understanding
it’s not for everyone. not everyone will be born with it. most certainly, not everyone will grow into it either. so what do you do when you are the one? and no one else isn’t? good question. you do what you do best. you understand. you understand because no one else can.

reflection
i wanna burn bright like a star in the night
fall, fall and surrender it all
sing awhile and believe like a child

shine on
shine on me

when things go wrong, as they sometimes will, when the road you’re trudging seems all uphill, when the funds are low and the debts are high, and you want to smile, but you have to sigh, when care is pressing you down a bit, rest, if you must, but don’t you quit. life is queer with its twists and…
