I seem to count each summer as another episode. It goes from the school year to the summer and back again to school. It'll be interesting when there's no more school and my life becomes one long movie. Working this summer was nothing like last summer. Different demographics of customers, along with a variety of coworkers (both genders included), leading to.......what? At the end of an episode at least some parts of the story are wrapped up, there's a realization in the minds of the characters, the "aha!" moment that allows them to continue into the next episode with some sense of accomplishment or contentment. Yet I find that the ending of this episode, of the summer, of my job, well its like I keep diving and yet come up empty handed.
But maybe its just that I'm swimming, and forgetting that I did make a few sand castles and built a few good sand pools, because I did this summer. I know I impacted the land, but why does the water seem to draw me and question my integrity? It's purpose I seek, but then again isn't that always what it comes down to?
I guess I'll have to keep diving, keep exploring and simply tread the water a little. Maybe I'll find a honu soon =)
