“The earthquake did not help,” I
thought, nerves still frayed from the 3am 6.0 magnitude event as heat lightning pulsed above the creepy little casino
town on the Nevada-Utah border. Below the sky, fields of flickering red
lights and the words "you're headed in the wrong direction” fading in and
out of reception on the radio.
Then, a savage, Biblical rain, momentary skid-outs in
standing water, and just flat-out not being able to see. At a dive motel
in the desolate eastern part of the state, a black moth on the shower curtain and June bugs in
the bed.
AM - Piano / Grandfather Clock

"But it is possible, it is possible: the
old grief, by a great mystery of human life, gradually passes into quiet,
tender joy; instead of young, ebullient blood comes a mild, serene old age.
I bless the rising sun each day, and, as before, my heart sings to meet it but now I love even more its
setting, its long slanting rays and the soft tender gentle memories that come
with them..."
-Dostoyevsky, The Brothers
Karamazov (Father Zosima speaking)
