“And you grow past the wanting. Or, you do if you’re lucky. Not that you don’t want, that’s not what I mean, but, rather, you stop wanting what you imagine might have been.
Not because you’re wise. But because you realize your energy is finite. You time on stage is limited.”

Oh, this.
You are singing the song that plays (on repeat) in my head. Thanks for sharing.
