The Pictures We Make

You think you know what you want. You have a picture in your head. A pleasant noise in the background.

But what you're really looking at, is a stepping stone. A point in a time. Because once that picture becomes real, you can see new things.

A new picture emerges. A new point. Just a little bit further away.

And so you find yourself wanting this new, better picture.

There is nothing wrong with this.

The Excuses

I’ve been on holiday. Thank you for your patience.

The Reasons To Believe

The sun sparkles off water.

A bird passes you.

Enough food.

All reasons to believe that somewhere in the world, somehow, great things are possible.

The Closer

You lie in bed, staring at the ceiling and counting crows.

Someone.

Anyone.

But anyone could be someone if only you looked a little closer.

The Acoustics

You turn on the radio and fall in love with the shape of someone's voice box. And then you hear the size of their heart. The width of their pain. And the length of their dreams.

The End Of The Line

And so your great grandfathers and mothers died working the earth, generation upon generation since the dawn of time, so that one day, you could sit here and be able to read this. To enjoy life. To play. To love.

You owe it to them to have more fun.

The Reality Of It

Just between you and me, no one really knows what's going on.
