this topic gets the ol' gears a workin, grinding against the harsh reality of my own contentedness and for how long i've embraced it with open arms. only recently have i started to branch out more and do more things which i felt truly emotionally and experiencially sating.
on that same board, there is a thread about "the best compliment you've ever received." one guy shared this: two guys talking as I was packing up after a show: "[suapyg] plays the drums like the police are waiting for him outside." "No, [suapyg] LIVES HIS LIFE like the police are waiting for him outside."
merely reading that fed the fizzling spark within me, inducing a flicker reflecting the potential of a roaring inferno. occasionally, i lose sight of the warmth and tenacity of that potential, but ultimately, i know it's there. and i will honor it.
i swear it.
