Wish You Were Here

*Please bear with me because this will be quite personal today and may not make a lot of sense.

So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
Blue skys from pain.
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

~Pink Floyd

Same song, same liquor, different tears.  I love you, friend!

Since this only makes sense to two people in the world, I will say this to everyone else.  Being a good friend is the hardest and easiest thing in the world.  It will always make you a better person.  Hug your friends every chance you can, whether they think they need it or not.

Have a great weekend, everyone XOXO

  2. OMG. I am having a hard time typing because of tears.. Yes, real ones..

    Wow. I don't think I've heard that song since Clemson and not thought of you. I am also pretty sure I haven't had Jim Beam since then.. Good, painful memories!! No more sad tears, though. Let's have some from laughing so hard!!

    Thank you so much for being such an amazing friend. I am very fortunate to have you in my life. You make my heart hurt a little less!!

    I love you!!

    Peace and love and hugs and kisses and great music and gratuitous amounts of alcohol and Duke.
