Growing roots, gathering dust?

I just suddenly realized something. Literally out of nowhere it occurred to me that I'm perfectly content with my surroundings and my life. (Ok, I mean the basic conditions. I could always have a little bit more money and a little bit more time with loved ones etc., but anyways.)

I'm so used to yearning for action, new places, socializing, things to do that I assumed this was the case behind my slight gloominess this time, as well. But I just realized it's quite on the contrary. I'm tired. I long for routine, every-day life, familiar people and places.

Nothing wrong with that at all. For this one, fleeting moment, I have just what I need. It'll go away, I know, and probably too soon, too...

Attitude

I saw a man "jogging" on crutches. You could tell that he wasn't just walking to get from one place to another, but actually exercising. Going a lot faster than your average guy on two feet, too. There's proper attitude for you!

Speaking of attitude, I'm trying to adjust mine. So far, I've been stressing and fretting about not finding a job for the summer. Of course, I'd need the money, but I do have some to live on, so I shouldn't complain. This was, after all, what I wanted in the first place: the possibility to start working on my MA thesis over the summer, in my own speed. Doing just that today - reading background material and enjoying the beautiful sunshine at the same time :)
