My own personal superhero sent me this video over facebook yesterday. I absolutely adore the song and was intrigued by the video. It's simple, yet very profound. I love it.

Anyway, but it got us on the subject of loneliness and how art brings out some of our deepest emotions and still remains as beautiful as always.

With that said, my awesome big bro sent me a quote with his own little message/interpretation attached:

"It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness and of pain: of strength and freedom. The beauty of disappointment and never-satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature, and everlasting beauty of monotony." - Benjamin Britten

"It is true that music does delve into the deepest recesses of our emotions. And it is still so beautiful. How is that possible? Maybe that is why we love our families so much... The source of many of our problems in our life, and at the same time, an everlasting joy gained from contact with them. The same can be said of loneliness, how can you truly contemplate anything without being in solitude of some sort? Can you correctly order your thoughts with so many outside stimuli? While loneliness isn't something I would recommend much of, you should take advantage of those times to order your thoughts, define your life. Find yourself, so to speak. Just my take on it Sis. :)"

It made me think about things, and so I wanted to share it with you.

There is a lot of wisdom in it.
