The Long Way
I take the long way home.
I always have. Since I was in third grade and walked three blocks out of my way from school everyday just to pass by the lake. To this day I still drive on streets out of my way just to see the park. The only reason I bring it up is because I first became aware of it today. So how does something this major go by undetected for all these years? Let's look a little deeper.
Perhaps, the long way home is not just a longer way to get home, but a philosophy. A lifestyle. A revolution. Maybe it's a way to tell the world that you're not afraid to explore him. Maybe it's a way to tell time that you're not afraid to steal some of her.
I also believe that the long way home is that way for a reason. To discourage those who aren't ready for it. Being the long way home ensures that the lazy, the weak, and the easily discouraged never even attempt it.
Yes, I take the long way home.

Hey,
I really like your blog! Do you have an email? I'd really like to chat with you. I promise I am not some crazed psycho. If you want to email me it is brigurl88@hotmail.com
bye. hope to hear from you.
P.S. I like to write poetry too.
I have gotten a few published. No joke.
Telling time you're not afraid to steal. Good one.
I make demands on time, and that's what I needed to hear, today. That it's a good thing. I spend time I'm told I don't have. My friends and colleagues can dump me. Its all about results, results, results- they want them faster. They steal from each other, people don't give one another the time to produce quality work. But quality and rarity takes time, it's a lesson and a sacrifice that I'm learning. I take from time, I give quality back.
