Take this moment and nail it to the wall. Take every moment and nail it to the wall. Not because its your last but because it isn’t and years from now you will look for it and it will be there for you to tear off and recall and smile.

Its around about this time most years, when after a month of weekends at music festivals that the optimism creeps in for me. The cooler evenings induce contemplation. The good vibes from festivals continue to resonate and ideas percolate. August is the plateau, the new year is weeks away but still its weeks away. These are the days to accept as reward for those night drives in freezing rain, relax, wonder, and let your mind wander.
