Since returning from my trip I have been working some long days doing some catch up. On a late drive home, weary from jet lag, this song comes on in the car, I repeat the song all the way home. Music can be just so time travelingly therapeutic. This one in particular caused me to think about past loves, lost loves and my current love. No matter the sentimental recollection of good or bad, they are a part of me. They brought me to where I am, they helped shape who I am. I am reminded, just like this song, every time you love or try, you create memories. Things in the past that you can point to and say, what an interesting time, where I still had so much to learn.
Addendum - although I write many things, I don't immediately put them up as in the case above, it is over a week old. It is now Christmas Eve. After spending just a wonderful couple of hours sitting, relaxing and talking with my wife, as my kids buzzed around happily with some pre-Christmas excitement, I am humbled. I probably deserve far less than I have ever received. All of life's journeys culminate to this. For that I am grateful. For all who have journeyed with me, I am thankful and think of you. Have a merry Christmas.

"Everytime"
I haven't see you since you left LA,
I want to say I'm sorry now.
You know I wanted things to be okay,
You know how hard it is.
Everytime you love,
Everytime you try,
You think another memory
I don't know where it goes or what we're going to do,
but know that you're a part of me.
I've been crazy, I've been gone
and now it's all coming back to me.
Was I being just a kid?
and didn't know what was good for me?
Cause, Everytime you love,
Everytime you try,
You think another memory.
I don't know where it goes or what we're going to do
but know that you're a part of me.
How long can we go throwing away everything we are
to everyone, to everyone?
Will you walk with me? and talk with me?
Back where we used to be?
So much older now and smarter,
but the damage has been done.
Everytime you love,
Everytime you try,
You think another memory.
I don't know where it goes or what we're going to do,
but know that you're a part of me
