it's the things you never do that haunt you. the tragedy is found in the waking up of every day and repeating that nothingness, time and again. to wonder. not knowing, but feeling that sense of loss. that you've missed out on something. that you're incomplete. that everything you have will someday fade away, or the things you've collected will depreciate in value, break, rust, or be thrown away entirely. we want to leave behind stories that will keep us alive forever. we want a life to reflect the burning fire inside of us. a flame that can't be snuffed out with senseless pursuits of tangeable things, trophy wives, or other fickle desires. this life is what we do with it.

this one's for the people feeling burned out chasing longshot dreams.

this one's for the people who everyone else thinks is fucking crazy for keeping hope alive.

keep your chin up. things can be a drag, but nothing's a bigger drag than people who don't really care all that much about much of anything. keep your heart on your sleeve like it's your badge of honour.
