an interlude having nothing to do with advertising
---
have you ever had that song you were totally addicted to?
it seemed, at first, to make perfect sense in the scenario in your head?
maybe it became a positive, self-affirming theme song for awhile.
no i won't sit nice and be quiet.
[shattered - the trucks - listen on songza.]
and then curiousity gets the best of you. or things decide to be serendipitous.
either way, you come to know the undeniable truth in the song.
it's not at all what you thought it was.
this just happened for me. i tripped across this blog post yesterday.
i have no idea who the girl is. but it brought me back to perspective.
i don't care about what some folks think is over sharing.
at some points, communication, expression, is really what it is all about.
you shattered my image of love.
thank you for writing it. thank you for being brave.
my heart goes out to her and to whomever else has had this happen.
i am so sorry.
so when i bit, it was for blood.
