Dearest Diary,
usually people would be writing for the core reason that something extreme is going on in their life. That however is not the case for me. Thinking about it now, if the unspoken rule did not apply to me, I have no doubt there would be many others doing the same.
I am not special...but I am certain this moment is.
All things in life at the moment have appeared to stop. Halting in place. It was as if I had woken up early morning to watch the water still in front of me. It was full of youth, lacking wrinkles another would envy. No boats, no birds, no fish. Everyone appeared to have rested their eyes...just for now.
This calm, mundane life called to me through the chill in the Winter air. Feeling the contrast of the cool that floated around me compared to the extreme heat on the sides of my mug, a burning I gladly welcomed with the dropping temperatures so early in the morning.
I know they question. Those with a life so out there. Taking risks and dancing away whilst laughing in sunlight. They enjoy the chatter, the pointless banter back and forth with each other, dancing in the shallow water causing ripples to swim out.
I see their curious eyes as their gaze falls upon my still form, a small, tight-lipped smile resting uncomfortably on my face.
Yet another moment distracted by the waves they made...perhaps I will wait for another moment like this.
Yours Truly,
J.N.T
