“Speaking of stage freight. I was terrified! It was in NOLA at an all ages show. I was wearing Jeans, a Van Halen t-shirt, and a bandana on my neck. Once I gripped that microphone stand, I did not let go! I plugged my microphone into a guitar FX pedal. Then at the end of the a Black Sabbath song we were covering, I hit the guitar pedal. It was horrific!” EndsShowsAgeSongBlackStageLetting GoGuitarShirtsNecksTerrifiedJeansT ShirtVansCoveringSabbathMicrophonesHorrificPedalsVan HalenBlack Sabbath Author:Phil Anselmo
“With everything you're letting go, I'm sure it's going to have a different value to you. And every time you let go you're going to be a different age or there's going to be different circumstances. So I think the best way to do it is to simply wish the best for that thing.” ThinkingWayDifferentAgeValuesWishCircumstancesLetting GoBest WayDifferent AgesDifferent Values Author:Jason Mraz
“I worry myself sick about emotional pain, and then I either get on the mat, or get on my bike, and just stop thinking.

“I caution you as I was never cautioned: You will never let go, you will never be satiated. You will be damaged and scarred, you will continue to hunger. Your body will age, you will continue to need. You will want the earth, then more of the earth-- Sublime, indifferent, it is present, it will not respond. It is encompassing, it will not minister. Meaning, it will feed you, it will ravish you. It will not keep you alive.” WantNeedsBodyAgeEarthAliveLetting GoHungerYour BodyMinistersIndifferentSublimeCautionNeed YouNever Let Go Author:Louise Glück
“There were so many people, so much to navigate, and as the distance fluctuated between us his hand kept slipping, down my arm to my wrist. And maybe he was going to let go as people pressed in on all sides, but all I could think was how when nothing made sense and hadn't for ages, you just have to grab onto anything you feel sure of. So as I felt his fingers loosening around my wrist, I just wrapped my own around them, right, and held on” PeopleThinkingFeelsMadeHandsAgeFeltSidesMy OwnArmsLetting GoDistanceFingersWristsNavigateSlipping Author:Sarah Dessen

It's impressive, but I'd rather watch him move. There's something wonderful about the way he lets go, becoming all energy and excitement as he outlines what's coming next. Maybe it's geeky for a girl my age to admit she still loves her brother. I don't care. I love him, and one day I'll bury him, and until then, I'm going to be grateful that I'm allowed to watch him talk.” WayStillsDoneCareAgeMovingGirlNextEnergyWatchesAudienceWonderfulBrotherBecomingOne DayLetting GoDiscoveryGratefulDon't CareExcitedMysteriousI Don't CareExcitementPocketsBe GratefulImpressiveOutlinesI Love HimFrenzy Author:Mira Grant
