Starting today



This song is for Atelier Tinika. My own business, side hustle, passion, drive, and major purpose of my life (outside of my family and friends of course).


Creating is part of my personality, since I was little it has been my favorite thing to do. Maybe it's my mission. The world has so much awfulness, misery, and hatred. I hope that I can bring a little beauty into the world and inspire others or make people happy with my art.


But going down this road hasn't made it easy for me either. The time and energy that is always invested in addition to another job, two small children, and home renovations have often made me doubt myself. I have often thought about quitting Atelier Tinika to give myself more peace.


But it keeps calling me back. It has already become a part of myself that I can't just let go. It always makes me happy and also gives me energy. That's why I do it and it's my drive to continue.

So this text reminded me of Atelier Tinika. My own business, side hustle, passion, drive, and major purpose of my life.


Starting today

I'm not gonna waste another moment

Even if I had had the chance before

I would have blown it

But you took me by surprise

And you caught me just in time

Everyday

You give me reason not to walk away

I'll stop believing that the world's gone crazy

And if it is you'll save me

Starting Today

I'm not gonna worry about tomorrow

I'll wash away

All this fear that's left me feeling hollow

'Cause you make me want to try

And you caught me just in time

Everyday

You give me reason not to walk away

I've stopped believing

I should run like crazy

'Cause if I did you'd chase me anyway

I should of told you so many times

But I shied away

Somehow you always seem to

Be there making it easy

And you give me reason to stay everyday

Ooh everyday, everyday

I've stopped believing

I should run like crazy

'Cause if I did you'd chase me anyway

You give me reason not to walk away

I've stopped believing

That the world's gone crazy

And if it is you'll save me

Starting today

I'm not gonna waste another moment
