I am not wandering, I am seeking.

“We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of the dream. Wandering by lone sea breakers, and sitting by desolate streams. World losers and world foresakers, for whom the pale moon gleams. Yet we are movers and the shakers of the world forever it seems.”

Arthur William Edgar O'Shaughnessy quotes

I just stumbled upon this quote and find it to quite beautifully sum up how I feel about myself in the world. Some people may call me a free spirit, others may call me irresponsible, but I like to think of my self as wanderer seeking and exploring.

I may not be the motivated business and academic minded person some people would like me to be. That is simply just not me. I whistle to my own tune. I dream wild, vivid, and wondrous dreams. I thrive on the senses and experiences. On sights, sounds, touch, people, and places. I move people around me and I tend to accidentally shake things up.

I can't possibly change what is intrinsically me. That would be changing the very core of what makes me, ME. So, rather I must work with what I got. Shake what my mama gave me, and that most definitely isn't a ba dunk a dunk in da trunk.

Using, the small ass I do have I am going to take this little booty and teach it how to shake. Shake in all kinds of erotic and silly ways. But in reality, I am going to discover how my eccentricities exactly fit into this complicated 3D puzzle called Life.

I have plans. Plans for seeking. They are not extravagant or even bizarre. Rather, exactly what I need and quite simple. In less two weeks, I am moving to Seattle. Like I said, nothing to crazy. It is new though, and something I have always wanted to do. Pack my bags, move to a city without any plans, and figure it out. Hopefully, lots of adventures will happen along the way. And it would be even better, if it worked out. However, if doesn't no worries either. Sometimes, the pieces of the puzzle just come together.

I'll document my experiences here. For your reading pleasure. Bah haha, shhhyeah right.
