In the fall of 2010, I was walking home from the record store. The air was crisp, the leaves just starting to turn. I had just spent the evening at a soulful show, barefoot, feeling the cool, wet asphalt under my feet.

The Raindrops

The rain started to fall softly, like the beginning of a melody. Just a drizzle, but the city was quiet, the air cold. I paused, watching the raindrops dance on the pavement, each one a tiny memory.

The Melody

I picked up the pace, my steps quicker, but not too fast. The rain became a steady rhythm, a beat I could move to. I closed my eyes, letting the rain wash over me. I opened my mouth, humming a melody that felt like it had always been there, waiting for the right moment to emerge.

The Memory

As I walked, I remembered that day in 2010. I was 22, just starting to find my voice. I had a mixtape about to drop, and the world felt like it was just beginning to listen. The rain was like the world, a constant, and the music was my response.

I reached into my pocket, pulling out my phone. I opened “Steps That Don’t Hurry,” the song I had just heard at the show. I pressed play, and the music filled the space around me. It was a soulful, reflective piece, the kind that tells a story without saying a word.
