on a train to philadelphia

Sunlight flashes as it streams through the leaves and finds its way into my eyes.
There are so many trees here on the east coast. 
The air feels fresh and I can breathe again.
In Chicago I feel like I don't breathe enough. 
Suffocation of my emotions mostly.
It's all a game.
We're just a complicated and selfish form of bacteria destroying the beauty of nature with ambition and industry. 
Our sole purpose to attach ourselves and reproduce to continue a piece of our own existence on this planet.
To leave behind our footprint.
Desire to have a unique stamp.
We are all kinetically the same.
We share the same hopefulness and longing for happiness and contentment. 
We create our own pain and troubles.
I am restless.
I seek the thrill of exploration through travel and interactions with strangers who cross my path.
Damn, I am cynical. 
Save the children!
