I'm In Love Again

Written in a 20 minute frenzy and recorded when Zarah was the mere age of 17 this song is a great show of Zarah's trademark impassioned vocal style. The first recorded example of her experimentation with open tuning her raggedy old acoustic guitar, and arranging other instruments. This song features the deep rumbling of piano accordion which grounds the track and sets a deeply melancholic foundation for her vocals. Charlie Powlett from Second Hand Sound plays beautiful accompaniment and captures her sound in a raw, semi-live setting that draws listeners in to the belly of the beast that is the fury and love of a young woman.

We're All Chasing Something

The Universe is so vast that no one even knows how big it actually is, because no telescope is powerful enough to see the edges of the Universe. There's a fair chance that it doesn't even have edges...

Compared to how big the Universe is our whole planet is the tiniest, most minute, most insignificant spec in comparison.

Many scientists believe that out planet is about 4 billion years old and no one really has a clue how old the Universe actually is.

Compared to the amount of time there has ever been the length of our lifetimes is a tiny, minute, insignificant amount of time.

How many people get remembered 50 years after they've died...? How many people are remembered 100 years after they've died? Do you remember your great grand parents? Your great great grandparents?

How much of what we do in our lives really matters in the grand scheme of things?

We're only here for a short while, so is there any point spending the short time we have in our lives, on this planet, being upset? 

I especially don't think there's any reason to be upset about trivial things...?

...and in a way everything can be seen as trivial. Existence can be seen as trivial.

If you're feeling upset about something right now, I want you to stop and think would I be upset about what I'm feeling upset about if I was going to die today?

Life's too short to spend it being upset. Allow yourself to be happy as you can be, as often as you can be.

That doesn't mean you should find happiness in harming other people or animals, or do things that will harm the very small oasis that we call planet earth.

But we're all lucky to be alive, so we might as well enjoy our lives. We might as well celebrate being alive.
