Left Right
- I miss these quiet nights at home where I just get to sit around with my family, watch tv, and when they all trickle off to bed I get a chance to discover new music and sit in my thoughts a bit. Damien Rice has a new CD out. It has a few songs that I like and I'm sure the others could grow on me but I don't really feel like giving them a chance. I discovered a guitar player that is better than Trace Bundy in Andy McKee and I itunes purchased a CD from a band that is probably mediocre at best but touches me personally in a way that makes them amazing.
- It's funny how music does that for people. It can bridge the gap between things we don't understand and things we want to say. And as ashamed as I am to admit it I think the itunes store offers one of the most effecient ways of connecting me to new music.
- On another note, I'm so grateful to be where I am it chokes me up. God knows I love my family more than they'll ever know. I'll always be able to plug in here with them and recharge and I hope someday I can return the favor.
- And beyond that I feel like I should be struggling a lot more than I am. I feel like some good things happend to me without me even knowing. Almost as if some grand tragedy skipped right over my life leaving me in one piece and I don't deserve it. I can't explain the feeling but it's humbling. Ok, I'm up later than I told myself I would be.
- Happy Easter.
