One thing that will always amaze me? The simplicity of summer. When I think of summer everything good, every calm, blissful, good feeling comes to mind. Summertime is that rare time where adults are able to pretend. They are able to forget all the things they know about life, the unpredictable, mysterious, scary, amazing world we live in, and act as if they were a child again. No, not the immature, uneducated behavior a child has but the innocent and pure essence of a child. How they can be so happy for no reason, yet for every reason at the same time. The "good seer".

Summer is that open door, the opportunity to forget the stress, burdens, and evil of everyday life, and just let go. You are able to do what you want, when you want. Freedom.

One of the earliest memories I have as a child is during the summer months. I was laying out in my backyard, the cool grass tickling my back as I gaze at the sky. I have this little game I played where I'd try to count as many airplanes as I could spot. It would go for hours, counting, then losing track, giggling I would start over again. It was amazing how at ease I was just being. Listening to the thump-thump of my heart, thinking, imagining, creating. It is so wonderful.

This summer is my chance to escape. Get away from my parents, school, the drama, life, and just live my summer with him, my love, my Eli. Eli is my "summer", my escape. He makes me feel as though everything is okay, everything is good. He makes me happy just being himself. When I spend time with him, it is as if we were in a bubble, our own world where it is summer all the time. Nothing bad can slip inside this magical world. It is only me and him. Simply us.
