lee's place in space

"still" from California Literacy PSA "Blast-Off"

(edited by lee sjostrom)

So, are we nearly there? Is our destination far?

I'm getting weary. My eyes are blurry. My heart is pounding.

There's still so many steps to climb. When will we get there?

How can we keep going? Is it all real?

Or is it only an illusion that there's something ahead of us,

something to walk towards?

I don't know. Do you? We're taking this journey together, but ultimately

we're alone and apart.

We don't know each other, but we're friends now,

forever bonded by our sharing of this journey.

Will we reach our destination together?

Or will I leave you behind?

Will you, perhaps, leave me behind?

Does it matter? Yes. It matters, but I don't know why.

Maybe because you're me, and I'm you, and we're both here now.

I'm here now.

And the journey seems endless...
