Yes, everyone I have become a dorky simpleton and the funny thing about it is that I am happier now then I was about a year ago. If you would have asked me if I would be as excited as I am now over a pink, retro, cheesy beach cruiser, I would have looked at you like you had two heads. I would have thought you were even crazier if you would have told me that I would be actually riding one of them and be happy doing it! It all boils down to the fact that Hawaii has changed me and for the better!!
Maybe it's the people that I have met here, the paradise environment, the aloha lifestyle or maybe it's that I am finally realizing what's important in my life. It took 5,000 miles to distance myself enough to get back to who I was. I know that it doesn't make much sense but it totally makes sense to me. It took me going back to VB to realize that my past still had a slight hold on me and it took me coming back to Hawaii to realize that I was finally ready to sever that hold that my past had on me and finally move on with my future. Don't get me wrong, I am not slighting the people that I love and care about me back there. I am talking about the rest of the bullshit that I dealt with there. Who I was there is not the same person that I am today and thank god for that!!!
It's funny how such a small thing like a shiny new pink cruiser can invoke such a revelation but that's how life goes. If you can't enjoy the simple things, how can you enjoy the bigger and important things in life? I know that's a question that really doesn't have an answer so I don't expect an answer. I'd like to figure it out for myself and try to enjoy the process ; - )
Well, enough of my babbling for the day!!!
