Define and Refine

A mind is a terrible thing to waste
to taste
to burn
to earn
to turn inside out and make into something new
BUT YOU CAN DO IT
change begins IN HERE
change begins RIGHT NOW
we only ever experience WHAT we experience WHEN we experience it RIGHT NOW
THERE IS NO LATER
there is no BETTER TIME
START WHERE YOU ARE
WHERE are you?
WHO are you?
do you know?
DO I KNOW?
define it REFINE IT REPEAT
DEFINE IT refine it repeat
who are you?
WHO ARE YOU?
you are NOT your THOUGHTS
you are NOT your FEELINGS
you are GREATER than the SUM of your PARTS
YOU CAN BE WHO YOU WANT
YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU WANT
YOU ARE free
LIFE IS free
can i buy in?
no
can i get more?
no
I DON’T KNOW BUT
this is your chance NOW
right HERE right NOW
EMBRACE THE CHANGE
why should i change?
shoulds can dissolve
BUT CHANGE REMAINS
become
WHO
you
ARE

The Weekend

Kick back, relax, let it all hang out, don't bother with the door, just leave it open, it's the weekend.

Spend time outdoors, commune with nature, get your head straight, don't bother with the door, just leave it open, it's the weekend.

Smell the breeze blowing through your hair, feel the sun on your skin, have a laugh at your own expense, breathe deep.

Live through yourself, enjoy whatever weather whether good, bad, or better, don't get down up whatever, don't bother with the door just leave it open, it's the weekend.

Let the sun shine if it's shining, clouds cover if their covering, spring rain if it's raining, just be.

Don't have to take time deciding just define and refine it, go for the glory, be free.

Make waves if you need them to get where you're going, if you don't know where you're going don't make waves, and try to avoid making them even if you do know where your headed, anyway. Alright.

Ride the wave(s).

Don't bother with the door, just leave it open, it's the weekend.

Satchel II

Satchel wiped his mouth, stood up from the bar and pulled the hundred dollar bill from his pocket. He smoothed and straightened it out carefully. He drained the last of his coffee and set the mug down on the one hundred dollar bill.

"Thank you, m'am," he called, and headed for the exit. The bell on the door rang out as he left.

At the truck, Satchel stood and looked up at the sun starting to climb over the buildings. It was going to be a beautiful day.
