Meditation, reflection, study — these things will always have a place in my life, and a fairly important one. But as I get older, I tend to learn a greater share of lessons precisely when I’m not purposefully trying to puzzle them out. When I was younger, I was much more on a Mission for Truth, but now it’s more about getting out of my own way and letting truths just sort of arrive.
Now that I’ve written that out, it sounds a bit crunchy, maybe even silly. But I’ve had something like the above on my mind for a few days now, and maybe you can generally smell what I’m cooking.
You should also know that for the first time on this song, I’m banging on my red sparkly bass drum.
“get on with it”
had a kinda rough one today
where i wish i had nothing to say
i had a will but there wasn’t a way
to get on with itone minute freaked out and bored
and in the next one i fall on my sword
toy prizes galore
get on with itand everybody’s seen what i’ve probably seen
and everybody’s been what i might could’ve been
but then tomorrow never knows what it means
get on with itand maybe it’s true that eternity’s near
and we can’t help but feed a culture of fear
but if that’s too big to fail that’s too big to revere
get on with it
