This song is from the 60s, with a bright sun-shiney vibe similar to The Beach Boys or The Beatles, and it speaks to themes of government censorship. It’s still relevant today.
Is the world still turning 'round
Or is it standing still?
Is the sun still burning down
Or has it caught a chill?
Something is covering my eyes
It's you

😃
heard a dj play this song at a club my friends and i always go to. we were trying to guess what it was because it sounded so familiar -- it turns out it was from a band we used to listen to.
listening to it brought this strange wave of nostalgia i can’t quite explain. a warm, aching kind of feeling. like everything and everyone around me is changing -- including myself. it’s that indescribable mix of remembering who you were while feeling yourself grow into someone new.

I’m not a parent and do not plan to be. Kids can wear me out fast with their high energy and noise level; it leaves me very over-stimulated. But it’s pretty extreme when people say they ”hate kids” and I often feel it’s a reflection of their childhood and beliefs around how kids “should be.” That they were expected to be quiet, obedient, and out of the way by their parents when they were little.
It’s fucking hard to be a kid. You’re dealing with a rapidly-changing body and underdeveloped brain, managed by flawed adults who are enforcing boundaries that you do not understand. It’s confusing and hard to manage your feelings and honestly just a lot.
People are impatient with kids when they‘re brand new to the world and figuring it all out, and this is a time kids need a friend the most. Children can also be teachers to adults with how they are less habituated to the world. They teach us how to be free and open-hearted and silly and imaginative.
A good practice is to be kinder and gentler with kids. If that feels difficult, start with gentleness toward your inner child. Maybe that’s the child in your life that needs your attention and kindness most.

I meant to post this yesterday. Absolutely beautiful morning for walk.
This morning is also beautiful but in a spring rain kind of way.
