“We’re gonna slow down for ya now … and sing a soulful number. This song, is a song that, you know … we all oughta sing at sometime; this is the love crowd right?
We all love each other don’t we? Am I right? Let me hear you say yeah! Alright.”
-Otis
If only we synthesized the message of every song we’ve heard - when we hear it - and from that moment forward, all those lessons learned, and the heartache felt by the troubadours we worship, magically became ours.
If only.
In this season of Loss and Peace and Comfort and Cold - we find ourselves Resolved.
Making grand epiphanies in the last minutes of a competition long decided to be won or lost - but in our minds Resolved nonetheless.
Tough news from home as word came that my Uncle passed Saturday night.
A hero - a legend - one of the greatest generation - but this note won’t do him justice, so I won’t try.
As the week of:
comes to an end. Our perspective is unusually short and fears and dreams battle it out, to take hold of your reality, don’t let them.
Look around, live in the here and now, and be thankful for all that you have.
