A Life Worth Living

It's been a minute since I last wrote a song. The last few months have been busy and chaotic. But I don't do myself any favors by not writing. I need this.

I feel myself get older every year, and I frighten when I think about the future. But lately, I realize that it's not just about the future. I also need to think about the present. I don't have forever to think about and prepare for the kind of life I want to live. I don't have forever to save money and plan it all out and dream about how great it will be.

It turns out that I'm already living, and there is no practice round. I don't want to spend my youth worrying about my future and grow old never having lived in the present. I don't want to fritter my life away with noise and anxiety.

As these marks of time accumulate on my skin and on my soul, I want theme to tell a good story, not a mediocre one. I want to have lived a life worth living.
