random thoughts on a tuesday: on losing sight of...
There was an old meme that went around the blogosphere years ago, and one part of it was 3 Things You’d Like To Do Before You Die.
I never got to post mine up — I think it’s safe to say that it’s buried in the depths of my Livejournal. I don’t remember my answers exactly, but I know they went something like this:
1. Travel the world and share my music with people...

too beautiful not to share;
little-epiphanies:
(a remix of ‘to the sea’)
and it’s like a hammer to the heart (this is how it breaks)
when the world takes me
for granted, and that
i take the world for less.
songs (secrets) spilling against unforgiving stone.
but there is absolution in starlight (your light)
and there is nothing else worth having but your heart.

thesunkeeper asked: What a wonderful person you are. =) I understood and agreed with every word you wrote to Sara, and it gives me so much hope to see that there are people who care as much as I do for others, so much hope. Thank you sweet girl for sharing yourself with the world! :)

about this week's cover: coldplay's "the...
You know that feeling when, you should be confident about something you’ve done, something you love; but then hesitation sets in and you backtrack? I had that this week.
I’ve wanted to do a Coldplay cover or a long time now. The only real reason I put it off was because I couldn’t help thinking to myself: This is Coldplay, Noey. You need to do them justice.
I was a late...

before i turn in for the night (or morning, as...
I stumbled upon this poem while going through my LJ friendslist tonight, and I’m sharing it here because I believe that the message it bears is relevant — not just to women, but to everyone. While yes, at a quick, superficial glance, this poem appears to tackle an issue that primarily concerns women; but the truth of the matter is, the subject that the poem is talking about is an...
trying out Tumblr Tuesday →
it always leaves me a little stunned, but i really, really love how incredibly supportive my friends are of my music — ILUSM ZYN! thank you thank you thank you for posting this bb!
now, i know that it might come off really lame to ask people for recommendations for Tumblr Tuesdays, so i just want to make it clear: no one is obligated to do this.
however, if in case you do want to...

Stone Charles Simic
Go inside a stone That would be my way. Let somebody else become a dove Or gnash with a tiger’s tooth. I am happy to be a stone.
From the outside the stone is a riddle: No one knows how to answer it. Yet within, it must be cool and quiet Even though a cow steps on it full weight, Even though a child throws it in a river; The stone sinks, slow, unperturbed To the river...
you're welcome, sweetheart :D
Very, very cool. Also! Thank you so much for the follow ♥

I’ve been trying to figure out how exactly to talk about this week’s cover because after my batteries running out and then crashing the night after because I was running on empty, and then seven takes into the wee hours of the morning… to finally hit the song just right, well; I have no one else to thank but the people whose lives I have the privilege of glimpsing if only because...
