It is an absolutely aweful video. Lady A's "Hello World" Or maybe it is my perspective on the song. I think it (the song) relates to anyone who has been down some pretty rough roads in their life. Having been through a few things recently, I think I can speak to our emotional return to "day to day". As much as we can return to "day to day" after something tragic happens. We don't really return to it, we create a new reality. The holes that are created when someone leaves our life unexpectedly go dark for a long time. Then a small ray of light breaks through. Slowly, you can breathe again. Slowly. Painfully. Each beam of light is a welcome sight but seeing it only recalls what was once in it's place. Which causes it to turn dark again. The deepest wounds take the longest to heal. And the scars never fade. No matter what magical cure all we attempt to cover them with.
I don't know how people without a connect to Jesus function on a day to day basis. I am not claiming perfection here, only a realization of my own imperfection and dependance. I know that I wouldn't be here if I didn't at least know who my Savior is. While I'm not going to go "Tammy Faye" on anyone here, let us not forget what does cause the light to shine, who does help sew up those deepest wounds, and who died for us.
Perspective Folks. As C.S. Lewis states : "Enemy - occumpied territory is what this world is" Don't forget that. It makes each moment special. Whether it be in joy or grief. Neither one lasts forever. At least not here.
Hello World.
