Some people you just know where they are at all times. Some people may be strutting around the globe and you have no idea where they are now.
Some people lead exciting lives and are constantly traveling. While others have their same routine day in and day out.
Some people don't want to be settled, while others yearn for stability.
I like knowing. I like keeping tabs on people. Not in any creepy sort of way, and not for any controlling reasons. It is just reassuring to me to know where certain people are. I like knowing that my mother is at home. Or my father is at work. If my parents were hippys and constantly moved... well I would have been a flower child.
A friend once asked me why I cared or wanted to know where they were going to be for the year. I said it reassures me even if we are not talking or near each other to know where you are. Kind of like a parent knows that after tucking in his or her child that child is in bed.
I can look up at the night sky and wonder if you are looking up too. I may not be with you but I know where you are.
Today was my brother's birthday. I forgot. Or I didn't know to begin with. Happy birthday brother, wherever you are.
Why wherever you are?
