ROOTLESS TREE



When you try your best, but you don't succeed

When you get what you want, but not what you need

When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep

Stuck in reverse


And the tears come streaming down your face

When you lose something you can't replace

When you love someone but it goes to waste

Could it be worse?


Lights will guide you home,

And ignite your bones,

And I will try to fix you,

High up above or down below

When you're too in love to let it go

But if you never try you'll never know

Just what you're worth


Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face

When you lose something you cannot replace

Tears stream down your face

And I


Tears stream down your face

I promise you I will learn from my mistakes

Tears stream down your face

And I


Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

WHAT THE F?


A couple things have happened recently that made me take a mental step back and they both revolved around the things people say vs. the things people do. I know that I have high standards for people but I don’t think they’re unreasonable.

Basically…

When you say you’re going to do something, you should do it.

If you are doing one thing, but really want to be doing something else, have the common courtesy to do the thing you want to be doing and stop wasting everybody’s time!

If you are trying to decide between doing one thing even though it’s less comfortable for you and doing the other at the expense of another person…choose the less comfortable.

Have a little respect.

Treat people the way you’d want to be treated.

And take a chance every once in a while.
STOP PLAYING IT SO DAMN SAFE.

That’s it.
Off my soap box for now.

But I have a lot of decisions to make and I feel like not enough time to make them.

OH! Right!
And how could I forget….

NEVER, EVER, EVER disrespect yourself.
And ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS surround yourself with people who feel the same way!

You’re worth it.
I promise.
