I’ve been studying for a new technical certification exam for the last few months and on Monday I sat for the exam and passed it. Over the following days I’ve found myself feeling guilty and anxious in my free time. Eventually I realized the source of my anxiety is that my mind hasn’t caught up to the fact that I achieved all that I wanted during The July Revolution. It’s done.
Time for some rest.

“The mystery of human existence lies not in just staying alive, but in finding something to live for.”

By the false azure in the windowpane;
I was the smudge of ashen fluff--and I
Lived on, flew on, in the reflected sky.
