Follow the Light and Pursue Your Dreams

I woke up, worked a little bit on my graphic novel, touching up the last page, before I drove to two errands. While I was changing my clothes inside my bedroom, I looked out the window and noticed two little squirrels chasing each other from tree to tree until they went up one of the trees. It was so cute because it was like two kids playing together, across the street, but still in the same townhomes association. When I was at the post office to mail a bill, I thought I gave the clerk 50 cents, but it turned out that one coin was foreign, although it was the same size as the quarter. I think it is either Indian or Asian. Someone must have given it to me as change. Then, I drove to the Spectrum Center, for my usual gym routine of spa and yoga. Today feels like summertime because the temperature is in the 80s, and I noticed many kids roaming around in the mall. School’s out for the summer! I returned home and ate some vegan grilled cheese sandwiches. Then, I made some French Press espresso, in which I left it in the French Press for over twenty minutes. Meanwhile, I turned on the computer and noticed it was 2:22 pm, which has a spiritual connection.

At 4:30 pm, I went to the Spectrum Center again, but I sat outside reading a book that I recently got at an event—Limitless by Matt Lloyd—which is about affiliate marketing. I read a couple of chapters until I started to dose off because it was hot outside, before I went to pick up my ticket at the Improv counter, and went inside. I decided to sit alone, wherever the person seated me, but I told them I wanted to sit somewhere in the center section. I ordered Mediterranean salad and cup of coffee, which was good as well as the comedy was entertaining. At 10 pm, I slowly walked around in the mall. There was open mike next door, which wasn’t really funny. It was quiet and peaceful at ten o’clock at night, and few people were just hanging out or maybe walking to their cars. I noticed it was quieter than usual for a Wednesday night, but the busier nights are usually on weekends.

(The above photograph is my snapshot of my coffee table when it is clean and organized. I like the colors, textures, and shapes of the different interesting items that make up my personal style and living space. But, unfortunately, the candle store that I bought this interesting tiered puck-style candle closed down soon after it actually opened, which is sad. But, I guess, not many people are shopping nowadays. I only shop at stores when I actually need something).
