When we were young we would say it and when we got older we still think it.
‘Just a few more minutes’…
Of playing at the park
Of looking at the Christmas lights
Of sitting on the beach
Of riding the rides at Disney World
Of swimming in the pool
Of catching up with a good friend
Of seeing your favorite artist live
That longing, yearning, joy mixed with heartache…that is a gift. It’s a gift to evoke that feeling in someone…and to experience that feeling because of someone or something.
As artists, that’s the business we’re in. The feeling of just a few more minutes.
