1 year ago today, Always Tomorrow was released. It’s hard to fathom that it’s already been a year because well, you know why. When I look back on this record and what it’s about - it came out at the perfect time in the world. A record about learning to let go of expectations, toxic patterns, relationships that no longer serve you, mindsets that keep you stuck.
My own life has changed so much in just a years time. The person I am today is not the person I was last year. I feel more myself now than I ever have. I think then I was still trying to TELL myself who I was. Still trying to adhere to outside expectations of who I should be. I got wrapped up in preaching a gospel I thought I knew but the truth is, I didn’t really know shit - but that’s ok. I knew what I knew, and in a years time I’ve learned so much more than I ever thought possible. I’ve learned that life is simple (ok it’s honestly very hard but when you rip it open and look at the shit that actually matters, it’s simple) - I’ve learned that dog walks, cooking weird soups, hearing the wind chimes on my front porch - the mundane, “boring” things in life I thought were just “things” - that’s the shit that makes life beautiful and special. The past year has allowed for so many of those moments because I’ve had no work to preoccupy myself with, just a life to live. I’m thankful to have had this experience. I didn’t know I needed it, but I did.
Since this album came out, I’ve realized some of the things about myself I put out there publicly were things I did and said in an attempt to make myself lovable when I was in fact, already lovable exactly how I was. And honestly - I would’ve never figured this stuff out if a global pandemic didn’t make it impossible to do my job and forced me to spend a year at home *pondering* my own existence.
Thank you so much for supporting this record even though it feels like it got cut short. One day we’ll get back out there and play these songs for you - it’ll all be different because that’s really the only constant in life, change. Luckily you always have tomorrow to try again 😊
Love you, Beth
