This is not just a silly side project. This is not just fancy quotes and happy songs and pretty pictures. This is me documenting an entire way of living.
In going through my writings over the last few years, I have found them littered with themes of longing and passion, of wanting love and wanting to give love. Through the desperation, there has always been a deep desire for something more.
I can’t possibly be alone in this.
My iTunes has songs with titles like “More Than It Seems”, “More Than Useless”, “More Than A Love Song” and “More Time.”
There are lyrics, screaming out people’s dissatisfaction with what is and their hope for something more:
If I could believe the dreams inside, I am capable more than it seems.
Push the urge away to wake up feeling just the same as yesterday.
I see it in your eyes, you just want to fly – so what’s stopping you, my love?
It’s hard to believe I was cool with the days that I wasted – complacent and tasteless and bored.
There is more than we can see, from this tiny vantage point in this vast eternity.
I believe that deep down inside of each of us, we have a desire to do more, to be more, to live more and to love more.
This is where I will keep track of my attempts to do just that.

Listen up, I got a question here
Would anybody miss you if you disappeared?
Well your life is the song that you sing
And the whole wide world is listening
Well the answer to the question is
You were created, your life is a gift and
The lights are shining on you today, ‘cause
You got something to say
