Tonight, I'm thrilled to be starting in Brighton, with a foot firmly planted where roads don't usually go. Looking up, I see the only sun in the sky, while thinking of you and contemplating everything I ever learned. In all honesty, I've been falling for you since Monday of last week. Please don't think me some kind of loser as I ruminate on the short time we have here on this earth, avoiding the grief of it, and drifting in and about my senses. I'm touching down in Essex, stumbling yet hopeful, until I'm firmly standing on a stepping stone. Through a television, I see a very precarious sense of self and dive right into the demons I've been avoiding, eventually feeling alright, and declaring a celebratory funeral for the past. I happily sign a social contract, that I want to believe, however strange it may be.

With gusto we address sobriety right off the bat, and the pressure of social media perfection. At the best of times, it allows us to show our many faces but can frustrate you to seek a simple life. To be lost in reverie can be bliss while gazing at the western skies. Families separated, for what ever reason, can feel like you carry the world on your shoulders, heavy, in need of a lifeboat. In Venice, Italy, apparently two mimes looking the same is better than one. The youth in Manchester, already understand that things just come and go. California has traitors in the day and idols nova gazing just to feel the same. Never mind that now, nothing's shocking anymore, is it? Keep your head right, and a group with love, will never say to you...this is the end.

Big lies beget suspicious minds, though in the episode, that's a good thing! As Socrates would say "Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives." and that's true twice here. My favorite color is blue, a blue moon, the blue water of a bay, I like it all. Sitting at a café at night isn't a bad way to spend the evening, though once headlights flash upon you and pass, it can make you a bit nervous, especially if you're a bit wasted and seeing colour on everyone's tongue. For today though, let's play at the waterline, tossing anxiety and grief away. Slip off those boots, dip your toes, and fixate on an affirmation to dispel any derealization you might be experiencing. Be the "Comeback Kid" after that long range hustle, a pioneer to and for yourself, then flip that hourglass for another go at tomorrow.

This week I'm going a hundred at the speed of sloth, is that fast? Mourning the loss of life from an unnecessary fire, finding a lost summer with some cherry blossom kids. I'm seeing young robins as Spring here in California has pretty much sprung, and it's perfect. Love means to be deeply committed and connected, in a place, that might be pretty, and might just be white noise. On the boardwalk, hitting like a girl gains respect, developing automatic goodvibes without the wait. I don't ever plan on growing up, I don't see the point, and it won't make me lost in this world or runaway to Manchester, for that matter. Do mermen and mermaids have an achilles heal? Do they even have heals??? That worth finding out.

Never say Never when I'm right there beside you pushing new music upon you. I'll show you what ever you want regardless of your greatest enemy, you yourself, yup it's you! Take the highline, stay sane, while I follow you down that calico stream to Belgium. Gibberish from an exceptional pizza I understand, it's with the crunch of orange days I stray a bit. Locking up rain I pray for a straight away lane on a Sunday to shutdown these weekend anxiety attacks. I see myself in the reflection of blood when I've charmingly cut myself deep enough to lie about it to those I habitat with. Fine, fine, fine, I'll just choke the pony I rode in on....happy listening!!!!

Been feeling mentally fuzzy, like I'm in a red cloud lately, needing a polar state to cover me and help me feeling comforted. This week, I'm won't be paying off any debts, but I will realize that I truly need to sit back and breathe, more oxygen in my lungs from all my hause plants is what I need. Rinsing off 2020, and its very flawed design fraught with bad news, I search for Darwin's Eden. Truth be told, I'm terrified of anyone's love, suddenly realizing I've been hurt/destroyed too many times before. Life is not the funhouse its played up to be, though it does have its mindblowingly spectacular moments. Keep swimming against the forces that try to drown you, and you'll be uplifted and remembered by a world who loves you.

This week, I'm feeling quite festive in the new music area, heaping hopes to share it with someone like you. Betcha didn't know a deja vu is the same thing happening at the same time in an alternative universe. It'll feel a little ghost-like but fear not, in Glasgow, there is a symphony playing your theme song. If you retain a open mind, and view things as they come, you'll recognize things are different for everyone. Don't let that wind you up, creating darkwaters, to the point of a police car in that future of yours. Fade off into the shadows so you have time to solve the puzzle we call life. Do your best to hear the call of your heart, keep it to yourself, not today is the day to expound on that new found depth, wait for the right time to shout your new found joy...like...right...about....NOW!

Those incredibly eager for what's new, jump the gun, a head start, as they say "the early bird gets the worm". You have that here, a buzz cut worthy of sporting down the runway and to your friends. Strides in the sun makes a goodbye almost less heartbreaking. Put all that aside, and have a balls to the wall fired up night out in Edinburgh...Scotland is where it's at! Confess your silliness near a river in the NE of England. Then sit down on the banks, and ponder a stationary life, it might lead you to the past. Alexandros of Antioch created a beauty that is a true freeze frame of love that he might have finish at 5AM. Messed up is what we'll remember about 2020, both in Australia and in Los Angeles. The sun tends to shed light on the weird wins we can achieve with our mental health if we can get away from the void it tends to suck us into. When we get there though, a personal Valhalla awards all that hard work.

Any casual vice close to home deserves an open letter to Glasgow, searching for that utopia to delight in. Getting back together in the far west, we'll ride white sands, discover cool ghouls, and overshare to the point of addiction. I'm not sure the power of love can help the modern yuppies but it's worth a shot. On doctor's order, we'll revel in the big disaster a good team can become. Always be a good citizen and try not to kill anyone. Back in Glasgow, I discover the importance our relationships are, and not to waste them. Finally, when you see blood in the water, scream, scream as loud as you can.

Jumping head first into the rabbit hole I discovered in Glasgow, hoping someone would save me, I came out the other end in the 80s, my favorite decade. I then waited in line with Jenny, who didn't tell me that choosing sides would get us lost in Ireland. Close to home, I find a five star diary full of juicy tidbits from the Subshine dimension. It's a new year, so I'm striving to be better, with humility, but that won't stop me from getting naked and sparking new ideas, that will eventually be out of my hands at some point. My parents told the truth when they said some of our bloodline originates in Germany.
