This album fell into my lap during the latter part of my day. I started with an early-ish morning, early for me, late for most. I cleaned myself; collected my things and I presented myself to the world. I took some new turns that I don’t see everyday. I wound up exploring some new faces and conversed in a stimulating matter. I met with old friends, I connected with recent friends, I cuddled my cat.

It was a good day. Simple.

The afternoon was spent crafting something special for someone I love. A child’s idea of a gift, perhaps. I am a child. Inside. I always will be. For the loving nature that can be seen giving from a child is something I wish to evolve the rest of my life.

Peace and tranquility, two things people strive for. Two things I was blessed with today. People wish these upon themselves, when it already comes from within. You cannot bestow peace upon another. Tranquility must be found in the pages of your own book, your own story.

A song without lyrics can sometimes tell a story where words would otherwise fail. Emotions don’t produce words; people produce words. Without our speech there is just feeling, a guiding light that channels within to tingle through the body. Feelings. They’re addressed as nouns–Wrong. A feeling is not something you can see; a feeling is something that is forever in hiding. Hiding from the world in the dark crevasses of your mind, your soul, and your body.

How would you name something without a word? When I think about different aspects in my life I can denote the situation, or the person, or thing, with a feeling. This is why I hate change. It’s not the physical attributions that come with change, but the emotional shift. Associating a feeling with a physical thing is dangerous and satisfying and necessary for human existence.
I’ve attached a day to this album. I’ve attached a mind set to these individual songs.

I’ve attached an emotion to the memory.

Those attachments will be categorized and placed within my mind, for safekeeping.

A piano and my mind. Two, wildly different things. Which blessed me with tranquility, for 41 minutes.

Felt like a lifetime.
