Quite recently someone said something to me,

 that quite frankly has stuck with me

that has really ever been said to me before. 

They said in a bit of a heated moment, 

At the time, I thought it was indeed quite siLLy. 

I'm more than just a dreamer, but then I realized I am not. 

I am nothing more {nor far from anything less} than a dreamer. 

Define dream: A series of thoughts, images or sensations. 

Define Dreamer: A person who experiences these things, as mentioned above. 

What better to be than a dreamer?

A person who experiences of the world 

 thoughts, images or sensations.  

For without those words, the world seems 

For what is life without wishes?

Without hopes?

Without faith in those dreams?

....and I've kept pondering about Africa, and my life in general. 

My spirit, it longs more than anything to be free. 

I'm not ready to be tied down. 

I'm not ready to run away from being who I am, not right now, not ever. 

For there is something in my soul that yearns to speak for many who have no voices. 

Maybe that it is Africa? Maybe that is in Neuro?

Because if not, if I cannot speak, if I cannot dream I am left feeling simply, 

And it all reality, I never want to go back , 

go back to feeling like I can't breath. 

Like there is nothing but endless monotony. 

Go back to feeling like I can't speak, 

as if I can't speak my mind. 

As if I have to fit into a cookie cutter mold. 

and maybe I've been trying to convince myself, 

but I am not ready. 

So I'm taking a leap of faith, 

First you have to run, 

and then you take a leap of faith. 

You may not know where it will take you, 

but there is something so tied, 

--But this is just another autobiography, examining the prosopography of me.
