Not so quick to the trigger
Raw emotion, in my experiences, usually lead me to a sharp tongue and a few regrets. While tact should be a virtue, sometimes all of us are a little too quick to mouth off and later are filled with intense remorse. Notice that the last post’s lyrics were dated December 2007. I keep a notebook filled with these musings, written in the heat of the moment, and posted on those random pages very shortly after. It is in the explanations, however, where patience leads way to tact, and while the words are still biting and true, the event is far enough behind to write an honest reflection.
I know that for a period of time there will be a dichotomy of the past and present, and it is in the translation of the events that I hope to have a clearer understanding of how the past has shaped the present. Rather than spend hours or days regurgitating the events of ten years passed, I have chosen to reveal it in pieces that are pertinent to my present day activities. I suppose that you’ve noticed that, though.
