Away from it all

This Easter weekend, I got away from it all. Went to a pretty chillax town about 7 hrs. away from here. It was beautiful and refreshing. I enjoyed it so much. I got to meet a bunch of really kewl English (and New Zealand) guys who were (was? lolz) fun to be with. There were some American and German girls at the hostel as well. I even met (and roomed!) with fellow Canadians!!! For supper, me and the guys bbq'ed fish and squid together (the prawns were another matter...) I got a chance to just hang out at the beach, listen to T.D. Jakes on my iPod, listen to music, squinting like there's no tomorrow because the sand was getting in my eyes. I went to this amazing rampart that was in a movie in the 1950's. I got a twisted ankle while I was there too! The night before I left, played some poker and won both rounds. That was fun. All in all, I really, REALLY enjoyed myself!

Itz been awhile since that has happened. I've been in "the dark" so to speak for quite awhile now. I appreciated the glimmer of goodness that I felt. It was good to laugh again, to be with strangers and in a few minutes, become friends with them. It was good to not feel lonely again. It was good to not feel the burden of isolation again. This weekend, I remembered who I was. I remembered that I used to be not so lonely. I remembered that I wasn't always unhappy. There was a moment when I lived with drama not live through a drama. I can only hope that now that I'm back to real life, it would get better. Coz I'm tired of feeling depressed and isolated. I was happy again. I had almost forgotten what that was like.
