007: 'Pile of Problems' Lyrics

 I've got some problems, I'm sure you do too, mine are worse than yours, that much is true for sure, in all that I do for sure, I will work through for sure, all of these problems.  But if  I could trade away all of my shades of gray for somebody else's little life issues, that would not be a misuse of company money.  But once I had all these new issues, I might miss the old ones I'm used to...

Throw your problems in a pile with everyone's, you don't know, you might put up a fight to get yours back.

I've got more problems than an elephant at sea, your problems let you float, my problems make me sink.  My only problem with your problems is that they seem so easy.  What's your problem with my problem with your problems?  You say your's are hard to see, like an iceberg with such mass lurking below.  Sometimes you've gotta hold on tight... and let go.

Throw your problems in a pile with everyone's, you don't know, you might put up a fight to get yours back.

Look at the pile at first and your contribution will seem like the worst, with no solution.  Look at the pile more closely and you'll start to notice, other people's core problems will come into focus!

Throw your problems in a pile with everyone's, you don't know, you might put up a fight to get yours back.

Alarm clocks just keep ringing.

As I continue to brainstorm and dream about what my next steps might look like in the creative department, perhaps I will just write some of these blogs occasionally to try to keep the rust at bay.  (Could I do three a week? Or is that too ambitious?) They still lack the marketing which my podcast lacks, but they are much easier to write and edit, and they can serve the same purpose of getting the songs out there. -------- Recently I have been listening back through all of my podcasts, and I think I have succeeded at making a bingeable thing, the episodes flow nicely, although you do get tired of me telling you all of the ways to support the show at the end of each episode. -------- One episode really stood out to me recently. It's the episode featuring my alarm clock song and ringtone song. They are both awesome!  It is episode 72 of Hold That Note on your favorite podcast app (please subscribe in case I ever do restart the show) ...or just listen to it here:  https://yo...

Assurance of Salvation and Avalon

I've had a hard summer but in many ways it has also been full of joy. I got a puppy... she is amazing. Right now she is napping, so I have time to write.   Having experienced another episode of the ultimate high, a manic episode leading to a week in the psych ward, and having experienced erratic highs and lows in the months following that hospitalization, I have come to see that everything in life is temporal, and our attitudes about our life situations are much more important than the situations themselves. I have recommitted to team Jesus, and along with that, changed my personal name. If you know me personally, you'll know that already. -----------------------------  I find that life is a lot like a giant game of 'Avalon The Resistance' (go ahead and buy it if you enjoy this post).  In Avalon you are given a secret identity. The Red Team knows who else is on the Red Team, but the Blue Team is in the dark as to everyone's identities.  The Red Team tries to con...

Fair Weather Lifer

I find it's easy to fall into an existence where one only wants to do the easy things. We are all like water droplets meandering down the window panes of life, choosing a left here and a right there for no apparent reason to the human eye, but to the eye of the water droplet each decision of which way to go is obvious. Since we are humans though, not actual water droplets, sometimes our decisions seem loaded and important. If you ask me, they aren't. Each one we come to, we end up doing exactly what we were destined to do. Perhaps this is predestination talk, but it's an interesting thought process. Have you ever seen the Mario minigame where they drop a little treasure chest into the mouth of one of three intertwining pipes, and it winds its way down through the mass of pipes and comes out at the bottom into the expecting hands of either Mario, Luigi, or (God forbid ) Bowser?  What makes this game fun is that the mess of pipes which the treasure chest goes through is publi...
