We sing with our heroes, 33 rounds a minute...

Here to There

Love will shorten the divide between differences and distances.

Forever, Art.

There's an interesting though that goes like this- Every single person has a different perspective of what they see and hear. So the Earth actually consists of billions of different worlds, all customary to the specific perspective of a said individual. It's amazing to think that the air we feel and the trees and sky we see actually exist in billions of different dimensions and worlds, all depending on who perceives it. This idea allows for infinite possibilities of exploration, art, and beauty.

Wiser words have never been spoken on parenting- "You give them the best, because the world is going to take care of the rest."

JOR,

whom I love and need.

JOR.

Heaven is a Time.

Where you stand will remain as unknown as a secluded island until you explore it inside your mind.

Love's Not Time's Fool

And it should not be cast aimlessly, however should not be disregarded or ignored when born out of sudden glances or brief encounters.

Orwell

Question what is real, for the illusion that is presented to us may not always be the truth that is intended for us. So for what cost do we uncover truth, in camaraderie, love? In what time will it be acceptable to speak what our minds conceive as truth, to those whom it applies? To count truth in my friendships is to understand myself, and until then I may remain without a companion.

LOHAD

There's nothing in the world that can duplicate the feeling that I get from Bruce Springsteen's music.


Grab your ticket and your suitcase
Thunder's rolling down the tracks
You don't know where you're goin'
But you know you won't be back
Darlin' if you're weary
Lay your head upon my chest
We'll take what we can carry
And we'll leave the rest

Big Wheels rolling through fields
Where sunlight streams
Meet me in a land of hope and dreams

I will provide for you
And I'll stand by your side
You'll need a good companion for
This part of the ride
Leave behind your sorrows
Let this day be the last
Tomorrow there'll be sunshine
And all this darkness past

Big wheels roll through fields
Where sunlight streams
Meet me in a land of hope and dreams

This train
Carries saints and sinners
This train
Carries losers and winners
This Train
Carries whores and gamblers
This Train
Carries lost souls
This Train
Dreams will not be thwarted
This Train
Faith will be rewarded
This Train
Hear the steel wheels singin'
This Train
Bells of freedom ringin'
This Train
Carries broken-hearted
This Train
Thieves and sweet souls departed
This Train
Carries fools and kings
This Train
All aboard

This Train
Dreams will not be thwarted
This Train
Faith will be rewarded
This Train
Hear the steel wheels singin'
This Train
Bells of freedom ringin'

This reminds me of what's important in life.

Beauty

There's a certain skill to be acquired in order to also acquire happiness. The ability to find beauty and art in the things around you is absolutely necessary for an existence of peace and ultimate happiness. Time and time again, in myself and in others around me, there are examples of unhappiness. It is far too easy to confuse contentment with happiness, because it is easy to slip into a feeling of helplessness in situations that are less than satisfactory. There are so many people who live comfortably in lives and situations from day to day that are nothing near what they would call true happiness. A lot of the time, accepting your unhappiness or discomfort with your life and being able to look past the parts that leave you less than satisfied can be a big part of disillusioning what real happiness is. It is certainley a positive trait to be able to look past negativity in your life, but it doesn't seem to be enough to simply cover up too much of the things that will ultimately lead to more loneliness and deconstruction. The biggest thing is to be able to balance looking past negativity while at the same time moving forward towards a lifestyle of both inner peace and beauty in the things around you. One of the keys is to accept change, and embrace beauty that is sometimes harder to identify than the stereotypical and materialistic ways society tempts us. Please do not ever hesitate to try and understand others, or foreign situations and art, because the greatest beauty comes from unexpected change and creations.
