i look into the reflection of those eyes, looking back at me

its days like these that i don't take for granted. i think that all too often we take things for granted, and i feel like today, the blessings i have really shone through. playing bass is one of the best things i can do, entertaining people, and in this case, bringing some of my good friends' hard work to life is so rewarding. i started reading blue like jazz today, finally.. and i frankly don't think i had the right mind to really saturate it before now. everything happens for a reason, and it happens at exactly at the time it needs to happen. on the way to rudy's house, we talked about waiting and how the rewards of it are far better than the pain of the waiting itself, and that hit me hard. this uncertainty i have now is great, the lack of concrete knowledge and understanding is something new, and everyday, it becomes clearer and more blurred at the same time.
