#4. i used to know the boundaries of shadows.
the distinction between left and right was divided by the arrow of my compass.
and no one could tell me anything.
but now i just walk in circles around the sundial.
and pray for shade and pray for rain.

i don’t need to externalize who i am anymore. all the slots have been filled.

one foot after the other and no looking back.

don’t say no.

#7. i don’t understand why people have to cut each other down.
just because you have a sword for a tongue doesn’t mean that you have to keep it sharp.
i’m trying to be a better man, but the good Lord knows it’s hard.
and i understand i shouldn’t have said yes.
and i understand i shouldn’t have said no.
and i understand i shouldn’t have given in.
and i understand i shouldn’t have broken out.

#8. I don’t know the way forward, but the direction matters so much less to me than it has in the past.
i am no longer frantically trying to build compasses or erect sundials everywhere i go.
the drum that pounds the beat grows ever louder.

#9. i have never believed in myself more.
this city has melted away so much weakness from my trembling body without me even noticing.
i’m finally learning that it’s ok to live with yourself in mind.
it’s ok to sing too loud and enunciate each syllable in ecstasy at the sheer amazement of existing.
i am no longer a child, and that’s ok.
mercy is a strange but wonderful concept.

to round out the last ten posts leading up to my 1000th, i have decided to tell a little truth for each one.
#10. i moved to new york a little over a year ago. i often creak my weary bones in agony because i feel powerless and have nothing to show for myself, but when i really think about it, i have grown and grown and grown. someday i will hit the mark i’ve been sharpening this arrow for.
so don’t you go and leave me now.
