Feel like a kid today. Feel like a kid but with the knowing of an adult. When you lay your new joy over past sadnesses, did you ever notice how it makes the joy EXPLODE off the page - like fireworks... technicolour and bold, you can almost taste them, they permeate my being so.
Today I saw chandeliers hanging from under bridges, chandeliers glowing in the boughs of great gum trees, I felt the cool calm of those trees breathing on me as I stared up in to their beautiful shapely arms. I saw the blueness of the light there. The heartbreaking subtle pink of the toon tree. The intense azure blue of a cateye on the road and the bright, lush, downy green of a maple, bursting with new leaf, the lovely pooled black of vintage VW beetle.
All these things I see with no stimulants. None of that black coffee, none of those other vices... All these things bring amazing happiness, it swells and my heart feels like it's the size of my whole being. I want to hug my heart. I drink it in - eyes willing to look at things like it's the first time and my heart seeking joy like a missile locked on its target.
