Winter Winds Keeping it simple

[Guest guest]

Hi Y'all~

 

I miss the winter air of the east coast and how it was so

much easier to breath out there especially as the leaves changed

and the winds of change blow in and how this simply opens

the lungs and turns us into steam vents as we breath our

vapor breath while waiting for the bus at the first sign of

snow. I miss that and my first boyfriend Bernie that I married

in college and how we never had a car till we got to Seattle

and how everything sucked after that for us. I sold my car and

this is how I am keeping it simple. There is so much more to

life than sitting in traffic. I get to meet all kinds of cool

'Pepo,' on the bus! My Halloween was Zantastic in that I got to

see everybody and their mama in costume when I changed buses

at the mall and after that on the Bart Train...y'all Seattlites

really need a rail system!...and more bike lanes! Redmond is a

total joke. I used to live there and they call it the Bike capital

of Washington. Oh please! They gotta make way more bike lanes

and hook y'all up with some trains; then we can really keep it

tight. Thanks for hearing me out. That's my long winded email

on keeping it simple. Thanks for the message to keep breathing!

 

Love, Shakti
