boston public library (in daylight)
i'm sitting inside the boston public library working on my last midterm. i happened to look up at the room i am sitting in and i had to catch my breath. this gorgeous building, the high ceiling, the natural wood tables and chairs, the old musty books and the huge windows. i looked outside for a moment and i see buildings in copley square, lit up in the darkness of the night. it's beautiful, even though it's a cement jungle where i live and i miss mountains and green pastures where the air is clean and i can forget about my cell phone signal. i am moved by the beauty of this city. it's hard to believe i'm here sometimes. i never thought i'd be here, be anywhere outside of buffalo or cleveland. but here i am and i'm trying to take everything in...one moment at a time. i have been blessed with these opportunities to follow my dreams and it's amazing how being in this library can bring all those emotions out of my heart. but it did and i am grateful for the reminder. goodnight.
