Chasing Cars

The whole newest CD is great...Eyes Open
Sometimes, when one person is missing, the whole world seems depopulated.
Within you I lose myself...Without you I find myself...Wanting to be lost again.
"If I had a single flower for every time I think about you, I could walk forever in my garden." --attributed to Claudia Ghandi
"The reason it hurts so much to separate is because our souls are connected." --Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook
How is one to live a moral and compassionate existence when one is fully aware of the blood, the horror inherent in life, when one finds darkness not only in one's culture but within oneself? If there is a stage at which an individual life becomes truly adult, it must be when one grasps the irony in its unfolding and accepts responsibility for a life lived in the midst of such paradox. One must live in the middle of contradiction, because if all contradiction were eliminated at once life would collapse. There are simply no answers to some of the great pressing questions. You continue to live them out, making your life a worthy expression of leaning into the light.
