A profound lesson I've learned from all this, is that I love the music and the colours. They mean so much to me, but when others hear the melodies and see the paintings, and love them too, it makes them feel monumental.
And it is a monumental experience to know that others have travelled your journey with you, gazed upon the same moon floating out across the trees, and heard the same haunting sonata floating on the breeze.
While those people may not stay with us for our entire journey, we thank them for walking with us, for making the loneliness more bearable, for crying and laughing with us, and singing along to our favourite songs.
We thank them, those people who make the journey worth it's effort. Never let the things you want make you forget the things you have.
Thank you for listening to this song, and thank you for loving it.
Most of all, thank you for helping me sing it.
