barefoot walks



I feel like songwriting is more of a trial and error sort of thing
You make a multiple amount of "songs" over a period of time and you test each one.
maybe you'll play one for your mom or your grandma or your friend.
or maybe you'll even play one at a coffeehouse.
but there are going to be some not-so-good ones and there are going to be some awesome ones.

that's what it seems like to me anyways.
don't count on it though, i'm new at this.
Actually I'm way new at this.
Actually, I've only ever wrote one song. Ever.
And it wasn't that good.

But lately, it seems like I've had a song just kinda waitin to be let out.
And I think it will take some time and discipline, and it might even be painful. 
Kind of like a newborn baby,
it needs to come out of the womb but at the same time it's like "ooo, but I like it in here."
And it's gonna be painful, and time consuming but in the end it is well worth it.
And you also end up having a beautiful gift from above.

Songwriting and giving birth.
Can you even compare those two?
weird.

here's a weird video that I found, it's kinda long and weird at first but at the end it makes sense.
just watch it, no questions asked.
just do it.
