Moves
Here's an irony.
Some of my friends know that I'm writing a story called Lonely Roads. It's typically a story reflected on my life and what has happened so far. I have written 2 chpaters so far and it involved people moving. Now the main thing about these chapters is that it says something about moving from one place to another, more specifically, everything changes yet some things always stay the same. Know what I mean? I love travelling stories in general, be it a trip to the market or an out of country experience, travel always has the makings of a good story to tell.
Just this morning, I had a dota tourmanent with some friends of mine and during the morning, I had to go to Myles' place to get a ride. When I got there, everything was all too familiar and then I realized, this was what I had written not so long before. It surprised me that everything resembled the opening scene, even the people involved. Everything else, went like clockwork. Myles and I talked about our history of moving and it was funny because he told me his house's history by numbering each vermin he had eradicated over the course of years (ranging from ants to rats). All the while, sharing with me some handy household poison making tips haha.
It was so much fun to just talk about houses, moving and history. I often wondered if it was possible that a story can reflect so genuinely in the lives of people and now, I think they do. It is lovely the way things turn out and I never stop being fascinated by it. I wonder when I'll move again or some person I know does. The new year is fast approaching and with it, tidings of even greater changes. I never did like changes happening but I like the stories that come with it.
Just something to share
