Maybe Divinity is something different than we have always thought. Maybe we are different too. Maybe the burdens we carry aren’t real. Maybe. These are just suggestions.

    Maybe we can burn all the boats. Soundcloud song Lyrics: No I’m not going back Cause I’ve burned all the boats No I’m not going back To the coast I came over the waves People said I was brave But I’m not going back There again You said build me an army You said bring me the gold You said we’re chosen aren’t we I have learned that’s not so Just so you know You can never send hernando de Soto de Léon, cortes, or Coronado You can never send Pizarro among us Cause I burned all my boats back to you I’m bizarro Columbus So I’m moving ahead You have left me for dead Saying I have gone native In my head But I don’t really mind All I’m leaving behind Cause those voices were yours Never mine You said build me an army You said bring me the gold You said we’re chosen aren’t we I have learned that’s not so Just so you know You can never send hernando de Soto de Léon, cortes, or Coronado You can never send Pizarro among us Cause I burned all my boats back to you I’m bizarro Columbus You tried to send your best But he sailed over the ledge I came into the west And all I found was the edge of your world I will block all your hernando de Sotos de Léons, cortes, or Coronados You will never send Pizarro among us Cause I burned all my boats back to you I’m bizarro Columbus

    Maybe my chaos is order.   Link to Highly Sensitive Refuge article Link to SoundCloud music Link to I Got You music video Link to I Got You Spotify Link to I Got You Apple Music   Lyrics: Oh I’ve always been a hurricane Who is living on tranquility lane Every single day I smile and wave But every once in a while I completely destroy everything   My order is chaos It taunts and dismays us It builds me a city  It makes me look pretty Then kills us and flays us My chaos is order I sit in the corner I cry myself silly I hate it but really It’s moving me forward   I can always feel your pain Deep inside my own my parietal brain Every day I smile and say “How are you?” but sometimes my shame blows us away   My order is chaos It taunts and dismays us It builds me a city  It makes me look pretty Then kills us and flays us My chaos is order I sit in the corner I cry myself silly I hate it but really It’s moving me forward   How are you out on the Gulf of Mexico? While I’m stuck inside afraid of letting go How do you have space to change the world we know? While I’m still afraid to show   My order is chaos It taunts and dismays us It builds me a city  It makes me look pretty Then kills us and flays us My chaos is order I sit in the corner I cry myself silly I hate it but really It’s moving me forward

    Maybe I’ve always been me.   Lyrics: I never knew myself at all I only knew the imperfections I only knew the trip and fall I only knew the wrong direction   I couldn’t feel the way I felt I couldn’t handle my emotions The only thing that I knew well Was how to go through all the motions   But I’ve always been me And I’ve always been free I didn’t know it I didn’t know it The eyes I saw through didn’t show it   But I’ve always been me And I’ve always been free Like a star who’s always searching for the light   For the light for the light I was searching for the light For the light for the light for the light   I always knew just who I was I always had my intuition I always questioned myself but My deepest heart came to fruition   Despite my overwhelming fear Despite my insecure existence My truest self was always here So Bravely leading the resistance   Cause I’ve always been me And I’ve always been free Now I know it Now i know it And every moment seems to show it   Cause I’ve always been me And I’ve always been free Like a star who’s only searching for delight   For delight for delight I’m just searching for delight For delight for delight for delight

    Tonight is a night for crying.   Song Lyrics: Tonight is a night for crying So stop the distractions of my mind Tonight is a night for dying inside As my heart gently says, “it’s time” All the heroes that I’ll never turn into All my advice that they’d all want to know All the praises from without and within too I don’t want them, but I weep as they go Tonight I am tired of being happy Tonight I am tired of smiles on my face Tonight I am tired of compartmentalizing Tonight is a night to be in this place Tonight is a night for crying All the comfortable places are gone Tonight is a night for dying inside The pretending doesn’t have to go on All the money that just isn’t coming All the old mes that have died as I grow All the times I have stood strong in the storming All the times I’ve had to tell those kids The night that I almost lost you Those memories I almost can’t help but replay The time we lost our almost baby The time our son almost floated away Tonight is a night for crying Tonight is a night to cry Tonight is a night for dying inside Tonight is night to die

