i got another confession to make...
This may be the third time I've started this post. Hopefully I'll finish it this time.
In fact, I'm writing this post to keep from writing what I really want to write. And there are more than a few things I want to write that I'm afraid to. Be it an e-mail to someone new, or that novel or poem I've talked about writing forever. Writing is a scary thing.
I used to be scared of what others would think of what I wrote. I'm over that, I think. I'm much more afraid of what I will think of what I write. I'm my own worst critic. And I admire such great writing that I'm extra tough on myself.
Is someone getting the best the best the best of you?" That's a simple enough life, but presented as it is in the Foo Fighters' new song, it's tremendously powerful. Because it relates to whatever you want it to. I can relate it to myself and how I apply myself to things. I can relate it to people I truly love and believe in and wonder if they are doing what they need to be doing.
What is the best of me? And is anyone getting it? Maybe in tastes. My best friend gets it. He knows it. He can see it. There are priceless (priceline big?) few others that do.
Any long time readers out there will appreciate this next line...I met a girl the other day.
