Thoughts and ideas of a simple guy on the road.

Midnight Air


The fog rolled in with the fall of night, the temperature
steadily creeping down and the ocean breeze filling the air
with its pungent aroma.And as sweet as it seems her cruel
nature lies just under the surface.This is where i find
myself as another august weekend rolls around and we reach
the fringes of summer. It also makes me think with how
little i've been home i come to find happiness in being on
road and seeing new places, at least it keeps me busy and
my mind from getting to proccupied, and I realized how easily
your attitude can change, from frustration to ease, anger to
contentment. It can be the simpliest of things, a smile, a
song, a moment alone, a beautiful view of nature or being
placed in a fearful situation. Controlling your outlook is
key, if you see the good you'll reflect it, now is it possible
to always be happy? I guess so but nobodys perfect, shoot even
Jesus had times where he wasn't happy, but his outlook always
stayed on the big picture so it wasn't an overwhelming emotional
response. I guess basically what I'm saying is, there are things
you can't control, things that destroy dreams, things that
break your heart, things that force you to fight, things that
force you to run for someone elses good. All these things are
part of life and trying to fight every single one of them
only aggrivates, and frustrates because you can't win, so instead
I'll get new dreams, move on, get my knuckles bloody, and blisters
on my feet. Just as long as what I'm doing is right, and part
of the big picture, let it come let it go I'll be right here
and be the man I am. Wherever the road takes me next I'll keep
being me and I hope if nothing else you take away that you don't
always have to win, life is more than that, so pop a top to the
good times and the bad, enjoy lifes finer things, keep it simple
and keep the memories close. Thats all I got for now, God bless
the USA.
