"With eyes closed is the best way to look at the soul"

I am struggling to write anything down. I have been sitting in front of this keyboard for over an hour now. I want to get something down, I do, but the words don't form themselves.

I am thinking about who I am, really. For whatever reason I keep myself an enigma to people. I guess I am an enigma to myself in many ways too because I find it hard to figure out my emotions. Most of my feelings come out not in the words I say, but in the music I listen to. Only then does it seem that the energy called my emotions begin to flow. I guess that's why they call it an outlet.

I have really been roaming around my music playlists this last week. Flighty, that's the word. I have two songs that I want to share. They are both beautiful and I have to close my eyes while listening.

First, Band of Horses - Detlef Schrempt. It has melodic vocals and layered guitar that is just great. Here are some links so you can enjoy it too.

The other song is from one of my new favorite bands. The name of the band is Bon Iver which in French is Good Winter. Apparently that is a common greeting there in the land of smelly cheese and unshaven legs. The song is along the same lines as the last. The video I thought was interesting too. Sit back and enjoy. (Warning: it does have a curse word in it)

Bon Iver – Holocene
