The Insignificant
Note: Wrote what came to mind whilst hearing the beautiful melody "The Mighty Rio Grande". Plenty of people cross the Rio Grande which runs throughout Mexico. It's the fifth largest in North America, according to Google, and 20th longest river in the entire world. It runs through wilderness, villages, and beside homes. And it made me think of physical rivers and how long they are. If you were to frequent them enough you'd eventually get to know it so intimately that you know what particular spot is coming up next. And these spots make you feel some type of way. Like when you've lived in a town long enough you know the gas station around the corner, the old woman that waits at the bus stop everyday at 9AM, the crack in the sidewalk that hasn't been fixed since you were in sixth grade. You just get to know it intimately, yet, there's a lot more up ahead you don't know. I guess that's more or less what I was thinking.
