Something to hold on to...

So...
I can't get over the Emery EP...

"You took my heart out of me..."

There's something about good hard music that doesn't apologize that gets to me...

Something about all the words that are so piercing and in a way embody all of the frustration that I've felt over the last year or so...

While broken hearts prevail...

I guess that's the message. I didn't write the music but the best I understand it, as long as we're on this earth Broken Hearts Will Prevail. Kinda depressing...

But still, it resonates in my bones. So let's stop breaking hearts and hurting people if we can. Let's redeem and draw people into the boats so they don't drown.

So I finally picked up Jack Johnson's album On and On and I have basically fallen in love with a song. No it's not ridiculous, but Holes to Heaven has just captured the moment I'm in...

I'm here in the real world fighting to get what I need to done, through whatever means, in a rough environment (albeit, not as rough as India) but just trying to get things done. Being a kid was where it was at though, less stress, just kinda floating on, not really caring what was important or going on. Just to be one of the kids playing cricket with bare feet.

"and there were so many fewer questions when
star were still just the holes to heaven... mmhmmmmm..."

Oh, innocence...
