Across the Universe is a cosmically mystic, beguiling, stream of semi-consciousness, with Lennon at his philosophical, poetic best. Nothing could be further removed from the unthinking Mop Top Pop of She Loves You. The song is a highly introspective spiritual rendering, utilizing abstract imagery, lush orchestration, and an angelic choir.

Across The Universe
Words that float across time and space, into my ear, my mind, and my life, inviting, inciting, and beguiling me. Sounds of angels and heavenly violins, the voice of a god expunging sins, blessing and expressing me. Rivers of sorrow, oceans of joy reflecting a million suns, across the universe.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Countdown to Pearl Harbor: The Twelve Days To The Attack
Countdown to Pearl Harbor: The Twelve Days To The Attack by Steve Twomey I really wasn’t expecting much of this read; I grabbed it while I was at Pearl Harbor because how could I not get a book while I was there?
