Description
Driving in no man's land, the far west of Cuba, and listening to "Peace" by Anders Osborne from my player... the perfect description of my life now.
Gotta be something down this highway,
Something familiar, someone I know,
I'm sick and tired of doing it my way,
I need something sacred, and somewhere slow.
Looking for the same upon every mountain,
Down on every beach.
Playing all my songs all the way from Woodstock,
Down to New Orleans,
And I'm still looking, oh I'm looking,
Looking for a day of peace.
Sometimes death comes like a blessing,
And sometimes big dreams can kill a man.
I've seen dirty needles turn into wisdom,
And I've seen love I don't understand.
Been looking for the same upon every mountain,
And down on every beach.
Playing all my songs all the way from Woodstock,
Down to New Orleans,
But I'm still looking, oh I'm looking,
Looking for a day of peace.
[Anders Osborne]

Micah that is good that you are at peace with it. I had an insecure childhood, then moved a lot, I long for a place where I belong. Maybe that's an illusion. I wrote a song about it. Just recorded my first CD of original songs.Will release it when we copyright it.

I relate to this. I have been searching for place all of my life, since Mom died when I was 14 and home was not home anymore. I thought I found it, but it isn't here. The search continues.

Marie, you know... I'm a stranger everywhere! I accepted my condition and, in the end, I love it.
