on true nature

christy --[adjective]: Like in nature to a train-riding hobo

this is how i would be defined in the dictionary, according to a certain website. fitting, i suppose. maybe i am a train-riding hobo. or was in another life. either way, it certainly sounds interesting.

actually, it is a quite suitable sum-up. for the most part, anyway. a hobo, according to wikipedia, is something of a wandering homeless person with a habit of hopping freight trains, moving from town to town in search of work. something to do. not necessarily a dream, but it has potential. typically, this lifestyle is/was forced upon the less fortunate, showing up especially during the great depression. nowadays, however, with work available all over, in most cases, one could play the travelling hobo card as an excuse to see the world. don't get me wrong, this might not be a forever kind of thing, but it could be a freeing experience.

imagine, no possessions. no roots. no obligations. learning to appreciate the little things. seeing the world through these eyes would, i think, open up the heart. it is of invaluable importance that we understand and appreciate the things that we take for granted.

excuse me please. i think i'll go hop a train.
