Today, if I could...

(inspired by RG and The Blur)

Today, if I could do anything my heart desired...

I would sit on my parents' deck swing, watching the yellowed leaves fall, enjoying the gentle waft of Cache Valley in the fall. I would hug each and every one of my nieces and nephews and try to fill in with hugs the places where words fail to express how much I love them. I would go for a leisurely bike ride. I would not have any assignments, papers, or research to worry about because I would be Ph.inisheD. already.

Instead, I will sniffle and cough my way through the first of this year's colds in Utah County, trying not to break under the sheer weight of the enormous mountains on my plate yet to be traversed...

Someday...
