This is a fraction from the giant list we have curated. But pick one and I will give you a memory. I will give you a moment in time. I will give you an instant. All when pain gave way to laughter. When loneliness gave way to companionship. And when the stress of the day gave way to the silliness of our evenings
Sometimes they precipitate jokes and dares, nights of karaoke, or our best impressions. Sometimes they recollect memories from our past, painful or otherwise, that end up being shared and the veils our inner selves are pulled back just a touch. It would never happen otherwise, we're much too private people. And other times, they provoke a listen of a particular album from start to finish which will in turn provoke a conversation about God, faith, love, and any other such thing until 5 in the morning.
And it's become the backdrop, the soundtrack to my everyday. I'm not sure the last time it flipped to something else but it has been a very long time. It fills the space in my head when it's too loud and the room when it's too quiet.
I've never liked rollercoasters but this one suits me fine.
