Parasite

Lately, I've been voraciously searching articles, movies, books, songs, and conversation for something I can't quite put my finger on. I find myself up way too late clicking on one more blog or song hoping I'll stumble on whatever it is I need to hear. I know it's not quite advice or a pep talk, and I know it's not just a story that feels like mine. It's like I'm constantly searching for something specific that will be life shifting in some way, but I have no idea what it is. The Way Way Back and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty come close. Keaton Henson and a few friends have gotten within striking distance, but no dice. Lately, I've been thinking that whatever I'm wanting or needing is going to come from me. I think a creation from my own mind will stifle the fear or doubt or whatever is living in my bones and making me so hungry. I resolve to start writing more.

  1. I am compelled to also recognize One Direction's "Story of My Life." Some of the words just continue to resonate and they're adorable.
