Gratitude

12/10/2023

I may have mentioned that I often connect with lyrics when listening to music. A few days a go an old Eurythmics tune popped up...Love is a Stranger...not a terrible song, kind of catchy and fun to sing along to. Inside it has some pretty biting lyrics if you really listen. One bit has been rattling around in my head ever since...in a sequence of the ways to describe love when it hurts...it shines like destruction.

The beauty is that if I had to describe how something shines like destruction I probably could not however, the point is clearly made in the lyric. Anything that can shine like destruction is probably frightening, deadly and beautiful all at once. It is probably that thing that we should never touch but can never avoid.

Just the thought in my head as I work on this Sunday morning.
