The racing thoughts coupled with declining memory can take the rerun of keeping cool in what previously might have been a come out my ass moment, keeping it as a thumbs up for staying true to inner self.
The presence of considering yourself as an over-achiever when just a few saw me as an under-achiever confirms the validity of true self. The picture of Skynyrd in a practice shack where the joy of collaboration extinguishes how humid it was is the depiction of focus on the mission. That plus staying true to inner self is inspiring heightened expectation.
Try combine the good from what is with no regrets and you get transitions that work well. The eyesore aspects from the vapors suddenly become character. Chance is just another name for non-projection.
