Change - for the good.

I wish I could tell you that everything is going to be alright,
I wish I could change the world,
I wish I could wipe your tears,

But that changes nothing.
Life is fragile, and imperfect,
And a single fragment of a second
Can make the world stop spinning.

I wish I could close my eyes,
and comfort you,
I wish so many things,
But then I stop, and a touch of calamity fills my heart.

You are you.
I need no change,
I need no wishes,
I need nothing.

You are strong as you are wise,
What many may not see in you,
I have felt in you.

Many a time,
Psychology is nothing more,
Than an ongoing joke,
'As if emotions were a science.'

But in truth, I tell you,
Emotions are the hardest science.
The most difficult of them all,
The realm of the unknown.

And your warm heart,
Takes it smoothly.
As mine shatters,
You tell me what matters.

Everything is not going to be ok.
Life is going to change.
But you can close your eyes,
And make it right.

Make it right for the young ones,
Make it right in your heart,
Let it all out,
For once, set them free.

Change their life.

Finance

A small quote I came up with as I was going to bed last night, felt it was worth sharing: Don't buy depreciating assets unless they are a necessity and if so, buy them depreciated.

"I'm not the whisky you want, I'm the water you need." - Rupi Kaur

The light came through, Your peaceful smile, in truth. The surreal was still at bay But I did not know what my words would convey. I heard the silence pedal, I spent the days winning medals Hoping to protect my heart By covering it with metal. I'm trying to explain these walls, The shields and simple fears, I hope they don't reflect you away, But I do not know if you can stay. I buried myself deep within Behind this thick armor My wounds had frozen As I lay there, I burned the roses. A little heat was a sweet reminder Of my burnt past The loving pleasure and pain I ran from what would always remain. So when I glanced at you in disbelief, It was hard to mutter past my walls, But you saw past them with your own, By admitting what I had never known. The vulnerabilities we touch Let us know we are loved They acknowledge our shame And let us play our game With a silly smile, I finally got the courage I finally had the nerve, To yell past my wall...

Food: Volume 2

The Food Guide: Volume 2 August marked the start of my 10th year in Atlanta, Georgia. My first 3-4 years were arguably a waste in the context of visiting places (still remember being blown away when I first ventured into Decatur), but I wanted to revisit my Food Guide now that I have frequented many locations around Atlanta and found the pockets that I really love. Before I had structured the guide from cheap to expensive, but this time I will break it down by neighborhoods, since I think that better represents Atlanta. Disclaimer, I also love beer so some of these may be bias to the beer world. I explicitly won't be mentioning breweries or bars because this would just get insanely long, but hit up Hop City, and check out every brewery in town. I particularly have been loving the atmosphere at Atlanta Brewing Co. so go check them out! Updated lightly in January 2021 to add PERC Coffee, otherwise intact so forgive if anything is stale, and another update 5/10 I removed Le Fat ...
