The Unsent Letter
Dear Eddie,
I am writing you this letter, like your average maniacal fan.
Why do I think you might want to read it? I don’t know.
Sometimes you just discover a connection with someone and the desire to communicate is overwhelming. I don’t want to pester you, but you’ve connected with me. You sent your music and I listened. I felt, probably not what you did when you made it, or what other people feel when they listen to it, but good feelings of my own.
It was a public offering from you, but the only way I can find to respond is a personal one. I don’t expect anything from you, I just hope at some point in time you can read a few of my words and know that I appreciate what you’ve shared.
I love your voice and your words.
Your music.
The whole band really rocks. I’ve only been to 2 TO concerts and can testify to that. All so talented. I admire talented people. Everyone has gifts and strengths; talented people make something out of theirs.
I know you don’t need my praise. I’m writing this letter in gratitude. I want you to know how much happiness I get from listening to your music. That is a noble gift.
If I can’t admire you because your lyrics reveal who you are, then I admire you for the ideas and feelings you share with people. (Spreading goodness)
I can’t begin to describe how hard it is to restrain myself from telling you every intimate detail about my life. I don’t know why I feel compelled to make sure that you know me. I am mostly happy just to know that you are out there – wanting good things and connecting with so many people through your music.
Thanks from a fan,
Jaidra
P.S. Of course if it strikes you, feel free to respond, arrange to visit and fall madly in love with me.

is
to create....
LOVE
ART
and to strive to embrace the environment--Causes
Eddie and the band believe in.
This letter is a beautiful beginning....
but
truly it is the spirit of the luminous universe that inspires...
not the man himself (even yes a gorgeous noble and talented one)
you are ACTUALLY FALLING IN LOVE WITH THE UNIVERSE
and guess what
wow wow wow
THE UNIVERSE IS MADLY IN LOVE WITH JAIDRA
as a tiny star to your tiny star,
on behalf of the universe
i whisper
iloveyou
and have a wonderful pearlescent day !~~~~~
As for cassia's post, thanks for what I interpret as a positive and inspirational message. The love of a universe can't hurt...
congrats

Creation is good.
sometimes i wish
i lived in some poor remote village in INdia with no rAdio, so i could have never heard his voice.
Jim Carrol
why
didn't no about heaven
there would be no hell
no bad or good
no worst or better
Jim Carrol
your mind reflects
my saddness
like a prism
i wish i could change that reflection
into joy
Jim Carrol
although you are heaven im sure
you are not the heaven that teases me for which i speak.
you did it for me too
You are heaven
so far away
i'm in hell
humble guy
Jim Carrol
well my dear
since we are both in hell
and its hot down here
let's get naked and
tell each other we are
still alive
and when you enter my
world
you will feel it between my lines
and
i will know
you are
scared too.
my desires
turned into love
Jim Carrol
does love not equal desire?
love comes next
Jim Carrol
First fall was new
Now watch the summer pass
So close to you.
Too late to keep the change,
Too late to pay,
No time to stay the same
Too young to leave.
No pass out sign on the door set me thinking
Are waitresses paying the price of their winking?
While stars sit in bars and decide what their drinking,
They drop by to die 'cause it's faster than sinking.
Too late to keep the change,
Too late to pay,
No time to stay the same
Too late to keep the change,
Too late to pay,
No time to stay the same
Too young to leave.
Find out that now was the answer
To answers that you gave later
She did the things that we both did before, now,
But who forgave her.
If I could stand to see her crying
I would tell her not to care.
When she learns of all your lyin'
Will she join you there?
Country girl I think you're pretty,
Got to make you understand,
Have no lovers in the city,
Let me be your country man.
Got to make you understand.
Jim Carrol
as if.
Jim Carrol
a better way to describe it would be to say
- our oxygen levels are fogging up this nice girl's thread.
sorry
sweety
i couldn't control myself
Jim Carrol
Don't.
Why listen to a toaster Elf anyway?
Gnomes are the only little ones to be trusted and whose to complain with all the spanking that goes on in this toaster oven.
I'm new here... think i'm going to have to do some more reading to understand the history between you two, but I'm glad I created an atmosphere in my thread, where you felt comfortable enough to uh... make yourselves at home.
it's only after you've lost everything ...that you are free to do anything....(Fight Club)
... I'll ride the wave...where it takes me....
Histronics is more like it!!!
Welcome to your new home, but remember
....you'll have to get almost naked to come through this door.
thanks J

So cassia, how does a girl like me go about helping the universe?
I think I really would like to save the world.
I loved superheroes growing up. Batman & Robin, GI Joe, hell even the Ghostbusters. I wanted to be strong and brave and able to protect anyone from anything.
Why is it that I was tricked into feeling so vulnerable and weak - someone who worries that she won't even be able to protect her own family?
Sometimes I wonder how I could imagine otherwise. This world allows tremendous tragedies to go unchecked. When child soldiers cut the hands off little girls on behalf of a political leader... I want to believe that it's all hopeless... because just thinking about it hurts.
But my problem is, I'm stubborn. I can't seem to shake the adamant certainty that I can do anything I want to.
I want to do some good for the universe.
(Stoplight)
I'm pretty sure that just knowing that will make a difference.
I'm listening to a cover of Redemption Song while writing this...
beautiful.
go deep into the suffering is where i usually find the truth of my path.
