With love from the wide ocean.

I have been lacking in the inspiration department lately. Hence, the lack of any new posts that would possibly be worth your time. (Not guaranteeing anything with this one either, but here goes. If anything, hopefully it will help you procrastinate on whatever it is you should be doing instead for just a little bit longer.)

HOWEVER, it seems that the Crystal Fighters are bringing it back. (My inspiration, that is. They never lost their thang.) Well, it's like a rolling stone. Nothing spectacular yet, but I think I can hear the gears s t a r t i n g to turn. Crossing my fingers that it's about to get going.  Much needed.

Anywho, last weekend I joined one of my dear friends in the wilderness (also known as Joshua Tree) for a little world exploration and mind relaxation. There were many notable conversations (from bizarre to profound), lots of spontaneous dancing, native american rock pile contests, and more.  All special in their own way. But to the point >> He showed me a song that was a side of the Crystal Fighters that I hadn't seen heard before. And it really resonated with me. This might lead to a whole post on my music blog about 'em, so keep the ojos peeled.





And if that doesn't get you, then "Love Is All I Got" never fails. Unless you hate love, puppies, dancing, chocolate, and all things good in this world.





[Fill in your own transition here. Forgive me. Like I said... I'm running on limited inspiration.]

Also, Mumford & Sons never fails when it comes to having a song that hits me in the heart strings whenever necessary. Right now, "Roll Away Your Stone" is getting it done: filling the soul with comfort and wisdom.





It seems that all my bridges have been burned
But you say that's exactly how this grace thing works.
It's not the long walk home that will change this heart
But the welcome I receive with a restart.


Whaaaaaat? A lovely reminder?? Hey Mumf, I didn't sign up for that!
Oh wait... yes I did! Because you guys are brilliant. And go-to motivators.
