school but some are going to the places of their dreams and I, I can't even remember what my dreams look like. Regardless of where they are all going there is a semblance of permanence in their departures this time.
There is a suitcase sitting by my door, I brought it home with me. Usually a suitcase sitting by the door signifies some sort of impermanence, a journey yet to be begun, but for me it was the end of my journey and my coming home. The suitcase was full of my shoes and they just needed to get back where they started.
