9-5

There are things in life you get to hold onto. There’s also things you have to part with. For one, you don’t normally get to keep your first car. Another thing is you don’t get to keep your first love because you grow (which is a good thing). While you grow you have to keep moving, so you’re never really going to be in the same place. Now that’s a good thing and all but sometimes (sometimes) don’t you wish you could just stick around for awhile? Or maybe go back to that feeling you had when you get to meet that person that got your wheels turning again. Now this post isn’t about love or admiration for someone ( because love stinks)or heartbreak because we all have had that one way or another.  This post is about going to concerts with your best friends and holding their hand so tight because you can’t handle how starstruck you are hearing your favorite song. When the lights go down and you know the show is about to start. That feeling when you know you spent too much on a concert ticket to be second row to your favorite band. There are also those moments of goodbye when you leave at the ass crack of dawn to make it back home to get to work on time but, your grandma makes sure to give you a kiss goodbye at the front door as she tears up. Something that most people forget is that these moments when you watch someone leave or you get to run up and say hello again is precious. There is always one way in and one way out but it’s up to you how that route goes. Or maybe when you’re about to pee your pants on your way home. Standby. Most days we get up and do our daily 9-5 schedule but the days you get to watch a sunrise or sunset with music or some friends are something to look out for. Pitstops are crucial on a trip you have to go back to the places that remind you of the people you are closest with it’s never the same like the first time around obviously but there is the energy around it. Just like a drive you’ve done more than you can count on your fingers and toes listening to a cd over and over again with your mom. Sending love your way to all my pals and confidants because behind it all you’re all on my mind one way or another.
