Come On In, Life

Bought a welcome mat that said WELCOME—

then welcomed nobody at all.

Life keeps knocking.

He keeps asking it to come back when he’s ready.

Come On In, Life is about finally opening the door: to laughter, attraction, uncertainty, and the beautiful inconvenience of letting something matter.

There’s a good shirt waiting on the shelf. Good plates saved for someday. A carefully guarded heart discovering that closeness doesn’t require becoming a completely different person first.

“Just this one. Still breathing. Still nervous.”

With humor, vulnerability, and a little flirtation, the song follows that first invitation into something bigger: room for the life we keep postponing.

“I’ll try to run toward something

instead of only running from.”

For anybody who has been waiting to feel ready.

There’s room here at the table.
