Wow. We made it. I can’t believe I actually finished another one of these monsters. Let me tell ya, it wasn’t easy. I felt like quitting a few times, after I started to get busy and life stuff came up. But the support I got from the neat people in my life urged me onward. … Continue reading Day 30: Death’s Song – City & Color
I like learning about geneaology. It’s fun to look back at the past and see where parts of you have come from, whether biological or adopted. Some things are inherited, like I get my blue eyes from my dad, and other things are learned, like how I sometimes sound like my mom when I get … Continue reading Day 29: Roots – Imagine Dragons
It can be hard to know when you’ve “made it” in life. It kind of seems like there’s a series of “made its.” Graduations, marriages, promotions. You might feel for a second that you’re finally there, and life is good. Sometimes though, the fun part is in the journey. Who cares if you make it, … Continue reading Day 28: When I Get There – Ben Rector

When it’s June and you’re 23, that means it’s wedding season. Everyone is getting married. The amount of social media posts can get a bit ridiculous, but you have to admit it’s a little fun too. It’s exciting to see two people in love. There is that dangerous part of love, too, called the honeymoon … Continue reading Day 25: Girl Harbor – Manchester Orchestra
Let’s talk about Facebook. And how easy it is to stalk people. I mean “stalk” in the best way, not like, following them around all creepy, but…following them around online…less creepily. Okay, I guess it’s still a little creepy. But still. Facebook has made it easy to catch up with people you’ve lost touch with … Continue reading Day 24: Where Are You Now – Mumford & Sons
I’ve always been a daydreamer. I don’t say that to toot my own horn. It’s actually gotten me in trouble more than enough times, especially in school situations. My brain trails off somewhere and before I know it, I have no idea what the other person is talking about. It’s not difficult to do, especially … Continue reading Day 23: Lost in My Mind – The Head and the Heart
A sad fact of life is that people leave. They leave temporarily or permanently from our lives. It’s sad when a best friend moves across the country, when a wife leaves her husband, or when a brother or son dies an untimely death. To “leave” has a lot of meanings but typically a negative emotion. … Continue reading Day 22: Headlights – The Classic Crime
Update, March 2023: Wow y’all. I did not expect to become one of the internet’s leading experts on this song! What a huge responsibility. This post was published over three years ago and continues to be one of my top-performing posts. I figured it might be time to revisit what I wrote here and update my … Continue reading Day 21: I Know How to Speak – Manchester Orchestra (Updated March 2023)
Life poses some interesting questions. It’s easy to go about your life ignoring them and simply living, but sometimes they jump out and grab you and don’t let go. For me, that happens late at night when I can’t sleep. Thoughts start racing around in my head – what is life? Is it a dream? … Continue reading Day 20: All is As All Should Be – The Dear Hunter
