Lyrics of Advice to Myself-Jenelle
Make a reservation without changing it twice.
Jump at a great opportunity and
trust that it’s the right one,
at least for now.
Stay up late and lose
sleep,
because it’s worth it.
Get up in the middle of the night to
write down your dreams
just because you want to.
Wear the same clothes
for three days in a row.
or maybe four.
Take a shower only if you
really want one.
Dip in the screaming-cold spring-fed stream instead.
Get up early to watch the sunrise, the birds rise, the spirits rise
Stay up
to follow your heart rise fully into the day!
Follow your passion, follow
your daydreams
Take note of what you tell yourself, “This isn’t it.”,
then follow it anyway because you can’t stop thinking about it.
Sit still.
Sit still. Breathe.
Feel your spine grow longer,
and your head sit
higher.
Open to the unknown.
Practice Not Knowing
Then do it
again.
And again.
And again.
