Grief and Gratitude, Grok - Shifting

[grok]

Threading self between forms of system collapse

Thanks Caligirl. I think as is often repeated here, the WAS often has so much in their heads/hearts/emotions, there is little room for everything else. Pets, children, spouses, ... Bits of MLC and the OM/OW crowding out everything. It's enough to make one jaded. We, the LBS, walk the knife edge of Nihility on one side and hardened toughness of Jade on the other.

Listening to morning jams on the way to work yesterday. Just re-released/mixed electronica to match the theme. One of the best/most famous artists in the genre. No lyrics...D19 gave it an emoji heart. 12 minutes.

Re_Jaded - by Deadmau5

"All the way back in 2007, there was a very limited release of deadmau5’s ‘Jaded’, now, 17 years later – the track is properly available to the masses via a new four-track EP. Includes is the original record, alongside a new 12 minute edit from deadmau5 and another Ambient Mix to go alongside. Finaling the package is a remix from rising producer Volaris."

Love, Marriage, More than a feeling

For good AND ill, drive time is often contemplation time. Love, Life, Loss, where to go now?

To me, love and marriage is so much more than a feeling.

I see XW now and do a double take. At first it looks like my W, then does not... It's as if the W I had is seen through a smoky and distorted funhouse mirror.

Her face fades...I still recall...the dream of a girl I used to know...as she slipped/walked away

More Than a Feeling - Boston

I looked out this morning and the sun was gone
Turned on some music to start my day
I lost myself in a familiar song
I closed my eyes and I slipped away
...
So many people have come and gone
Their faces fade as the years go by
Yet I still recall as I wander on
As clear as the sun in the summer sky
...
When I'm tired and thinking cold
I hide in my music, forget the day
And dream of a girl I used to know
I closed my eyes and she slipped away

She slipped away

It's more than a feeling (More than a feeling)
When I hear that old song they used to play (More than a feeling)
I begin dreaming (More than a feeling)
'Til I see Marianne walk away
