Sept 4 – Downtown night


I need a change. I need fresh air.

I always like to wander around. I used to go out just by myself and walk with no purpose just for the sake of changing my mind. Walking would help me clear my mind of all the sadness and loneliness I’ve had during the day.

My wife and I for some sad reason have been growing apart and tonight after she ‘locked’ herself up in her bedroom, I decided to go out and have a walk. But instead of a walk around the neighborhood like I usually do, I took the car and went downtown.

I parked the car downtown and decided to walk from there. I walked and walked trying to find popular places where people would gather, trying to find cheerful places. Unfortunately, it was late on a sunday night and the streets where mostly empty.

After walking for 2 hours, I went back home, drained but relieved. It’s a weird relief thought, a sort of a lie. A lie that cleared my mind of my current situation and allowed me to face another week with a relieved mind.

Just fooling myself.
