Welcome to the Liquid Stunning

Tonight went ok.  I felt better hearing how my classmates struggled with our assignment too, and how none of them have started our paper which is due Thursday, either. 

I got observed in session, tongiht, and was keenly aware of my flaws, but my client said she'd missed me last week (we didn't come in on the snow day), so that's something.

..............................

The mother of one of my very best friends is...in hospital, and not doing well.  I'm like an extended part of their family and this troubles me greatly.

She's been fighting cancer for a long time, and this weekend her body seems to have given out on her.

I pray for her to recover, to keep fighting, to get well to enjoy her flowers and gardens again.

My friend, close to me as a brother, called me tonight after returning from the hospital with his father and sister, sobbing and choking. 

Breaking.

I feel so impotent to help.  I was flattered he returned my call in his hour of need.  I offered anything, but...what can I truly give?

Sad, thoughtful, and preparing myself for the best, and the worst...I needed music, tonight, so I'm turning to the angel Gabriel.

Right now, I'm listening to the "Passion" album from "The Passion of the Christ".  

Earlier it was pieces like "Darkness", "The Tower That Ate People", "Don't Leave" and "Here Comes The Flood".

I should try and sleep, but I feel like I'm keeping some sort of vigil...letting the music carry me on a voyage.

.............

Ah well, goodnight.

I love you, M.J.B.
