Today

Today, I almost forgot to put my glasses on before leaving the house.
Today, I was late for work.
Today, I didn't wear makeup for the first time in 2 weeks.
Today, I resisted the urge to submerge myself in the need to be in constant communication.
Today, I helped a friend understand something she couldn't click together, herself.
Today, I gave that same friend a new haircut and color that makes her feel better about herself.
Today, I felt the feeling of selfless satisfaction.
Today, I understood what it meant to grow alongside another person.
Today, I understood how important communication is.
Today, I packed a go-bag for my car.
Today, I felt the need to get out.
Today, I wanted to keep driving until I ran out of gas.
Today, I caught up with an old client of mine.
Today, I felt nostalgic.
Today, I understood what it meant to be older.
Today, I learned what "melancholy" meant.
Today, I felt like I moved in slow motion.
Tonight, I feel like an ocean.
