I am Awake
I was alone one night. It was the weekend, but I had no money. I tried to think of something fun I could do without having to pay money to do it. So I robbed a gas station and flew to Vegas, got two hookers and an 8 ball and partied until the police picked me up for robbery. lol, just kidding....
I thought and though about it and I came to realize that my fun, since I grew up so to speak, has been economically based. This means I have been used to paying money for things like going to the movies, going bowling, playing a round of golf, having lunch and dinner during those days... and it all costs money. And then it hit me. Reading! That was the answer for me. I walked to the library and found one book I have always wanted to read. When I was young, I read a lot in the evenings. I realized that I had forgotten that which brings me peace, quiet, and joy all at the same time for the low, low price of nothing. I am awake today...
