Life shifts

It's funny to me, how life shifts and sways, like an ocean, the tide coming in and going out, repititious but unique at the same time.

Jessica is gone to her first tour of duty. Jeremiah may not stay. Nothing stays the same. But so much of it has happened before.

I dreamed of water last night, reluctant to go swimming for fear the water would be frigid, sticking my toe in to realize the water was just fine, and so I jumped in.

I dreamed of men who represent taking care of their families - Michael Landon and Larry Dunn (a man my ex worked for who still looks after me at times to this day) in some seemingly unrelated circumstances, but with that feeling that they were men who looked after their families (Little House on the Prairie thing, I'm sure).

I feel strange, like I'm watching the movie of someone else's life, mis-appropriated aesthetic distance.

And I'm trying not to cry.
