i.o.u.

You’ve always kept your part of the bargain. You’ve proven time and time again that you always had my back. But sometimes, somehow, doing what you are supposed to do wasn’t enough for me. It’s unfair, I know, and it’s me that’s the problem. I let my insecurities get the best of me. No, you didn’t do anything wrong – I just purposely look away when you do things right. I leave the equations unbalanced and then rub it to your face. And I am sorry.

In time I will learn how to fix this flaw. I just hope that my realization isn’t too late.

Until that time arrives, I will owe you.

the space between mediocrity and perfection

Dave Matthews is a god.

It’s amazing how his songs can change my mood in a snap of a finger (or a click of a mouse button.) I liked Crash Into Me the first time I heard it back in 1997 and I still love it now. This is one of the few timeless songs that will not ever leave my playlist. However, of all their songs (and all other songs perhaps), The Space Between is my favorite. If Crash Into Me is as good as how I make it sound to be, this one surpasses that tenfold. It has gotten me out of several downs and it never fails to instill hope in me each time I listen to it.

Thank God for good timeless music – and video, of course. Their music video for The Space Between, in my opinion, is still one of the best out there.

I wonder how it feels like to be him; having people rave about how good and inspiring his craft is.

“The Space Between
What's wrong and right
Is where you'll find me hiding, waiting for you
The Space Between
Your heart and mine
Is the space we'll fill with time”
