Alright, Alright

It's been some time and for a reason. Last time I checked in, Rockstar's and Pike Place was flowing through my veins and aside from that, something somewhat special changed, or happened for that matter. I am coy about this change, so maybe ask me sometime.

Bringing me to my completely unrelated point. It's this: it has become readily apparent that things just aren't as fun when they work.

I like the idea of having to slap some greece onto your faulty chains to keep plugging. A pit stop sounds good every once in a while. I like the taste of bitter, just a simple indication that the sweet is somewhere, slowly behind. But there's movement. It's coming.

However, I don't think it has to come. Static is possible and is sometimes all too real. I find it easy to hit that groove, and kick up your feet and be satisfied with GOOD.

I'll let Kanye disagree ("giving up is way harder than trying"), but take with you the strength in knowing you can fall asleep and hit the ground running 8 hours later, regardless of where you are in your battle.

Breathe on, feel the wind. Today doesn't have to be like yesterday, but yesterday can also be the power in knowing that today is better, and tomorrow, will agree.
