music is an absolutely wonderful thing. it can help you through the best of times, the worst of times, the dullest of times, the busiest of times... music makes everyday things better like driving, working out, the movies... i mean, what is a movie without a brilliant movie soundtrack? it is absolutely amazing when you feel a connection with the artist's lyrics.... when you feel like you can relate to every single word and note being sung.
music is really what is getting me through the past couple weeks. i have been going through a confusing point in my life, one similar to the last time i graduated. i mean, seriously, who doesn't have an identity crisis when he/she graduates? you are so unsure of your life, when and where to take the next step. am i making the right choice? am i going too fast? what is it that i want? my mind has recently been full of questions that have no easy answers. but once i turn on some music, i seem to escape from my complicated life. and for that small amount of time, i don't have to think about anything. i can focus in on the words and the notes, and just be somewhere else. it is not easy these days for me to escape my house, but if i put some headphones on, and sit outside, i calm down and feel okay. today, while i sit out in my garage on a night that no longer is summer, but rather the start of fall, i escape again, not having to worry about tomorrow, three months from now or whatever. that i am okay for just a moment. and for now, okay is good enough for me.
Three months and I'm still sober
Picked all my weeds but kept the flowers
But I know it's never really over
