soundtrack of life ~ a time to remember
if you’re like me, associating certain songs or albums with particular junctures and episodes in life is normal. further, sometimes my imagination shifts into 6th gear at the weirdest times and i find myself thinking: “if this were a movie, i know a perfect tune that would totally fit here.” what’s even better is that if jer isn’t in a grumpy mood, he “lets” me pick the music for the short films we put together.
anyway…
almost two years ago around the time my uncle passed away, a short instrumental track from Zao’s, The Funeral of God lodged itself into my psyche, and i now associate it with times of introspection and reflection. needless to say, i’ve listened to it repeatedly over the last few days.
without trying to sound melodramatic, something died last week, and in this case a resurrection is not possible. my boss/friend/mentor made a mistake that has changed the trajectory of the lives closest to him, our community and our friendship. the loss is so great.
anyway…
i hope you like the tune: 10 I Lay Sleepless In My Grave.mp3
