I Walk Alone I Walk Alone

I was requested to take a walk alone. So that's exactly what i did. No Ipod, or anything. While starting this walk i just took a quick look around me, then down to my feet and began my 45 minute thinking venture around my neighborhood.

For the first 5 or 10 minutes i was just looking all around at my surroundings. Looking down at the sidewalk, observing the cracks, weeds and bugs surrounding everything. Then looking at the bushes and trees, admiring the houses to the very well kept, to the abandoned druggy houses. To me they are all one big definition of our little ol' Santa Maria. Everything i see has true history behind all the people that live and have lived here and the effect they left behind.

Then for the rest of the walk i was just thinking about me. What i really meant, what my purpose was for this Earth...I'm a junior in high school and i still have absolutely no clue what career path i want to pursue for the rest of my life. It makes me scared, and sad...but mostly confused. I think about it everyday, talking to my friends and they all seem like they really have it figured out. What am i doing wrong here.

Then finally i see my house again, guess that's the end of my walk alone.
