You actually suffered. You overcame. You gave the only gift you could to the world. Fuck ronald reagan. Just another corporate puppet. All he ever gave the world was death, under the mere pretense of charity. But you gave a moment of joy to salesman driving in their cars to the next futile destination, to my father, who remembers his mother, cleaning house, to the spinning of your records, to people in uncertain times. To a travelling audio engineer ensconced in soulless industry, glimpsing for the first time the secret elixir of life, art, the alchemy of the spirit, the transcendance of pain in notes that pour, down like the soothing rain after many a drought beleagured in pain. we are alive, and we thrive, because of your contribution to the eternal spirit flow. gratitude. love. a tear, and a smile.
well, i feel ya on the loss of ray charles.....but being a child of the 80's myself, this is the first president i've been a little taken a back by all of this.....meaning ronald reagan and all....
"And when you speak to me.. my heart is beating so...oh oh... though they say that you know me well... It's not hard to tell.. that you don't know me.." Sigh.... ~well... he lived a life eh?~
Hugs from my heart. You are a beautiful shinning soul; sharing light and love; even if dark images call to speak the language of meeting, you would embrace in the abyss of transcendence and unite by making visible what needs to pass.
