. busy streets and traffic lights
HD "i'm walking fast through the traffic lights, busy streets and busy lives, and all we know, is touch and go." i guess we all interpret words differently. most of you are taking a literal standpoint on that ^, say, maybe you're picturing NYC. you're seeing streets crowded with cabs and angry drivers and honking horns. you see solemn-faced business men and women walking down the sidewalk, not stopping to look at anything or anyone. or maybe you're like me, and you're looking past the new york city limits, past the streets, past the honking horns, and into reality. i'll just go ahead and analogize this: NYC is our "world". the cabs, angry drivers, and honking horns are the distractions - bad things. bad bad bad. the serious business men and women? that's us. or maybe it's just me. i don't know. these are my words, maybe you'll agree? i tend to walk through life with no acknowledgement of anything. i wake up at the same time every morning. i go through the same hygenical routines, i eat (basically) the same breakfast, i drive to school at the same time, everything is routine. i'm a robot. i'm one of those business women i mentioned earlier. i walk on my sidewalk not glancing up at any of the passing traffic or noises. i stay on the safe side and do what's needed but nothing more. yes, i'll admit, every so often i do glance up from my spot on my sidewalk to look at the traffic - open my ears to the car horns, but i find when i do that, i trip on the cracks on the pavement. i'll stumble or maybe even fall. i get caught up in that pointless, meaningless traffic, and i end up hurt every time. and maybe it's just me and i'm going crazy, but that's what happens. so i keep doing my same routine, saying hi to the same people every morning, doing the same things all the time. and i'm starting to realize i hate it, no, i don't want to stop and get caught up in that traffic (my apologies to those of you who ARE the traffic - clean yourself up) but i need something different. and that's what i'm working on figuring out right now. bare with me and maybe i'll reveal what i've figured out some time in here. --------------------------------------- hi tuesday was just as bad as monday. feeling like wednesday may be a little worse - thursday definitely will be. hopeful for a good friday? we'll see. anyone want to give me some flu virus so i may excuse myself from the world for the rest of the week? that'd be nice. audio was made by Leigh / dancinghorsez (aka the most fab person and editor ever) so please subscribe to her - swear you won't regret it. also, i rode magnum tonight. -kaitlyn http://www.formspring.me/xeqjumpx
