I Seem What You Mean To See In Me

FeelBetter

A little bit of kindness 
Spread throughout the day
Guaranteed to make it better
In each and every way

You don’t have to be a martyr
Don’t have to be a star
Reach out to one another
Wherever you are

You’ll feel better 
When you 
treat one another like you’re…
Sister and brother

Yea there’ll be some that
Just not to friendly
They’ll make hard just to
Get through the day
But you don’t have to
Pay them no mind no
Let all their griping go 
Right down the drain

You’ll feel better 
When you 
treat one another like you’re…
Sister and brother

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ wha wha wha ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

Now you don’t have to worry no 
Cause it’s so easy to do
Just be kind to everyone and
They’ll do the same for you

Then there will be

Good times feeling fine
Free and easy
Nothing going to ruin the day
Sunshine on my mind
Bright and breezy
Blowing all the dark Clouds away

You’ll feel better 
When you 
treat one another like you’re…
You’ll feel better 
When you treat one another like you’re
Sister and brother
When you treat one another
Like you’re Sister and brother

FeelBetter

The extraordinarily talented Belial Pelegrim and I have spent the past year working on a very special project.  The end result is an EP based on nature and the changing seasons.  Here is the first single - a lille taste of what is on our "Movements of a Cloud" EP which will be released on February 25th via Bricolage.  Working with BP * https://soundcloud.app.goo.gl/VZKQ3MBxyX1E2VVE6  * is always an exciting and fulfilling experience.  :) 

Check the EP out here:

It is with unbridled glee that I finally get to share a (long overdue) first collab with our dear friend, and ambient artist extraordinaire, Jo (https://soundcloud.com/minimal_drone_grl, https://minimaldronegrl.bandcamp.com/). The results are quite exciting, to say the least. We hope you enjoy our sonic adventure, 'Flora's Beautiful Dream'. :)

And now for our little story...

The first signs of morning sunlight appear above the mountain’s rock covered peaks, as the Earth spins us around to witness the brilliance of another new day. Bright rays shine visibly through the morning mist, and dewdrops sparkle like diamonds among the tree leaves as the valley below slowly fills with warmth and light. 

Flora watches from her vantage point high above; witnessing her friends in the forest come alive to greet another day; and the people in the city streets down in the valley below come alive to serve another day. She’s watched this dance for many years; the forest remaining peaceful in its ancient perfection; the people below growing ever more unsatisfied as they strive for an illusionary and strangely unattainable perfection of their own.
	
This idea might sound sad to you and I. But over the years she has also seen miracles occur among us. From her vantage point she sees us like fields of energy; and the majority of that energy looks rather stagnant and mucky, like cesspools of unmoving water, unaware of the renewing stream we have been cut off from. But once in a while, an explosion of light energy will burst outward from a single house or apartment building, as someone becomes disenfranchised from their false identity, and their hearts open up to new ideas for the first time.

Surprisingly, these changes often occur after great loss. And she suspects this is due to the fragility of our illusion. She sees how lost we all are in these roles and characters we have built for ourselves, and she sees how quickly that false identity can shatter when we lose the things we prioritized the most. The loss of a relationship or loved one, a terminal illness in the body, the end of a career, a complete collapse in financial stability… when we lose the things we thought mattered most to us, some of us experience a miraculous opportunity for awakening to the truth that we were never those things to begin with. 

Flora lovingly watches the majority of us grow more sickly and stagnant with time. And she never loses hope… because every evening, she has the same beautiful dream. 

In her mind, the first signs of morning sunlight appear above the mountain’s rock covered peaks, as the Earth spins us around to witness the brilliance of another new day. Bright rays shine visibly through the morning mist, and dewdrops sparkle like diamonds among the tree leaves as the valley slowly fills with warmth and light. 

But even brighter still are the explosions of light energy bathing the valley down below. After so many truly dark nights, many of us finally wake up the next morning to discover we were never all the things we lost in the night. In fact, we are something much larger. And as our energy explodes out, and the laws of attraction take hold, these simultaneous bursts prove to be strong and frequent enough to cause a chain reaction… and the whole valley lights up brighter than the sun itself. 

We have finally realized we are simply conscious life, and nothing more. And in our new found freedom from identity, we all begin again.

Flora slumbers peacefully, knowing full well… this dream will some day come true.
