I stumbled over theses sentences<\/a> again today. They’ve always made a big impression on me, and apparently also on a lot of other people<\/a>. The words might seem a bit trite, but knowing and liking the band<\/a> they hit you as absolutely right.<\/p>\n

Sometimes you feel real old, older than you are. Check the aches and pains, the hairline, the demands of life. Responsibilities, responsibilities. Worse things have happened to all of us; the circus wasn\u2019t as good as you thought it would be, the movie stunk, etc., etc\u2026.<\/p>\n

Punching the clock, punching the wall, hating your boss. You can\u2019t go if you don\u2019t know, and you can\u2019t know if you don\u2019t go. And everybody in the world has their own song in their heads. The best songs ever. Problem is figuring a way to get them out and present them to others.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ve got to know where the brakes are. Enjoy life at a realistic pace. You crazy youngsters, what with your nightlife and everything. And it\u2019s important to trust other people while putting stock in yourself as well. Reevaluating your priorities, checking yourself daily.<\/p>\n

Not everybody is a victim of circumstance; conversely, nobody should feel like a martyr all the time. Problem? It\u2019s hard enough to communicate these days; some of us don\u2019t even get the chance. Some others don\u2019t know they have a chance.<\/p>\n

When you travel frequently, you find a lot of images. And sometimes, you have to try and make the best of a bad situation: more often than not, we grin and bear it. Other times, you learn to enjoy some small facet of your predicament. Nothing too elaborate, just an attempt to adjust priorities. Revolution starts at home, preferably in the bathroom mirror.<\/p>\n

Example? Winter always comes too soon. This year was the worst I can remember, except when I was five years old. Pushed open the front door, got lost in the snow.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But who actually wrote the words? My best bet is Bob Mould, but it could just as easily have been Grant Hart. Or maybe even Greg Norton?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
