This is not really relevant to anything outside of this moment. This isn’t about drugging up in the 80s and how it affects us today, Bachelor parties, or This American Life. The consequences of some decisons we make can’t be seen until months or years after the fact and I often wonder how things would play out if things were different. Would we act differently? Would be fundamentally be different? Is it really just a matter of seeing farther than we would otherwise? Or is it more a matter of the options and factors we have on hand? Is comfort finding old family that one had forgotten? New friends? Old friends? Another long run by one’s self?

Should I know defeat when my heart can’t follow?
How would things be different? I get asked “well” and…what’s the response? Just want to be not what I am today? If that’s the case, then what is it that I want to be at the end of the day? And how many times must this mix be replayed? How many times has it played over and over on my iPod and on this website? Is that a sign of things getting old or of an issue that hasn’t been resolved? What distinguishes the two? Of is it just a measurement of the miles I’ve run in between?
