There's a stillness in the air, even though life goes on at its usual breakneck speed, spring is here, everything will change, again, as usual. The gently curving line of rocks, sand and sun doesn't change, the moss grows a little greener, the flowers come up to die. I'm happy. I can say it again without lying or bursting into tears; it's a good thing.

It's almost time to go swimming, I feel the sea calling to me; I'd like company, but you have to at least be willing to dip your toes in the water, it's no fun if you don't. I have a lot to do, but then I always do; not really a huge number of things, more of a huge mountain or two. It helps that I'm resting on a plateau, but I still need to go beyond it.

I've been getting up earlier lately, waking up to Gong Kebyar and actually eating before going out into the day; it's made a huge difference. I really do function better when I have time to do 'unimportant' things like sitting outside, blogging and drinking tea. There is a large heart made out of the tops of bottles arranged on the concrete at ubc, it made me smile. I think I'll miss the deconstruction of the library when it's gone. I've grown accustomed to the huge, resounding clangs and bangs, humming and scraping that it produces. I know I'm not the first to appreciate the sounds, but it still makes me happy.

I think I'm going to buy the seeds of a plant that my mom used to grow; I used to mostly dislike it, but now, oddly (much like coffee) I seem to like it. Funny. And it grows well in the shade. haha, off to class.
