How's this?

I'm listening to ISOTLC. I was singing with SLM not too long ago, at work. Ask me if I care. I was in-tune, but I don't know how loud I was, as I just had to listen with both ear pods.

OK. I have ostracized myself. I don't have people skills, so somebody is going to help me learn the lively art of conversation while luna is gone. I didn't get the memo.

Alo-HA!

I know you asked luna, but I'll comment since she is on the road, now. (Lucky her.) I really enjoyed that. The sounds are smooth, the harmonies nice.

As for the lyrics, I'm interpreting the song on two levels. He could be talking about a biological brother or a bro for whom he would go through anything because of love. More likely, though, he is talking about his Savior. I say that due to references to grace and a divine difference.

Theologically, I hear confusion. It sounds like he is mad at God for the mess called life. Rather than taking trials as necessary for spiritual growth, he seems to want to take his medicine lumps, while being a little teed off. If I interpret him correctly, he thinks an omnipotent God has gotten him wrong. Typically, when people come to me with complaints about their faith, it is not their faith that is on trial, but the weirdness in the philosophy of others that is confusing them. They need somebody else to tell them that whoever is preaching to them is in err, and they need to follow the true and living God.

So, yeah. Riches are OK, and there is no apology, and God is not going to punish anybody for worldly success. The problems come in the manner of acquisition and the stewardship. I think Harket fell victim to the line about blessings being evil. No. God wants us all to be successful, and when we are successful, we can help others.

That bit about standing Him down if he tries to turn his compass 'round is a little hard to take. He is saying, if I read him right, there is something in his life so valuable that he would second-guess the wisdom of an omniscient God. This is theological fallacy. Whenever you follow the promptings of the Spirit, things turn out unexpectedly wonderful - at least they do in my life.

Theologically again, the video reminded me of that old joke about "Don't make waves." I was also reminded about "The Shack," where Surahu was complimented when the hero told her the garden, which we learned later represented his life, was a mess. The point being, things down here look chaotic, but when we see the full picture, from the proverbial mile high, we will see were blind to the beautiful patterns playing out in the forest for the trees.

The video is good. The guy starts out in a pond of lily pads, which are among the most foul-smelling plants in nature, I believe. To his credit, Harket is showing he is willing to put up with a lot of guck for something, which I believe is love and commitment.

Well, there's a superficial scrape. I'll probably think about it throughout the next day or two. Thanks for sharing.

I'm just listening to the cars go by, now.

Oh. It helps to wear both ear pods.

This one's beyond tremendous:

The mix has the title "Mix - MIke Dawes - Boogie Slam (2013_ Solo Acoustic Guitar." I hope you find it. I looked so hard for this level of virtuosity. And to think, I found it via Justin Hayward.

I was listening to the justinhangwardhayout. I kept mashing buttons at inopportune times. I thought I would be able to hear every word if I were to head on over and stand just outside the door to the Resident's Proom at the Stalking Tick, but I couldn't get permission. Luna wanted me to tell everybody she is well and happy and says hi. She also wanted me to tell you , "If you are in a place where you barely get any sunshine, for example I live in Seattle and in ... Well, I don't think it is pale green or yellow, and it has been in it's current pot for a while." Not really. I'm just giving her a hard time. She needs to get a soda. Biyeeeeee!

Candyrat has proven to be a treasure trove. Dig this:

CTA, "Someday."

The printer.

What did Justin say in Houston after the monologue about "One Day, Someday" being more truthful, wondering what he just said, the audience being patient to sit there wondering what he was thinking about what he just said, and all that? It sounded like, "The idiot answered."
