Papa’s Funeral

Today was Papa’s funeral. The service was simple and small. It was outside at the cemetery with the pastor of my home church, Crossroads, speaking and the saxophonist from the same church.

Wild at Heart Chapter 9

  A Battle to Fight: The Strategy It is pretty amazing how paratroopers were being cowards and we drunk on liquor (opening example). I should say they’d be charged with derelection of duty.

Comfortably Numb

I first heard this song on a friend’s Myspace blog. Except the video was just a live performance. I know this song can be about drugs or the fever the band member had as a child. But you know what? I long to be numb sometimes. Numb to all my struggles, to all the stress, [...]
