Me Again...

It's me again.

Yes me. The weird 25 year old woman who is sitting in front of a water fountain keeping herself company.

Yes, I'm sitting in the blazing hot sun, hoping to get a tan. I'm aiming my legs in the direction of the sun's rays, believing I will return to the office a new woman. Well Atleast a woman with a new skin tone.

Yes, that's me.

I'm reflecting and soaking in. I'm basking in my own thoughts of past and present memories.

I'm remembering the time that a nice, young man at work called me within four minutes of leaving my office. He asked me out for drinks or dinner, as he fumbled with words.

My legs are now burning... Good cause. Good cause.

The self assured individual that he was... Was nervous as he attempted to get a positive response from the girl he had just met. And to be quite honest, I think I was even thinking of him as I received the call, smiling.

Yes, that's me thinking. Thinking so much I just went back to my tanning station to retrieve my forgotten umbrella. But hey, I remembered.

So back to my story...

I'm not sure how I turned the guy down. I can't remember. But what I do remember is that I knew I'd never forget that particular, daring go-getter of a man. He knew what he wanted and knew he couldn't miss his chance. So he took a plunge. Very admirable.

So regardless of whether or not I got my tan from sitting here sweating. I know that every moment of thought and reflection is worth while. Because some moments are worth remembering.

Remember the right ones. Don't let go of those moments. Be daring enough to dream. Because one day, that dream will become a reality. And that realty will be the ultimate reward you have been saving yourself for.