    Maybe the best thing about when you’re gone is the feeling of wanting you.   Song Lyrics: The only good thing when you’re gone is the feeling of wanting you The only redemption when we’re apart is the desire that I feel for you So when you say you have to leave I like to watch you walk away And I like the sound of the longing voice in my head begging you to stay Give me five more minutes Give me ten more minutes Fifteen or twenty minutes more Five more minutes Ten more minutes Fifteen or twenty five to life I love it so much when you’re fake mad and you call me all kinds of names I love your teasing sideways looks and your tantalizing games I want this moment to last so long oh never let it fade away I want to keep on wanting you from now until my dying day Give me five more minutes Give me ten more minutes Fifteen or twenty minutes more Five more minutes Ten more minutes Fifteen or twenty five to life Before we met life was fine Life with you now is amazing But even when you’re not here At least I get to experience wanting you

    Maybe the only thing we have to fear is the fear of fear.   Lyrics to today’s song “The Fear is Silent”: I thought I saw some humans but I missed em Cause fear just kept them covered in the system I thought I saw some lips and so I kissed em But fear spat propaganda for the system Fear said to me that the only way to be a member’s If the only fun times are the fun times that I don’t remember And fear said if I want to be the salt the light the leaven Then I mostly need more squinty eyes with hands held up to heaven And the fear said that to join the club that’s driving round the Bentley Means a capitalistic life spent at work is life well spently And the fear certainly never left a single shred of doubt That a person’s value’s based upon how well their kids turned out The fear is in the storm and in the quiet It’s there when you are poor or flush to buy it And it makes sure that your staying well in line, it Fills the system with the systemites inside it When it comes don’t push it down or try to hide it Let it be just what it is don’t try to style it When you love the part that fears and don’t defile it The fear is silent Tell me all your fears, why don’t you list em And I’ll tell you why your trapped within the system ask me all your questions, don’t resist em Cause questions shake the pillars of the system Pillar one is if you have some inkling for belonging Then accept their definition of the righting and the wronging Pillar two says they are fine with failing or succeeding Yeah as long as those don’t compromise this system that they’re needing Pillar three’s if you can’t be some version of the same Then shame upon shame upon shame upon shame Pillar four is they want more from you than you can give Cause the system should seem valid every moment that you live The fear is in the storm and in the quiet It’s there when you are poor or flush to buy it And it makes sure that your staying well in line, it Fills the system with the systemites inside it When it comes don’t push it down or try to hide it Let it be just what it is don’t try to style it When you love the part that fears and don’t defile it The fear is silent Your anger is the wall that hurts the ones who are outside Your fear is just the voice that wants the wall there to survive Your pain is what you’re feeling everyday that you’re alive And your courage tells you that this is the time to take the dive Into the pain will kill you but from those dark ashes you will rise And your anger all will melt away as you will see the lie Your fear’ll no longer push a system keeping you in line It will be silent So ask me all your questions don’t resist em And tell me all your fears go on and list em And love the parts that fear and once you’ve kissed em Then let their silence free you from the system

    What if we let go?   Show notes: Several folks have asked me to post lyrics to the songs so I will try to be better about that from now on: LET GO He closes the panel after fixing the life-support system The space suit makes most people clumsy, but he is the best His breath in and out keeps a peaceful and comforting rhythm Till he faces away and his heart skips a beat in his chest The stars are innumerably peppering the deafening silence The vast empty spaces are crushing the scope of his mind The beauty is terribly grasping and holding his focus He can’t turn away to go back to the safety he’d find Ooh, what if he let go? Ooh, what if he let go? He thinks back on all of the pride in the eyes of his neighbors He thinks back on all of the late nights for all of the grades He feels all the mountains of pressure, and the compassion craters He remembers the night that he left her, but he should have stayed “And never forget to ensure that you’ve fastened your harness And never let anyone down who is counting on you And you are the hope of the future of human existence” He knows all these guidelines by heart, but man what a view Ooh, what if he let go? Ooh, what if he let go? He lets every finger release from the handle beside him And slowly drifts farther and farther away from his ship The terror he feels is matched only by the exultant freedom Till the tether snaps tight and the line holds him fast in its grip And his anger explodes at the structures that refuse to release him And his anger explodes at the grip that they have on his life Then his eyes find the place of the tether’s release mechanism And the terror and freedom again cut his heart like a knife Ooh, what if he let go? Ooh, what if he let go? As the focus of all of his life’s work becomes just a pinpoint As the rule that the entangled people exerted is done He turns and observes all the universe for his enjoyment And marvels at all of the treasure that he has just won And his suit begins beeping that his oxygen is at a low point And his radio angrily crackles with petulant noise And his eyes find the button that releases the seal of his suit’s joint And he finally let’s the world hear his genuine voice Ooh, what if we let go? Ooh, what if we let go?
