Vacations Of The Mind part 1A Story by StephenVacations Of The Mind Episode: 1
Somewhere I read that our memories are a vacation taken by our minds. If
this is true than my mind is on vacation all the time. I find myself drifting
to a different time and a much different place.
Somedays I just need to escape from the things of the present. I need to
retreat to a time of simpler things. A time without all the wonders of the
current age (internet, cell phones, Facebook). I would like to return to a time
with Tonka trucks, Matchbox cars and dirt.
I find myself on a Spider-man big wheel with my grandpa pushing me around the
block. I can see myself sitting on a school bus going to kindergarten with my
grandpa on the same bus making sure I got there (try doing that today). He was
Awesome. Today he is gone, but looking back I now realize that he was AWESOME.
