Tick tock, tick tock, goes the clock. Can't fight the night, ya know that's right.

   ...Corny...

   Skimming through music and listening to music I used to listen to back in the day. From Coolio, 2Pac, Snoop, Bone Thugs, Notorious B, Warren G, to Elton John, Etta James, Eminem, Queen,  you name it. To now, Ollie, Maroon 5, Ed Sheeran, John Legend, Sam Smith, Billie Eilish, etc., and just smashing it all onto a playlist. Kinda been feelin old vibes with music lately. 

   I love the oldies, but I also love old R&B & Hiphop. I just love music in general. 

   ...Kinda makes me wanna drive the roads for a while while they're empty listening to the mix of music. Might consider it in a bit. 

   I just love the night. Maybe one of the few reasons I don't sleep well at night, sometimes not at all. Feels like one of those nights. I don't mind though, I just roll with it and will find sleep another night. 

   My thoughts are running as usual, but I'm mainly thinking of all that I'm grateful for. You really don't know what life brings-what tomorrow holds, but the mystery is nice. I like living in the now, just living in general. 

   A tree does not look for the storms nor does it look for the sun, it just grows, stretching its limbs, grasping its roots deeper within the earth and just being in the stillness of it all.

   May not make much sense to many, but my mind likes to get inspiration from nature.

   The simplicity of nature, of anything come to think about it, is simply lovely and grand. I really don't want to take anything or anyone for granted. I value life, myself and those I care and love. The rest of everything else can fade, as it should.

   ...We're in a material world full of material things and miss out on too much. We think we always have tomorrow to do the things we want, to live, the love, to hold, to dance to our favorite songs or try something new, etc. To even tell someone how much they matter to you, that you love them. Tomorrow isn't guaranteed for anyone. Although the past is the past and it is unchangeable, I still wish at times I could of told those I loved how much I loved and appreciated them. But it's taught me to do it now while I have the opportunity and I will.

   What matters is that we live in our truth, not just for others, but also for ourselves. Live, love, but take no shit.

   ...I think I'll end it here. I may just take a drive after all.

   Until next time....
