"mewithoutYou"

It was always going to be written at some point, why not now.
While I wrote about "Right Away, Great Captain" I listened to his music. I presumed that would be a trend that followed, rather strangely I find myself listening to "Bat For Lashes" while I write this, that will no dout be reflected.

mewithoutYou for me is all about letting go of attatchments. Those things that weigh heavy on us, and maybe at first they brought us joy, but in the end turned sour and all the while we hold on tight in the hope of reviving what was once. mewithoutYou's message is very simple, let go of everything that isn't G-d. There's a freedom in that to enjoy the things of this earth, we're no longer tied to them, but we can enjoy them while being free of their control, but most of all we're free to walk with G-d. The bible said he who wants to gain life must first lose it, this death can be painful and difficult, but it can also shape us and set us up to be who we're meant to be. Right now I'm trying to let go of people, I seem to rely on them, and when I'm cut off from them I feel lonely. So I'm cut off, not entirely of my own choice, but I think I see what G-d's doing. I've had a sore throat the last few days and haven't been attending work or social events, the first day was ok but today has been hard, but hopefully I'll grow through it.

This isn't about mewithoutYou atall, never mind, I guess I'll write about them another time after all.
