Half Gifts

The Cocteau Twins are a band I listen to everyday. I was introduced to them 13 years ago by someone who had quite an effect on me. They're from Scotland and were known more in the 80's than they are now. This song is called "Half Gifts," and it's one of my absolute favorites. I resonate to it and I belong to it. It's meaning has changed to me over the years, but it still strikes me so deep. Only music has this power: "I just have to know how to be in the process of creating things in a better way And it hurts but it's a lie that I can't handle it I still have a world of me-ness to fullfill I still have a life, and it's a rich one, even with mourning Even with grief and sadness I still care about this planet I am still connected to nature And to my dreams and myself I have my friends My family I have myself I still have ME."
