Finer Days

I was free for a couple of hours last night and needed to stay near the place that I work. I couldn't bear going to Starbucks or browse through some store, instead I decided to visit the library. I thought about going to the computer terminals to surf the web, but instead I was drawn to the aisles of books. Scanning down each aisle, I came to the political section. It was there that I realized something, that I missed the academic field.

Foreign policy, that is a field that I can get excited about. How I loved those days of checking out several books, and then setting them on the tables and pulling out necessary information. I rented three books, hoping to regain some of that lost passion. How I miss it.
