We Are Timeless

Forgive me readers for I have sinned.

It's been nearly two months since my last blog and during this time countless things good and bad have occured.

I have made a stronger commitment to my well being and have been considerably less symptomatic than the last time you heard from me. I have taken all my vitamins everyday for the last two months ( But I'm still off my meds but you will have to forgive me for that.) I have forsaken working any hour beyond my scheduled time and am really trying to leave work at work and not worry about it during my off hours.

I have made great efforts to experience my life while it is happening. Hence, less blogging and less Facebook interactions. I have instead made efforts to hang out with real people and I think I have made a few friends.

I indulged in frequent flier miles and visted my Mother. And I gladly spent an enormous amount of money to spend a week with family when we lost our Grandmother Judy.

So in a way, this is a blog about death. Or living life. However you choose to think about it.

Chris and I are in love with a band called The Airborne Toxic Event. They are the best band you aren't listening to. The lead singer and songwriter Mikel Jollet has had some crap happen in his life and now he writes some beautiful music about it. Like me, he has an autoimmune disease. He has also suffered having 4 family members die close together. He is pretty obsessed with living and dying you might say, having his fair share while trying to absorb the mental mind fuck that is knowing that your body is its own worst enemy. Along the way, some girls dumped him. So he gave up his career as a successful writer and started writing songs.

I get him. I do.

I'm also pretty obsessed with living my life.

I'm going to spare you all of the details but Chris and I headed to San Francisco yesterday to see The Airborne at the Warfield Theater. They were incredible as always. They played their new single Timeless of the new album (that comes out on the 30th. Buy it.) and it resonated. Mikel explained that he wrote it after having 4 members of his family die including finding his Grandmother when she passed. We had already decided to drive to Half Moon Bay in the morning to see the ocean when we checked out the video for Timeless. It takes place at the ocean. Grandma Judy loved the ocean. I love the ocean.

Sometimes, so many things in your life just some together. And a song can definitly capture memories. I think I have found the song for this period of time.

 

I present to you Timeless by The Airborne Toxic Event

We are, we are
We are timeless, timeless
Everything we have, we have,
Everything oh my god.
You are, you are,
The only thing that makes me feel like,
I can live forever, forever
With you-
