thoughts.

When I go for a drive, I like to pull out to the side of the road, turn out the lights, get out, and look up at the sky. And I do this to remind me that I’m really really tiny in the grand scheme of things, and sometimes this terrifies me. But it’s only really scary ’cause it makes me feel surreal in a way I never thought I’d be ’cause I’ve never been so grounded and so humbled and so one with everything.

I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything.

Rock and roll is fun, but if you ever hear someone say you are huge, look at the moon, look at the stars, look at the sun, look at the ocean, and the desert, and the mountains, and the sky. Say “I am just a speck of dust inside a giant’s eye.”

When I saw Jean-Vive I really liked it, what she said, about the giants and the lemmings on the cliff. She said, “I like giants. Especially girl giants. ‘Cause all girls feel too big sometimes, regardless of their size.”

When I go for a dive, I like to pull off to the side and run and jump into the ocean in my clothes. I’m smaller than a poppy seed inside a great big bowl. And the ocean is a giant that can swallow me whole. So I swim for all salvation, and I swim to save my soul. But my soul is just a whisper trapped inside a tornado, so I flip on my back and I float and I sing, “I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything. I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything.”

So I talked to Jean-Vieve and almost cried when she said that the giant on the clif wished that she were dead. And the lemmings on the cliff wished that they were dead.

So the giant told the lemmings why they oughta live instead. When she thought up all those reasons that they oughta live instead, it made her reconsider all the sad thoughts in her head.

So thank you, Jean-Vieve ’cause you take what is in your head and you make things that are so beautiful and share them with your friends. We all become important when we realize our goal shouldbe to figure out our roll with inthe context of the whole.

And yeah, rock and roll is fun but if you ever hear someone say you are huge, look at the moon, look at the stars, look at the sun, look at the ocean and the desert, and the mountains, and the sky. Say, “I am just a speck of dust inside a giant’s eye. I am just a speck of dust inside a giant’s eye.”

And I don’t wanna make her cry. ‘Cause I like giants.
