Family Reunion

A family reunion tonight. Very excited. It is quite amazing when resonating souls meet again.

Oh, and by family, I mean fellow journeyers.

Musik

I was listening a track a while back, just on headphones while laying in bed. It was track by Susumu Yokota, which had no lyrics in it. I got completely lost in the present-ness of the track and the nature of music when my mind drifted off and started to wonder what it was about music that just goes through us, calms and sooths us, angers us and makes us feel anxious. Something in the psychicial ooze of our being, or perhaps something deeper yet?

The track made me feel intensly calm and connected and I thought, is it me or the patterns of firing neurons that were enjoying the harmonic coding of the music? Is there something deeper than what we like to call ourselves, something bigger and unnamable as whatever it is, it is something that can't be named or pointed to by language. An (the) experience without an experiencer?

The clock has just started counting.

I just resigned, and I now have dates. My last day here at work will be the 21st of January, and my last day in the country will be February the 5th. Less than three before I walk out of this life...
