My Musical Journey of 2024. Content Warning.
In January, I listened to a lot of sea shanty style music or Irish jig music. I needed the upbeat tunes to help me stay present for my children as I was fighting an upward battle with feeling like I could never make it out of my life's circumstances whole.

L(ov/if)e Story
[A combination of “Letters of Gratitude” and “The Sountrack of Your Year” challenges] . . My love, We are reaching the end of this first year, 2024, with no interruption of you in my mind and I want to thank you for your constant presence in my nomad life. I want to give you something that would remain in our minds no matter the passing-by of years to come. Since I know you love music as much as I do, this letter will be a humble musical depiction of what my world looked like/felt like throughout the year. I want you to see how, even when you were not physically there at times, you were always there with me.

Reminiscing before the New Year
I stopped making or writing New Year's Resolutions in 2016. I had quit smoking on my own that year, then after about 2 months I fell off the wagon. I decided that year I wasn't going to fool myself anymore. I have a new tradition. Right after Christmas, I like to think back on the year and think ahead about the new year, and compare the lessons learned and goals still available for achievement. Thinking about a soundtrack of songs that represents the themes or moods of the past year is a great idea, so looking back at 2024 here is a month by month playback.

The Ephemera of Experience
I got to see Lämning again three weeks ago! I know Ren faire season is over in this part of the country, but the local one decided to open up for three weekends to do a Yuletide faire. The last weekend just wrapped up, and it was cold. Luckily they were inside, and there were heaters chugging away.

Folk, Love and Hope. Top Story - December 2024.
The soundtrack of my year started off with the song Alaska by Caiola , an indie-folk singer. I had a new relationship starting to grow, but my fear of commitment to something more was creeping in. One of the lyrics is about resisting the urge to add another affirmation to the list on his lover's wall. Because that meant adding to their life and he asks if they were leaving or just coming home. I resonated with that greatly since I was always asking myself if I was coming or going. Whether I was going to finally stay this time, and had I found my home. He sings about being terrified to let the relationship mature, and wonders if they even should. That became a reoccurring line in my life, and in everything I did. I used to tell myself I was doing the right thing by leaving by hoping to spare them the pain of staying. I wondered if I was worthy of adding another line to their life. Always afraid that I might want to stay for once so I resisted.
