I now know why many traditions include some form of Sun worship. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_deity
I saw the most magnificent sunset this evening and the effect is still with me now. I had an intention to put the experience into words when I sat down to write this post, but I realize now that that is going to be really difficult. Instead of trying to describe the experience with literal words, I thought I would try and share it with you via the lyrics of the song that was playing on the radio during the entire sunset.

For the record... those of you who know me personally and know my taste in music will understand exactly how hard it is for me to admit that I was listening to a radio station that plays this band... but, whatever... there it is.... I listen to a radio station that plays Foo Fighters.



Foo Fighters "Walk"

"A million miles away
Your signal in the distance
To whom it may concern
I think I lost my way
Getting good at starting over
Every time that I return

I'm learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
I'm learning to talk again
Can't you see I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?

Do you remember the days
We built these paper mountains
And sat and watched them burn
I think I found my place
Can't you feel it growing stronger
Little conquerors

I'm learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
I'm learning to talk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?

Now
For the very first time
Don't you pay no mind
Set me free again
To keep alive a moment at a time
But still inside a whisper to a riot
To sacrifice but knowing to survive
The first to climb another state of mind
I'm on my knees, I'm praying for a sign
Forever, whenever
I never wanna die
I never wanna die
I never wanna die
I'm on my knees
I never wanna die
I'm dancing on my grave
I'm running through the fire
Forever, whenever
I never wanna die
I never wanna leave
I never say goodbye
Forever, whenever, forever, whenever

I'm learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?
I'm learning to talk again
Can't you see I've waited long enough
Where do I begin?

I'm learning to walk again
I believe I've waited long enough
I'm learning to talk again
Can't you see I've waited long enough"


Love!


P.S. You can send all jesting emails to: shamefuladmittance@carson.com

P.P.S. Here's the official music video for the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PkcfQtibmU It's kinda funny.

P.P.P.S. I was sitting in my car on the freeway when the sun was setting.
