I thought I would be really good at this whole Mindfulness thing because I really enjoy doing nothing, but it turns out my mind just wanders. Mostly to Dylan, of course. I haven’t seen much of him recently. Between me being busy with school and him with his late uni application we didn’t really have much time. I thought that now, with summer finally here, our romance will flourish, but I don’t even know where he is. I stopped by their house this morning, but there was no reply. Maybe they went away to visit their grandparents?
So here I am, sitting by the stream, playing with my hair and reflecting on my life. It’s all good really. I might be complaining about not seeing Dylan. Or my best friend Niamh, as a matter of fact, but just two years ago I didn’t even have a best friend. And I definitely didn’t have an almost boyfriend either. And now, look at me! I am a lucky duck! I have a wonderful family and I have Max. He’s here with me now, as he always is. It is so peaceful and restful. I am just going to enjoy the moment.
