Dear Daniel:

Vulfpeck’s Wait for the Moment:

“Mom said, ‘Wait for the moment!’ – Gone home, went to bed – While the other kids, they’re still outside.

I don’t feel time when I sleep – So I snuggle up with my sheet – And wait for a brighter day.”-

In your post today, you wrote: “people in my prom.. they have a happier life compared to mine”- the people in your prom, they are the “other kids” in the song, playing outside while you are in bed, at home. They are having fun; you are not.

“I feel like I missed a lot”- like that kid in the song, missing the adventures that the other kids are experiencing outside.

This is your early life, childhood experience: missing out on life, not being where life is happening; other people/ your peers living the life that you are deprived of.

“I have a gloomy, sad or angry face when I am alone in the street”- if you want to tell me more about your earliest memories of being deprived of living, seeing your peers truly living while you did not, please do share. I suggest this because the way to stop reliving the same emotional experience of childhood, is to locate, process and place this old emotional experience in the past, and in so doing, freeing your present and future time from the past.
