Out in the backyard of my mother's house, I put out my sun tea, and I was picking fresh oregano for her marinade when I reaffirmed my yearning for true peace. I was dreaming of my own little cottage, out in the lowlands, bordered by streams, when I realized that it is an internal creation

i feel very similarily a lot of the time. i went out to the country near montreal and decided i should move out there nad plant a garden and listen to political folk music and be happy. it is tough. the idea of a city and theidea of peace within insanity....
tough tough
also- did you you used to date my friend maegan and is that how i know who you are?

I wonder if I could handle the peace that I crave. I don't think I could. Maybe for a certain amount of time.

I would probably just replace social feelings, with reading books. That wouldn't be so bad.

But mostly I just crave that finished product feeling, where I am content, and I can do everything I want to, blah blah, impossibility, woohoo.

Yes, I dated Maegan, and that is how you know who I am. And I know Tara Birch too. And some other people on your list. Damn, I should hang out with Tara before she leaves.

do hang otu with tara, she's a gem!
i think that's why most of us live in cities, cause we can't handle the peace, the silence, the stillness. so few people these days know how to entertain themselves....it's too bad. i couldn't eave the city yet, but i definatly want to. i made my hammock today, so it's like living not in the city on my back proch.
cool. do you ever see maegan? i never do.
i take it then you still live in vancouver? you shoudl visit montreal! weeeee!
