My newest curiosity, the band called Hammock. Ambient and ethereal. They resonate my current state of being, right to the very core.

Random thoughts that move me forward and inspire me. Could be text, video or imagery.
We all change…
…We all change when you think about it. We are all different people all through our lives and that’s okay, that’s good, you gotta keep moving so long as you remember all the people that you used to be. I will not forget one line of this, not one day, I swear…
– The Eleventh Doctor, Doctor Who
Desire
We are Desire in motion.
“In the language of Kabbalah, desire is referred to as a Vessel. A Vessel is like an empty cup that seeks to be filled. Unlike an empty cup, however, the Vessel of our desires is not anything physical.”
Excerpt From: Yehuda Berg. “The Power of Kabbalah.” iBooks. https://itun.es/us/e-X9y.l
Maturity
Maturity is the ability to live with the unresolved problems.

The light that …
The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long – and you have burned so very, very brightly…

Stay
This song is resonating with me at the moment. I think about Matt a lot when I hear this song. Oh Matt…
The Secret
Maybe that’s just what a relationship is. Constantly doing things you have absolutely no desire to do.

Back to the Garden
I think a soulmate is a person who makes you be the most you you can possibly be. Maybe your soulmate is the person who forces your soul to grow the most. Not all growth feels good.

Dancing On My Own
This is an oldie, but goodie. (Yes 2009 is already old.)
After reading several interpretations of this song online, my own summary is as follows:
A single man who happens to be gay is in love with his straight male friend. This gay male happens to be totally in love with the straight friend, but has kept it to himself for a very long time. It’s tearing him apart. One night of dancing finally highlights the gravity of his situation: unrequited love – a love that can never be. He watches him from the corner of the club or dance floor. The straight friend is totally occupied by his new girlfriend. Listen carefully to the chorus: “…I’m not the guy you’re taking home…” His agony is so descriptive as he watches him flirt with her. Heart-wrenching words surrounded by the techno drum beats, it’s so subtly covered. One’s immediate interpretation would be about a woman experiencing this – watching her straight friend with his new girlfriend. But the catch is the line in the chorus. What makes it even more incredible is that Robyn is singing it from the perspective of a gay man.
The Will
Well, we’re all wounded. We carry our wounds around with us through life, and eventually they kill us. Things happen that leave a mark in space, in time. In us.
