it ain’t what you got,

You can, you should, and if you’re brave enough to start, you will.
Stephen King
i’ve got the wheels to ride and the wheels to run,
some say i got ramblin’ in my blood,
no pretty girl can slow me down,
i’ll travel ‘till my country home is found…
yeah, i will travel ‘til my country home is found.
you always said the highway was your home,
but we both know that ain’t true -
it’s just the only place a man can go,
when he don’t know where he’s travelin’ to.

There’s nothing like finding gold
within the rocks hard and cold,
I’m so surprised to find more -
always surprised to find more.I won’t look back anymore,
The Avett Brothers (Kick Drum Heart)
I left the people that do,
it’s not the chase that I love -
it’s me following you.(Source: confidenceisking)
And I thought about how many people have loved those songs. And how many people got through a lot of bad times because of those songs. And how many people enjoyed good times with those songs. And how much those songs really mean. I think it would be great to have written one of those songs. I bet if I wrote one of them, I would be very proud. I hope the people who wrote those songs are happy. I hope they feel it’s enough. I really do because they’ve made me happy. And I’m only one person.

Our ‘Can Do’ American spirit is being lost… Our children don’t know the difference between a flat head screwdriver and a phillips and if they did know the difference they wouldn’t know what to do with it anyway.
I, honestly, every day I walk in here I still can’t believe this is my place, because I do remember at a young age thinking, man… having some crappy Honda I couldn’t get started, didn’t get the girl, didn’t make it to the dance, broke down in the rain, thinking to myself, am I ever gonna have a whole bunch of cool bikes?

Be sure to watch to the end. Love the piano moment.
