A Year Ago: 'I was not aware until recently.  I did not know this music existed and I am sad for the time I missed and simultaneously glad for being here now. I'm not going to provide details of this band.  If you are interested please go ahead and search for that information yourself.  If you care, it may bring a smile.   I love the music I have heard from this band so far. Literally, everything makes me smile and feel an uplifted kind f joy that I do not feel often with just music.  Normally there has to be some sort of memory already attached to a song but this album I've been listening to today is phenomenal.  'right out tha gate.' DECIDE. Such a great word.  Yes, there are innumerable possibilities in this world.  Possibilities of the life you could live, the path you could take to lead you, hopefully, to heights of success and happiness you can't even imagine.  But, the thing is, you have to decide.  You can't let yourself sit there and think so much. 

Brooklina

When I look at her
I see every age she's been.
I cycle back through the years and the days, the moments.
Sometimes I look around
and I can see them smiling at her, being proud of her.
I can feel the breeze coming off the ocean on a sunny day.
She's 19 now
and she's strong
and she's sarcastic
she's funny
and she cares.
She doesn't try
to try is to believe you will fail.
She does it.
She dives in and does the thing
and she doesn't need your input.
She may ask your thoughts,
from time to time,
mostly to check herself but also to check you.
don't get left or she'll fly by and get them ankles.
