ashes and wine and/or your faith was strong but you needed proof
I'll drown in my tears, don't they see?
That would show you,
That would make you hurt like me
and/or
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne, she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
I had originally thought of this shot to cover Ashes and Wine for Musically Challenged. If y'all aren't playing or haven't been by there in a while, stop on by. It can even provide inspiration for a day of your project where you're kinda stuck on what to shoot. :)

On the way home, Hallelujah came on my iPod. I've avoided this song for almost a year since I first covered it during my first project. I loved this song before the sadness of last year happened. But, I couldn't listen to it after the fact b/c it'd remind me and make me break down, badly. Today, when it came on, I was ok. I cranked it, sang out loud and with it came tears. B/c i'm a crybaby. But, I'm ok; moved so far apart from what happened even though it still stings.
Thomas was talking about triggers, too. And look at that.. even in avoiding one for 10 months, when it came around, it still sucked. But I let it suck for the moment, and shook it off.
A year ago, I was on a major countdown to my 30th birthday. Life was fine. I was fine. And a month and a half after that, a huge part of my world felt as if it were avalanching toward me.
This year there's no countdown. Only living life one day at a time. Enjoying and taking in whatever moment I'm in, and concentrating on the awesome that is in my life instead of the bullshit and bullshit ass dramatic people. No sense in counting down and wishing the days away to get to ONE day, when we've got one here already.
I hadn't been writing / talking much lately on here - and now it all spilled out. Oops. Deal. and thank you.
