“i know everything is out there, that’s why they call it everything. i know there are times when you go to lay your head to rest and have a moment of brilliance that will grow into a perfect order of words. but you will fall asleep instead of painting it down on paper, and when you wake up you will have forgotten the idea completely and miss it like a front tooth, but at least you know how to recognize moments of brilliance, because even at your worst, you are F-in’ incredible, it comes honest. so return to yourself, even if you are already there, because no matter where you go, or how hard you try, or what you do, the only person you’re ever gonna get to be, and i know it— thank God— is YOU!”

DTD,
Words can be cheap. Sometimes they mean more than others. But with meaning and the fierce passion of beauty and life, I dedicate this blog-of-my-brief-season-here to you in hope that you continue to fight the good faith that we sing of. Thank you for teaching me how to capture the distance of friendship with your faithful words. Happy belated birthday - you are grouse, know that much!
