The In-between

The other night, as I'm walking into my new apartment, (not new as in just built, but new as in... recently moved) I'm interrupted by a strange man thrusting documents into my hands. As I'm telling my sister to hold on... and eventually that I'd call her back; I take the papers. And with probably a bewildered look, I'm trying to figure out why I'm holding foreclosure papers for the house that I've been renting for less than a month. The surprise of the situation, caused me to leave the keys in the door lock and walk upstairs... and after realizing there wasn't much I could do at 10:37 at night, I went to bed.

I'm finding myself lost somewhere between where I am and the place I desire to be. Where I am is not at all a bad place, but its not one that I won't ever find satisfaction... or contentment for that matter. I don't necessarily mean my living situation, but my work and the where I find myself spending time. So as I sit here, knowing that my current situation is unfavorable at best, I'm waiting to act... anticipating change that will come eventually, but trying to find the courage to bite the bullet and create that change I long for. So I sit her somewhere in the in-between waiting to pounce. Hoping that once I do, it will be a vault that will launch me somewhere great, and that the passion I have will fuel the action needed to land where I want to be.

Have you ever thought of becoming a writer? I've been in school as an English major for 4 years now and graduating but I still can't write half as well as you can. I'm also refering to the myspace blog you wrote about having to go out in the winter storm while everyone else got to stay in. I enjoy reading what you write. Keep it up! :)
