Under The Bridge

7 08 2008

Being ADHD in a town that can be so NOT ADHD friendly is rough on the knees. This could be an ADD theme song. I dedicate this to my therapist and coach, KK.

UNDER THE BRIDGE – Red Hot Chili Peppers

Sometimes I feel
Like I dont have a partner
Sometimes I feel
Like my only friend
Is the city I live in
The city of angel
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I drive on her streets
cause shes my companion
I walk through her hills
cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds
And she kisses me windy
I never worry
Now that is a lie

I dont ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way

Its hard to believe
That theres nobody out there
Its hard to believe
That Im all alone
At least I have her love
The city she loves me
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I dont ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way

Under the bridge downtown
Is where I drew some blood
Under the bridge downtown
I could not get enough
Under the bridge downtown
Forgot about my love
Under the bridge downtown
I gave my life away





Swing Thoughts in the Rough

12 04 2007

Today was one of those thinking days…as I was driving around all over Hell-A – like being in some of the worst rough on the golf course – my mind unsettled, pondering, contemplating, second guessing, hoping, wondering, waiting, trying…the 101 north, past downtown, then to Paramount Studios, then up Vine and back on the 101 and then over the hill to Ventura Blvd, then through Toluca Lake, and then to Burbank, then back home for groceries, which made me think of Lafayette for some reason, missing new friends. A melancholy feeling creeping up all day leading to a birthday card made for me that I read, and I just, I just don’t know. I just draw a deep breath and take it in, unsure what anything really means.

A day of increasing melancholy turned into a momentous moment of clarity. Those of you who read my ramblings, I wish you the same moments of clarity.

My swing thoughts:

  • honor yourself
  • just show up
  • no expectations
