everyone has defined everything
in every way

This piece of prose was originally posted in my previous internet-based writing receptacle. I stumbled upon it during some Twitter-induced reminiscing and thought it was worth sharing here. Maybe I am re-blogging due to writer's block. Maybe I'm just preoccupied.

Everyone has defined everything in every way. Look hard enough and you can find the words you want to hear. It is possible and dangerous to make your favorite songs seem relevant. You're only fooling yourself that you are incapable of making your own meaning. We can all wield a special kind of self-focus that generously shares with the world what we're thinking. We are all poets, and every moment is another chance to stand by what we really feel. Open up your heart: you will not be afraid of what you find.
