good days for 20 somethings

6/14/25

my grandfather,  Charles Barnhart, fulfilled a huge role in my life as my father figure and protector, as he did for his grandchildren, children, wife, siblings, and many others across several communities he took part of. he was an educator of many subjects; history, faith, sportsmanship, kindness, and above all, love. 

his love and dedication to others shined upon everyone that knew him for the nearly 74 years he had on this earth. my family and i often liken him to a large oak tree, both literally and physically, as his presence and stature filled every room he stepped into. two years ago, when i found him passed on that dreary wednesday morning, i knew that my life would never be the same. 

in those two years, so much has changed; i’ve grieved, i’ve loved, i’ve gotten married, i’ve moved out of my childhood home into my very own. and with all this time that has passed and i’ve continued to grow into the person i’m meant to be, i still speak to him every day. every decision i make, every hardship, i ask myself, 

“what would grandpa do?” 

i only hope i grow to be half the tree he was, and i will continue to work towards that for the rest of my life. 
so today, i wanted to remember him with one of his favorite songs. every time i hear it, it makes me cry, but i wouldn’t have it any other way. 

i love you and miss you every day,
until we meet again 💜

the remix is here!! I've learned a lot in the past few months and decided that the track needed a revamp. in addition to remixing the vocals and messing around with mastering, my amazingly talented friend, Phil DiMercurio recorded a drum track for me and I personally think it makes this song. big thanks to him and check him out on insta @pdubjamz I hope y'all enjoy listening!

are you still here? ft. pdubjamz

hi!! yes!!
i've been having a rough time wrapping my head around everything that's happening right now, and i've been listening to a LOT of sza to cope.
ctrl is the album that got me through the hardest year of my life, and it continues to bring me a sense of stability when everything feels like it's falling apart. 
therefore, it only felt right to cover one of my favorite songs from that album and share it with everyone.
if you're listening, i hope you enjoy!!
