...and as I woke up today, I started staring out the window of my room at the outside world. At the sky, and as the sky falls against my back I see a gray, white, and blue cloud collage and then goes on for what could be forever, I feel so alive. So fortunate, I remember a few years ago thinking about what life would be like at the age I'm in now and just the future in general and I could have never guessed that things would be like this, even though things right now aren't that interesting. But still, I'd never thought I'd be facing the darkest...and brightest...parts of myself almost simultaneously, Being allowed so close to the spirit of creation and destruction. Its always been here for all of us, it cradles us as children and its present at every moment and every mistake. It comforts us in growth, death, birth, car crashes, microscope stores, camp fires, hotel rooms, hospital beds, in every mall and every zoo. And today, even being on trial with myself I'm more aware than ever that its been with me all along and all we have to do is just accept how little control we have and welcome it. I believe in nothing but love and eternal forward momentum.

I don't know where my life is going, but I KNOW for sure that it's going somewhere great. I've got a lot ahead of me, and believe me my friends this is only the beginning. The stuff I'm starting to write for Cold Capsules constantly reminds me of why I wanted to start this band in the first place. It feels different in all the ways I needed it and me to change...and ohh baby I like it raw.
