Make me sanguine, help me genuinely kill the doubt that strangles my self-worth
One of my favorite bands is The Avett Brothers. They have an ability to capture energy and emotion in their music like noone else I’ve ever heard. My life has been a range of emotions as of late. If there was a soundtrack, it would be the music of the Avetts. I’m trying to be sanguine, as their song suggests, but at times it is difficult. Light-heartedness has been one of my trademarks for most of my life. When people describe me they say I take things as they come, live in the moment, I’m easy-going, unencumbered with the worries of life. They’re wrong. I’m trying to be that again. I’m trying.
