The Galapagos Turtles

[monologue or dialogue with 2 characters alternating lines] 

I feel like I’m an old soul. 

I read a book called Many Lives Many Masters by Doctor Someone – a very reputable psychiatrist, psychologist, something; and it blew my mind. 

I don’t necessarily believe in reincarnation, but it occurs to me that my soul has lived in past lives and has had lots of experiences. 

I’m an old soul and sometimes I think it can bore others. 

I’m not adventurous and I’m fine with that, but deep exchanges aren’t what fuel a lot of people. I, personally, can’t get enough. It’s hard for me to be lighter in a way that might be more attractive to others. 

Maybe there’s a little insecurity there like “ehh, I’m not fun enough” or “people don’t want to mess with me – I’m deep” which sounds pretentious; but I think a lot, I live up here a lot. 

I just feel like a handful you know? I don’t think I’ve found someone who can keep up with that yet. 

But I may just have to wait.
