I wonder why no one talks about post-festival blues. High decibels of excitement turning into measured, orchestrated cacophonies of routine—work, school, and the humdrum of life. But perhaps there is a way to keep the spirits from wavering? Must I take that online lesson I’ve always thought about? Maybe give my weekends to the animal shelter? Who knows, if all permits, I might find myself a new furry friend. OH, how about the year to come? So much to do and so much to see. Of course, a schedule of fun things there must be to see the year through. And there, I almost forgot, the forgotten hobby hanging up on the wall. Perhaps it’s time I, retune into the rhythm of a brand new routine.”
