| | Today is my first day back inside my home in Delaware as a free man. I am no longer bound to the Army and there is no likelyhood of my ever deploying again. It's a strange sensation, I feel like I am existing on multiple planes. I am hyper-aware. Everything seems familiar and yet brand new simultaneously. Images, colors and sounds flash across my field of perception. It's as if I have additional senses beyond those five with which I was born. I have another organ capable of detecting rays of possibilties, hopes, and future struggles- but my mind is only passingly familiar with how to interpret these impulses from this yet unnamed organ and can only process snippets of information. I feel like I could pass through the walls of my house unhindered. If I tried just a little harder I could cover a mile with a single step, jump up to such a height that I could take in the whole city before me in my field of view. If I were to breathe in just a little deeper I'd absorb the thoughts and psychic emanations from my sleeping neighbors and experience their dreams. The world unfolds before me like drop of red colored water released into the clear blue ocean, and its secrets are mine. Tomorrow this will all have passed, but the possibilities remain.
