Leaving Home

I got home last night, late after a day of work and school. After sitting and talking with Kesia for a bit I decided to go for a bike ride. Although I did not want to leave, and she likewise did not want me to leave, I felt it was important for me to go. She and I both knew although I would return, I would eventually have to leave again. And sure enough, when I woke up this morning I had to leave again. It is difficult for me to leave time and time again but I know and Kesia knows that at times it is important to leave. At times I must spread my feeble little wings and go out into the mean cruel world and live a little.

After a bit of time and 8 miles on my bike I decided to return, it came as no surprise that Kesia was still there. She knew I would return and I had no intention of leaving for good. I was changed when I returned; I was tired, a little sweatier, and a lot smellier.

So why this strange little story? No reason really I just thought it might be an important lesson for some of my fellow T.I.T. members to hear. We leave our fellow members, family, and friends, but it will not be forever, we will all come back someday. We will change when we are gone; however, when we come together again we can have a good time and talk about what happened when we were apart. Although Kesia was not fond of spending time too close, since as referenced before I was a lot smellier, I had fun telling her about my ride…

Until Next Time
