rant that no one asked for!!!

“no plan” from “wasteland, baby!” by hozier is SO GOOD. that shit changed my life like-

nihilism has been a top trend among my generation(gen z), and honestly it’s no shock. we were born into a burning world(both literally and figuratively!!) where trying to pursue our dreams means giving up EVERYTHING. money, time, relationships, living life. of course, this isn’t to say previous generations didn’t have to make sacrifices, it’s that gen z basically has to choose between following their dreams and being able to survive.

and then there’s the end of the universe, which will likely be a heat death. where the universe will have reached its maximum state of entropy and all hot things(or things with more energy) move to colder places(or places with less energy). and then, everything will be dark again; a parallel to how our universe was born.

and hozier illiterates both of these ideas of nihilism and the death of the universe beautifully, saying “everything will end anyways, and we’re so lucky to be here right now, so who cares?” for me, it’s an oddly hopeful thing, knowing that i will not be remembered at the end of the universe, so why care? as hozier says “there will be darkness again.”

and of course, he has amazing political/religious commentary. a few lines(i.e., “there’s no kingdom to come;” “there’s no hands on the reigns”) make direct jabs at religion- mostly christianity as we se sin other hozier songs like “take me to church” but that’s for another day!!

in all, this is one of the most underrated hozier songs and that is a CRIME. so listen to it right now, listen to the lyrics and just vibe man.

Got a new guitar today!! First time using a steel string, I think it sounds lovely!

Song - "Like Real People Do" by Hozier (go listen to the real thing if you haven't!!)

Music is one of the things which I completely lose myself in. It's like meditating. The feel of the vibrations against my body is the best part. Makes me feel alive :)

It hurts finding out again and again that you're not special to someone at all, especially if that someone is your favorite person.

You are not your body. Your body is a part of you, like your family, your friends, your gender, trauma, religion and so much more. Your body is the vehicle with which you go through life. Accept that it's not perfect, and while you can do things to change it, it will never be, and the pursuit of perfection will never find true happiness. Find people who see you for more than your body; who see you for who you truly are, your unfiltered energy. Be satisfied with what you have, and know that you are in control of who you are. Your body is just a part of you, and treat it kindly as you would anyone else. Don't hate it, maybe don't love it, but accept that it is yours and it does not define you.
