I have been dreaming and thinking about my childhood a lot lately. I miss my parents. My childhood was a good one. I have so many happy memories from that time.
Unfortunately, my joyful childhood ended abruptly when the world fell into chaos. Death and destruction were everywhere. Those of us left had to rebuild. It has not been easy. Life has been downright horrible at times.
I wish we could just be nice to each other. Share resources. But that isn't how life is. Life is a constant fight over resources. It's also about getting out of the way of those who trample on us for fun. I don't want to fight with anyone over a can of peaches. I'm tired of living that way.
You would think with the festival happening soon, I would be in a great mood. I am happy for the most part. I see my friends smiling in anticipation of the fun. I love seeing the joy in their steps. The festival can't get here soon enough. I can't wait to smile. I want to laugh.
I want to play spades. I'm going to interrupt the make-out session that Matt and Hemy are having down the hall….and grab Tony and make them play spades with me. I need a game of spades today.
