It Matters

"Isn't one life enough. You ask me why it matters. It matters to me. You matter to me." ~ Q

The Night Watch ~ King Crimson

Closer and closer apart ~ Mary Chapin

Now, my sad little boat floats on out to sea
And you're almost out of sight
I'll remember you
Please don't forget me
I whisper with all my might

There is only this moment, but it contains everything.

The Story

Heaven

Loreena McKennitt ~ Dante's Prayer

Though we share this humble path, alone
How fragile is the heart
Oh give these clay feet wings to fly
To touch the face of the stars
Breathe life into this feeble heart
Lift this mortal veil of fear
Take these crumbled hopes, etched with tears
We'll rise above these earthly cares
Cast your eyes on the ocean
Cast your soul to the sea
When the dark night seems endless
Please remember me
Please remember me

This one is for you ... yes ... you

David Bowie

So very very sad that you are gone. Thank you so much for all of the wonderful music and everything that came with it. With love, admiration, and gratitude.

Happy Birthday Java

Love you girl. Missing you.

May all dogs be loved

If I Be Wrong

If I be wrong, if I be right
Let me stay here in your arms tonight
And I have been wrong, I have been right
I have been both these things all in the same night
So if I be wrong, if I be right
Let me be here with you tonight

The more time you spend in the present moment...

... the more your inherent wisdom will shine through, the richer your life will be, the richer the lives of those around you will be.

I Loved You Best

So this is where we part, My Friend,
and you’ll run on, around the bend,
gone from sight, but not from mind,
new pleasures there you’ll surely find.

I will go on, I’ll find the strength,
life measures quality, not its length.
One long embrace before you leave,
share one last look, before I grieve.

There are others, that much is true
but they be they, and they aren’t you.
And I, fair, impartial, or so I thought,
will remember well all you’ve taught. 

Your place I’ll hold, you will be missed,
the fur I stroked, the nose I kissed.
And as you journey to your final rest,
take with you this … I loved you best.

~ Jim Willis

Walk Away Renee ~ The Left Banke

Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame

A dog, her human, an ambulance.

A dog, her human, an ambulance.

Wicked Games ~ Ursine Vulpine ft. Annaca

The Trapeze Swinger ~ Gregory Alan Isokov

So please remember me, finally
And all my uphill clawing
My dear, but if I make the Pearly Gates
I'll do my best to make a drawing
Of God and Lucifer, a boy and girl
An angel kissin' on a sinner
A monkey and a man, a marching band
All around the frightened trapeze swinger
