I'm
just glad my life makes sense to me now.
Why?
Why does a 10 year old sit and read the op-ed pages about the Watergate scandal?
Why?
Why is an eight grader the only one in his class to know who the ambassador to the United Nations is? (Andrew Young, under Carter).
The frequency and intensity with which I look at world events in this forum has been a part of my life for 43 years now. Who else can say that?
Why?
Why the frequent reflections on Nirvana going from playing in front of a few people in a dingy Seattle Hotel bar to in front of 100,000 people in less than a year? To them? They were doing the same thing they did the year previous. Why the acclaim all the sudden? Gotta mess with your head right? Why? Why do I even know this let alone sit and think about it?
Why?
Why the constant thinking about Springsteen going from working class hero to world wide mega star and the ensuing mental gymnastics it took to get through it? Why? Why is that even registering in my mind?
Now I know.
So I won't go insane.
I already did.
I did it prior to.
I crawled out the other side.
So I won't have to worry about doing it during.
I'm Healthier.
Wiser.
Smarter.
And ready to go.
I've been preped for this my whole life.
