Finding company with the old band
Even with new songs and rhythms
Old friends are easy to come by here
It isn't long until laughter fills the quiet places in my heart.
Tonight, there is a grand meeting coming
Where opposites have the chance to become one
Yet forgetting the occasion, my nakedness is overwhelming...
A woman in a red dress appears and her beauty melts my heart
Full of patience, she wipes the tears from my face
With a comfort not known since childhood
Even still, there is an old temptress who questions the sincerity
Pulling me back into past lives
Drawing me into my own doubts
Before challenging — the woman vanishes, leaving nothing but wonder
Too late to go back, choosing to remember
To take a chance on love again

Peaceful Purpose
I have noticed that in the professional sphere, as far as I have noticed, that many people choose to come to work, mainly with the intention of collecting a paycheck, which I completely understand, unfortunately, we all need money to survive in this world. I also feel very strongly about the fact that if you are going to work in a profession, you should certainly treat that profession, whatever it may be, with the dignity that its purpose entails, whether you are working in the medical field, or working at a fast food restaurant, you should do you best to do the best job you can, because when it comes right down to it, we are all humans, going through the trials, and challenges that this life can bring us, by working together.
