| | This is my first post in a while. A lot of things going on..
First, my departure is final. April 6th
is the date. I arrive the Philippines the 7th. I'm really stressed
right now. Although I've been working out jobs and places where I could
stay, there's just a whole lot ahead of me that I can't help feeling
scared about.
I've moved around so much
recently, having to meet new friends and leaving them over and over..
Looking for places to live, things to make money off of, familiarizing
myself with the city.. Everything seems so blurry, like everything's
happening and not happening all at once. I am confident though that
everything will work out in time and that I am where I need to be. It's
just not knowing exactly how to get there... that's what's scaring me.
Of course, leaving Joanna's
gonna suck. But, I welcome this test on our relationship. I know that
whatever comes our way, we'll be able to make it through. Of course, with a little help.

I was listening to the Weepies
again today, and I cam across this song that was probably written for a
son or daughter. And it gave me just what I needed. I've been longing
for that childlike innocence for such a long time (the kind that allows
you to smile and be happy without worries in the back of your mind) and
I feel like this song captured it for me.
listen.. and read..
back when I was comfortable
Comfort
When everyone has gone to sleep and you are wide awake
there's no one left to tell your troubles to.
Just an hour ago, you listened to their voices
lilting like a river over underground
and the light from downstairs came up soft like daybreak
dimly as the heartache of a lonely child.
If you can't remember a better time
you can have mine, little one.
In days to come when your heart feels undone
may you always find an open hand
and take comfort wherever you can.
And oh, it's a strange place.
And oh, everyone with a different face
but just like you thought when you stopped here to linger
we're only as separate as your little fingers.
So cry, why not? we all do
then turn to one you love
and smile a smile that lights up all the room.
Follow your dreams in through every out-door
it seems that's what we're here for.
And when you can't remember a better time
you can have mine, little one.
In days to come when your heart feels undone
may you always find an open hand
and take comfort, there is comfort.
Take comfort wherever you can, you can, you can.
