He smiled.
Looked into my eyes.
And left.

I knew it wasn’t a riddle; the words were too simple the
meaning too obvious.
I knew what he meant but I was never the kind that takes
advice easily.
I’m genetically engineered to always take the long way to
get somewhere.
I walked away, continued admiring the swans and smiling to
the sun. He was just another random guy with a god complex or at least the
impression that wisdom runs through his veins. Under no circumstance the type
of person I would take seriously.
A couple of days ago I remembered him, his twisted smile. It
was staring back at me from the mirror.
My twisted smile turned to a grin and
the grin into a slight laugh. I’ve changed so much in just a couple of
months. I’m not afraid anymore to speak
up, laugh out loud, look into people’s eyes or leave. Now I admire seagulls,
smile to the wind and walk forward. I'm full of energy even when running on two
hours of sleep a cup of mocha and a bar of bounty. Silence scares me. Loneliness
makes me feel claustrophobic. I feed on the rush, the flow of information,
change and challenge. I still stumble from time to time but only to make sure
that the ground is still there. I know that great things wait ahead; I feel it
in my bones.
It’s hard to explain everything that's happening or that I’m
feeling now.
But it feels damn good!
