lux arumque



college is hard.

crazy deadlines, graveyard shifts, and people at home begging me to come visit. (i will say, i am VERY excited to visit some friends this weekend).

among all the piles of homework, papers on tchaikovsky, pitch comparission, scale memorization, chord progressions, practice rooms, piano keys, and protocol - there is something that keeps me going.

what is it?

why do i keep going? what force drives me to wake up every morning and take on college?

is it God? the Holy Spirit? music? love? optimism?

i do not think it is one thing. i do not think it is a hundred things.

i believe it is the absolute soul and compassion of the waking heart that fuels your dreams. without the dreaming image - the foggy, narrow pathway - you cannot look for a light.

light. that is why i move on.
