I am feeling this.. about a lot of people. It always gives me goosebumps...

That's my light side.

My darker, succubus side is feeling this...

I am a complicated person.

Talk about narcissism! I just quoted myself. Let me go back.

That's better. Just listened to Jim Reeves singing Danny Boy and wanted to thank you again. Not to get mushy, but it always makes me cry.

It does me, too, Anni. It's no wonder so many people want it played at their funeral.

To play you a different version, Anni. This is the Proms festival... which is a massive classical music deal in the UK, I think you might get a kick out of this... Ending with the most patriotic British thing you can ever have in the "Last Night of the Proms", which... I will link you if you want. But this is a whole deal, and this was a part of it...

Too Good At Goodbyes • Sam Smith

That song is literally me.. the song. And I kind of hate it. I am way too cold and distant to people because I have more defensive walls than fort knox. I am always suspicious and defensive because I have been hurt too many times in the past. If a girl ever gets past all that... then... yeah, you're the one. But you need to be literally Eowyn from Lord of the Rings. I am 99% a cold, hard ice queen. And I am sorry for that.

I see a woman who's kept her heart safe so she could offer it fully one day, to the right one. 🙂

I wish you were right, Lilis. God... I really wish you were right. The last person I was like that with.. was the only time I ever loved enough to want to marry. She died in a car crash. I held her in my arms. I wasn't in the car, but she held on long enough so I could see the light leave her eyes.

Her name was Lauren. That's when I changed my name. To stupidly let her live on. To keep her alive.

That sounds really dumb, and creepy... and I'm sorry. She is not dead while I am alive. That's the best I can give.

Stunning. And elegant. Sometimes, lyrics get in the way of music.Thanks.

Oh... that breaks my heart, so deeply tragic.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Lauren. 🫂

It's okay, Lilis. It was a long, long time ago.. I haven't really wanted that ever since but I am okay. I just like seeing people and making them feel good. There's probably something very deeply wrong with me to not want to, you know... stuff. But I don't think in those terms. And... uh I think she would be happy I was trying to make the world a good place in her name. Or it's just a giant excuse and someone should call the cops hahaha. I haven't quite decided. All I knonw is that I am very guarded with people. And I am sorry for that.

But stuff happens. The only way to live is to decide how to live with life. If you can't then... you're going to be in kind of a bad place.

No one could give more, Lauren. No one ever has.

Dances With Trees · June 18, 2025, 06:25:35 PM

I watched 'Empathy' on my TV (sound sucks on this laptop). I was expecting a song. And I heard one.

Dances With Trees · June 19, 2025, 02:17:38 PM

I'm not sure what I'm looking for, but I've read through this last page of posts a dozen times as though seeking an answer to a question I can't find the words for.

But I wholeheartedly agree with Lilis. Sephirah is such a bright burning star who will someday find someone brave enough and strong enough and gentle enough to behold her brightness without being blinded. You are both such amazing women.

I actually really love this. Funny thing is I found it by accident a couple of weeks ago and it struck a chord with me. Beautiful song. <3

This is a cover of, quite possibly, my favourite song of all time. Makes me tear up every time. Not even really sure why.

Absolutely love that cover Sephirah!

Here are a couple of my Sinead favs...

She was such a gift to the world...

Onward We Go...

She was. Sometimes, some people come along who have such a special gift to reach out to people. Be that through song, literature, art, or simple human encouragement (not mentioning any names

). All gifts to the world.

Thank you for those, Ash. I hadn't heard them before, but they're going on my playlist. The only other song I'd heard from Sinead was probably one of her more famous ones, at least in the UK. And still breathtaking.

As you know, I'm hearing impaired (though I did catch Alanis singing: thank you for seeing me, and, well, thank you, too). I love Sinead and once upon a time understood her lyrics. Even so, I felt what she was singing and will see if I can find a close-captioned version on YouTube (that place is like my favorite general store just west of Missoula: they have everything). I remember when I learned of Ms. O'Connor's passing. Don McLean was wrong: that was the night the music died.
