The best you can is good enough

This photo is an answer to your question, yes I am proud of my Trax ticket. I figured out why I have never taken Trax and it's because I was saving my first ride for something great. Kinda romantical and silly but honest. Trax did not disappoint me like a blind date gone bad- it met my expectations which is a strong finish to an ever growing anticipation. Jonathan, Dave, Katie, Jack and I rode Trax from SLC to Sandy to hit up the Real game. While the game was intense and not entertaining by the comfortable sense of the word, I had a great time with my friends and that is what I took comfort in. Afterwards, we hit up the Ritz for bowling where I spanked everyone- 128. Then the second game took a turn for the worst and I ended up with the lowest score- 83. That score was not good for my average and I am afraid to see Jonathan's chart for me (remember the picture from last week?).

I write about my happiness every week and sometimes everyday. The conclusion I have drawn is that I cannot convince anyone else of my happiness- I just have to live it. I am just glad I get to share it with you.

"Lights"
by Ellie Goulding

I had a way then losing it all on my own
I had a heart then but the queen has been overthrown
And I'm not sleeping now the dark is too hard to beat
And I'm not keeping now the strength I need to push me

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine It when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine It when I'm alone

Home

Noises, I play within my head
Touch my own skin and hope that I'm still breathing
And I think back to when my brother and my sister slept
In an unlocked place the only time I feel safe

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone

Home

Yeah, hee

Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone

Home, home
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights

Home, home
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights

Home, home
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights

Home, home
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights


Ps Trax expanded my perceptions of the city and the people who live here. I will never get over how beautiful it is here.
