I started out last night listening to Christmas music but meandered as I often do in this algorithm based world, and I ended up here. Far from appropriate for the season, you might say, and about events long ago, and far away. Sometimes though, a song captures a feeling, a spirit of something, that I am trying to express and says it better.

In this case, trying to make sense of a world that doesn't seem to make much sense.

Later in the evening I got here. The same artist wrote this song a few years later; a response to the feelings and emotions expressed in the first song--searching for hope instead of anger. At least that is the way I like to think about it.

I know I am not the only one looking for hope in a chaotic world. That is the spirit of this season and my prayer for you (and myself).
