X(yz+1): Life has thrown its share of challenges my way, particularly when it comes to health. I’ve always believed in fighting back, staying active, and refusing to let circumstances dictate how I live. But somewhere along the way, I began to realize that there’s a difference between challenging yourself and always demanding more of yourself. ~Wayne
LESS IS MORE:
Yeah, I spent a lifetime chasing
Never stopped to ask what for.
I woke up early, I stayed up late,
Always had another load of weight.
Another hill, another race,
Another finish line to chase.
I filled my days, I emptied my soul,
Kept on running toward another goal.
Had everything I thought I’d find,
But left the best of it behind.
Then one day it hit me like a lightning strike,
I wasn’t running out of time
I was running past my life!
I don’t need another mountain,
I don’t need another score,
I spent my life collecting more,
Till I learned that less is more!
Less of the noise, more of the song,
Less of the race I’ve been running so long.
More of the things worth living for
Sometimes less is so much more!
I bought the things they said I’d need,
Fed every want and called it greed.
Worked for a life I couldn’t enjoy,
Traded my peace for another new toy.
I missed the sunsets, I missed the rain,
Missed the little things I couldn’t explain.
The people I loved were waiting there,
While I was chasing the empty air.
Then one day it hit me like a lightning strike,
I wasn’t running out of time
I was running past my life!
I don’t need another mountain,
I don’t need another score,
I spent my life collecting more,
Till I learned that less is more!
Less of the noise, more of the song,
Less of the race I’ve been running so long.
More of the things worth living for
Sometimes less is so much more!
I don’t need to win every battle,
Don’t need to answer every call.
Don’t need to prove myself to strangers,
Don’t need to have it all.
Give me mornings without hurry,
Give me evenings without war.
Give me time with those who love me
That’s what I’ve been fighting for!
I don’t need another mountain,
I don’t need another score,
I spent my life collecting more,
Till I learned that less is more!
Less of the worry, more of the love,
Less looking down, more looking up.
More of the things worth living for
Sometimes less is so much more!
I wasn’t running out of time,
I was running past my life.
Now I’ve got nothing left to prove
And so much more to live for.
Less… is more.

rau·ci·ty (n.) Rough, harsh music with free screeching vocals, ear-numbing guitars,
thunderous drums. Boisterous, disorderly abandon triggered by sound. The
uncontrollable urge to move, shout, and feel music in your bones.
Music that’s not too loud, not too soft, just loud enough.
Opinions and screeches that deserve to be heard.
Relax, we won’t tell mom you’re here.
