the sound of white.

this morning i woke up like
nothing. slept in a little, but
attended school.
talked to my friends.
my heart and mind,
were not with me today.
they were with the family,
the friends of Taylor Mitchell.
as a Cape Breton Highlands National Park employee
i say it came as such a shock.
i would just like to put out a shout
a prayer to the beautiful Taylor Mitchell

her passing comes as a suddency
soon before our expectancy
a whisper, a brush by, echoing reality
the dust, the end the finality.

the beauty, the music
the love, the strife
the angels sang for you
in this life.

i didnt know you,
Taylor,
but my heart is with you and your family.
in this tragic time.

foy vance.

you have to understand,
that i love music. i think it touches the soul and takes the breath away
and makes memories a little more permanent.
so if you've ever heard foy vance and listened to 5 seconds of either one of his songs
you'll understand
what i mean when i say "wow"
simply, "wow".
indiscriminate act of kindness, gabriel & the vagabond, and two shades of hope
are three of my favorites (if its possible to have favorites)
gabriel & the vagabond was my first impression, the story of a homeless man with the same idea as the pay-it-forward chronicles.
two shades of hope, from what i can tell, is about cancer.
and indiscriminate act of kindness, well everyone can relate.

download him. listen to that voice. listen to those words.
he knows what hes talkin about.

the girl that smiles.




it's a half life.


one last showdown.
