I watched my favorite movie over and over and over yesterday and today, and I have this one song running through my head. in this song the guy, Jack, sang "I ain't gettin' any younger, and before my dyin' day I want space, not just air. Let them laugh in my face I don't care." I could watch that movie for hours and I wouldn't get bored. The only problem is, every time I watch it, I want to get out of this busy town, and go somewhere, that I can be free to run through a field of daisies. I know it sounds crazy. The song also says "Where does it say we have to live and die here? Where does it say a guy can't catch a break? Why should we only take what we're given? Why should we spend our whole life livin,trapped where there ain't no future, even at 17, breakin our back for someone else's sake." I guess I probably take those words way to seriously. It is silly of me to think the way I have been lately, and I think I need someone to talk me down from this high i'm on. All I want is space, room to gaze and looking beyond my front door and only seeing grass and blue skies. I want space, not just air. Let my family laugh in my face, I don't care. I need out of this place, I need to be able to see something other than the building next to me. I want to open the window and feel the breeze of the country air.

Sorry this isn't very interesting, I need something other than my brainstorms to write about.. I have too much time to waste, and my imagination runs wild... Probably a good sign i should get a real job, huh? lol.... give me ideas and feedback...

Actually it' s a good article Ashley. I could never stand to live in a busy town again. I have lived in the city and in the "country" and I love living out where I have some "space".

I know exactly how you feel. Living in a city or large town can make you start to feel cramped. It's good to get away from the crowds and bustle of city life. The slower, quieter pace of country living can't be beat IMHO.

Keep writing, I enjoy reading your thoughts.
