Wandering Wondering

I was so tired from the lack of sleep so I laid down as close to the edge of the railing of the ferry. I fell asleep to the gentle sound of Bon iver...phrases like "I told you to be patient...fine...balanced...kind" "I can see for miles, miles, miles" amd "I was no that magnificent" caught me as I waved in and out of sleep. When I finally awoke I turned around to face the ocean. I felt as if I was the only one floating along the ocean, the wind blowing me along, and I had the sensation as this journey would never end. But in that moment I remember putting together all the pieces of my wonderful weekend and the days and weeks that led up to this moment. My appreciation for my life back home sunk in but even more my love affair with Thailand surfaced. As I lay there gazing out into the open water and focusing on reflection the sun was playing upon the water I admitted to myself how I'm falling in love with Thailand and the adventure that every single moment has brought me. It's been a month since I first arrived in Thailand and in that time I've experienced so many waves of emotions but as its boiled down to this point I couldn't e any happier.
Yesterday alone threw so many surprises at me that even as I sit here in this tiny cafe I wonder what can happen just stepping out into the wet streets of bangkok.
The island of Koh Tao is truly wonderful and we couldn't have gotten more luckier through the people we met. Though I like going to school and being in a certain order there is something extremely attractive about living an island life, hoping around here and there for sometime. Of course if I plan on doing this i would choose to wait till I'm done with school. But you must admit, there are times in our lives when we question what it would be to drop everything and begin somewhere else. Though for now the ability to live in Bangkok, and then easily pick up my bag and wander to paradise is pretty amazing. Like I said, this country already has a hold of me, though the people and the settings I've become very much aware of my outlook on the world and the path in which I would like my life to go.
So here I am just a little wild thing running along wandering, wondering and meeting other wild things. Life in the jungle ain't so bad.
