toss up



--its always a toss up...

... take the highway back to the apartment or drive through downtown--



Tonight I took the highway. Tonight was a big picture kind of night. From the highway, you can see all of Grand Rapids for about one minute...one glorious, profound minute. You can see how small you are for one humbling minute. And suddenly, it didnt matter how tired I am going to be tomorrow. Life goes on, the cars keep driving, people keep buying their coffee in the morning and their beers after 5.

Sometimes that is reassuring.



Sometimes you just need to stand on top of a building in the middle of the night to feel real again.
