More Than Words

While I haven't heard the full song in a years every so often parts of it randomly play through my mind.  I love this song.  I love Extreme.  I especially love the guitar playing in this song.  (I dated a guitar player all through high school which explains my affinity for the guitar.)  Can we please just talk about how amazing Nuno Bettancourt is?  I mean c'mon.  The guy knows how to play guitar! In fact, he's so amazing I've included a clip of him playing "Flight of the Bumblebee" today as well.  :)
But about the song.  I love this because the writers of the song, Nuno and Gary Cherone (lead singer of Extreme), nailed the whole relationship thing.  It always has to be more than words.  Words mean nothing if actions don't back them up. 
I also love this song because it's "stripped down" - acoustic - and everything about it is compelling.  Vocals, lyrics, music. 
Yeah, this song is amazing no matter what year we are in! Timeless...

More Than Words

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.

Call it a Day

The literal use of this phrase hails from 1838 when the phrase originally was "call it half a day" to mean leaving work early. (source) The modern use of the phrase is to indicate ending something due to false sense of accomplishment.
