Where ever,..

You go

There you are,..

Wise words shared with me

many years ago

While I was running the dance and drama program

at a girl scout camp

(shut up, stop laughing, I was a flipin' girl scout when I was 19)

On our "off" time

The Specials, the activity leaders

would get time to chill in the bunks and so forth,...

And this hippie chick and I were chattin'

I think I was blah blahing about wanting to get away

move to Europe and meet an Irish man,..yummmm

but she kinda stopped me in my daydreaming tracks

when she was like

Where ever you go, there you are

and it hit me like a ton o bricks

I might try to flee but in the end , I will catch up to myself

and whatever I might be running from

It will ring the bell at my front door

Since then,

I know my crap will follow me

or at least linger in the shadows

So now it is about

looking good will carrying baggage

but,

at least I didn't leave it at the airport,...

I guess what I am trying to say

is I do my best to juggle my junk

but sometimes

running away sounds like an awesome idea,.....

but then I would find myself with wind blown hair

and that doesn't look good on anyone ;)
