Two things.
First, I sometimes hold back from giving my absolute all to what I do. Because of being judged. What might people think? About what I look like or sound like. Or what I am doing. What might they read into it?
Is this holding me and other people back from creating the most timelessly beautiful things I can?
Yes. I need to work on this.
Second, I don’t want to die. But I know I will. I don’t know how to express my fear and concern about this.
Hope There’s Someone
This song, by Antony and The Johnsons is timelessly beautiful. And expresses better than anything I’ve ever said, how I feel about dying. It addresses both of my aforementioned issues, in one.
If this is the first time you’ve heard this artist – I hope you love what they do.
Oh I’m scared of the middle place
Between light and nowhere
I don’t want to be the one
Left in there, left in there
