these are not resolutions.

and these are not shoulds.

but these are the things i will do more of in my life, i will make a place for these things, carve out a space for them and not worry about all of the other things i always thought i should be doing.

1) stay up late. (yes, you read that right.)

2) play music.

3) make music. but i’m not going to pressure myself to write songs anymore. i just want to make music, whatever that means.

4) listen to more music. more more more more more.

5) walk. walk through my beautiful, dirty, and messy city. unless it’s after 2 a.m. and before 7 a.m. (i’ve thought this through.)

6) make pictures. not just make pictures, but take picture making to the next level. find the pictures i want to make, and figure out how to make them. stop taking the picture in my head, where it will fade and leave. make the picture.

7) write.
