to begin again, as everything is ever-changing and ever-evolving
Know that you cannot find happiness in material objects, but only within yourself
So be enlightened and rise again
In our process of living, we create our own universe
We live there for a while, and then move forward to the next universe that we create
This is how we continue to grow
We begin with birth, then the wandering, the learning
Then we must suffer, but gain insight
Realize our ignorance, but gain desire
Our sense of purpose is finding our soul, then experiencing karma, then rebirth
This is our cycle of existence
The Sea of Samsara
The path of life is created by you, and only you can be responsible for it

Something is happening
Things happen for a reason
Remember things happen, things
Are always happening all
But you don't always see it
You don't always see it or understand it
Remember things happen, things
Are always happening all
But you'll have to accept it

Crying to Remember
03:43

There is an important time for everything in life
And a time to recognize these things
A time to hurt, and a time to heal
A time to mourn, and a time to dance
A time for gathering, and a time for scattering
A time to live, and a time to die
For life is uncertain, and yet death is certain
Everything changes, and nothing remains
All that we can do, is to remember

End of: The Beginning
01:14

Living means starting at birth
Then life, death, and rebirth
This is known as the cycle of samsara
As it is, all living things have a spirit or soul
Our life is an endless ocean we must cross
And at times we can be cast adrift, lost
Or finding our way, lifetime after lifetime
As we face the trials and tribulations throughout our life
We are learning to grow, to be stronger
And to gain knowledge of the world we live in
When we find calm, we tend to stay at rest
Not realizing that time keeps moving forward
And our progress is halted
This ocean of life is as beautiful as it is dangerous
But we must face what we fear to overcome it
To strive for better, to continue to ascend
You can find power in humility
And patience in wandering your path
You must learn to grow like a flower from muddy waters

Music is my primary language. I have been listening to, collecting, composing, and performing music since I was around 10 years old. As a professional musician I play keyboards, acoustic & electric guitar, bass, and various other instruments. I create music for whatever mood may strike me, and whatever my hands pull from my insides. This is all the soundtrack to the inside of the back of my mind. ... more
