It's a brand new day

Just a piece of my mind

You wake up one day

And you realize that maybe you're not going to make it

Maybe you're not going to get out of this town

Maybe you're not going to see different music,art,culture

Maybe you're meant to stay here

And then you settle down

You settle down for "nothing"

Because at some point you were happy with "nothing"

At some point you wanted "nothing"

At some point you wanted to be "nothing"

And then it hits you

You're alive

You  have fire,dreams,desires

You have a future

And you won't settle for "nothing".

It can be dreams, goals, scenery, or love... better to have tried than to wonder 'what if' for the rest of your days...
"Adventure comes to those that choose to be daring." Realistic goals like a fresh start in a new place with a new chance at happiness, possibly a new love, are reachable, and only start with that first reach.

Great write, Mandy, and don't settle for less than the fire in your heart to be returned.
