"The Subway Chronicles: Self Control"

[1:17am]

I’m sitting on the subway right now. It’s really late and I just wanted to go home. But you know man…when what you need to do isn’t what actually goes thru in reality.

So I’m sitting here trying to figure out... Self control.

And I find myself asking, "where did mine go?"

When I started supplying everything for myself...

Independent

but never had a voice to ask for help.

So… again..

I’m just sitting here,

Questioning everything that got me here.

Should I be there & not here? Should I be where I lost my self control, when it began to disappear?

Something's telling me no, It’s long gone. But, it can be rebuilt and I’m not alone.

In New York City, so many people have lost their self control. I’ve recently learned that it’s important to roll with what you have right now,

Wherever you go.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods.
