If you are looking for the answer in life to know if you are in love look no further.  If you answer `yes` to any of them, guess what?

Words are swords. They are powerful and can last forever. A doorway to understanding. But the source of their power lies more in the Voice. The Sound. The Meaning. I listen.

You see the truth and refuse it.  You are given advice and reject it.  You see the cliff and keep running toward it. But you KNOW what is true.  Your stories are not.

Maybe you did have a rough start in life, but you would never let it go to start fresh.  You create the storm we live in.  You constantly chant `everyone is to blame’ to make you feel better, but all the fingers are still pointing at you.

A look at the life of a celebrity stalker.  Starved for attention, empty lives looking for someone – some reason – some value.  They act like you.  Look like you. Absorbing everything you do and still do not know you at all.  But they are the Best Fan you have.

Looking back I think this was written because people would give me a hard time about what I wore when I played out with the bands I was in.  Some kept saying I had to wear faded jeans, etc. to be a ‘rocker’.  Obviously not true, besides, being the keyboard player I was usually in the back of the stage in the dark.  No one sees the keyboard player.

But if I was going to court to be judged, I will be wearing a suit and tie!

The best of intentions won’t matter if you don’t let someone know them.  Reliving memories, there were so many situations I could have made better or just more enjoyable if I would talk to friends and tell them what I feel or see.

Life is hard when my Default mode is set to ‘Silent”.

This comes from learning lessons one by one and a little too slow.  Once you realize the correct thing to do it is already too late.  Then we think we finally have it down only to see that we were just as naive as before. 

This wasn’t my last song, I have a few more, but still don’t know where I went wrong.

This song dances around the question about a dog chasing a car.  The chase can be fun but what happens when you finally catch the car?  Nothing good.

You can ask three wishes from the genie, but each one can turn out to be a nightmare if you don’t take another look at what you are asking for.

In the past I have read lyrics from older songs that often romantically compare human strength with animal traits, or nature’s beauty.  WE don’t do that anymore.  Most people have never seen a fox or a cheetah.  Those comparisons will fade with time.  The animals will soon be gone forever.

Then we will be like humans; a plague.

Looking at retirement and the final stages of my active life.  What can I get into now that I am literally being paid to do nothing? 

Hobbies?  Volunteer?  Travel?
