I am not afraid of the dark....

"sometimes you gotta bleed to know, that you're alive and have a soul...but it takes someone to come around...and show you how."  (Tear in my Heart....Twenty One Pilots)

sometimes it's super dark.....and sometimes you forget....maybe you are just in a tunnel? 

and you only have to go a little bit further....and you will see the light.....


well....I'm not afraid of the dark...because I know there is always light....


people who give up and sit in the dark...because they accept if for what it is....

they may never feel the sun on their face.....they have no hope....no faith...no optimism...

and they would probably love it, you know...the sun.  on their face...but they figure...

hey...it's dark...it is what it is.....


and if they only made a choice...to walk a little further...and turn the corner....they may truly be amazed about what lies ahead....


and sometimes...they need a flashlight....a brilliant flashlight....that shows them a


taste....of what life is like.....in warm glow.....of the light......the distant sun......

which brings me to this song....that I was suddenly listening to.  I love Crowded House...and this version is by Brooke Fraser.

but....I love this song so much...

Distant Sun, Crowded House

tell me all the things you would change,
I don't pretend to know what you want...
When you come around and spin my top,
time and again...time and again...

No fire where I lit my spark,
I am not afraid of the dark...
where your words devour my heart,
and put me to shame...

when your seven worlds collide
whenever I am by your side
and dust from a distant sun
will shower over everyone

you're still so young to travel so far,
old enough to know who you are,
wise enough to carry the scars,
without any blame, there's no one to blame
it's easy to forget what you learned,
waiting for the thrill to return...
feeling your desire burn,

you're drawn to the flame...

and so...hey...

maybe stop sitting in the dark and kick your own ass....and go seek out the light.....

you will be much happier there....you already know how to get there...just start walking forward....but just keep going. 



peace...and love....and the distant sun....that isn't as distant as you think.... you might need sunglasses....a sun hat....some sun screen....or....fuck it...just enjoy it.....get a sun burn.
