Therapist Reacts to The Grudge by Tool
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 тра 2024
- Therapist analyzes the lyrics of The Grudge by Tool to discuss how often when bad things happen to us and we hold a grudge they often happen because we didn't have a CHOICE. This song shows us that now we do have a choice to hold onto the grudge and face the consequences of that or let go.

That pause before the scream...
Literally was gonna comment thats my favorite part of Tool reactions is always picking the perfect but worse place to pause😂😂😂spiral out keep going
Never been blue-balled so hard.
That's a top comment right there.@@1bossdj
@@1bossdj LOL Right?
I barely ever complain about pauses, but that timing was atrocious lol.
Wings for Marie part 1 and 2. You’ll be blown away by the way Maynard expresses his hurt with the situation.
I second this
Absolutely
Especially is preceded with Judith by A Perfect Circle.
This is the one.
@@tluvolin_
Agreed!
Add in “Orestes” by APC and “Jimmy” by Tool as well!
Tool has been the consistent thread throughout my life. With each version of myself the lyrics have had many meanings.
This is how I feel about them
The greatest thing about Tool is that they have grown up with us, and us with them. As we mature (and the band members) the music has matured.
No doubt, I'm with you brother. Same here as I get older
This is the most "Tool Fan" thing a Tool Fan has ever said
@@forsain4533 hahaha checks out 😂
This whole album start to finish... ❤❤ It's ALLL therapy!
It's their best album, in my opinion.
As is 10000 days, and Fear Inoculum.
LOL
@@rogueprince1341 Aenima, Lateralus, and 10,000 Days, in my opinion, are the masterpiece trilogy.
I always said Aenima was their best album but Lateralus is literally perfect.
30+ year fan of Tool, and I have never and will never get tired of their music. Not one bad song in their entire discography. The best band of my lifetime. 4 masters of their craft. #Toolforever
❤❤❤
I second this!!!!
Tool IS musical therapy ❤❤
In the past ten years I had a life altering events that left me angry, confused, grudges against everything, and much later I realized I was even depressed. I asked no one for help, just said “be a man” and swallowed it all. Even became physically unhealthy to go along with my true lack of mental health.
Then one day it came to me. I am not angry at those things, they don’t piss me off. I allow those things to get to me.
I allow them to piss me off. Since then my outlook has changed dramatically. I am still not completely healed, but heading that direction.
Your insights into my favorite music is also helping me in that journey. Thank you for this channel. Not only do I get to hear encouragement but also get to watch someone become a fan of what I have always known as the greatest music ever to exist.
Overdue for Tool - Pushit. Album version. Toxic relationship song
That's also IMHO the centerpiece of Aenima and one of the coldest guitar licks (after the breakdown) that I've heard.
Then follow it with Pushit from Salival Live
I love the salival version. It’s so beautiful.
@@mori9060 it’s good but I think far inferior and definitely not on the first listen
Hell yeah, Pushit studio version
You hit the nail on the head Taylor!! That 25 second scream at the end really encapsulates the power of letting go of a grudge 👍
But she couldn't have paused it at a worse time, it almost knocked her out of the chair 🤣
I always hear something new when I listen to Tool, but especially whenever you break the songs down. It's really helped me understand why I listen to the music that I do and what purpose it serves for me. It's been really eye-opening for me and I can't tell you how much I appreciate it.
This song is pure poetry. Amazing opening to an album. So vastly different than previous Tool's lyrical subject matter. They came out of nowhere with a surprisingly positive and uplifting message. The previous albums, you'd be hard pressed to find songs with those themes. I think it displayed a lot of growth in Maynard. He clearly had a shift in his mental being between Aenima and Lateralus. I think it was really cool at the time to see and feel that progression.
I see a lot of “Push It” suggestions.
I have to agree!
Salival version!
Follow the instructions at the beginning of the song.
Yes!!!
I grew up in a broken home situation and TOOL is one of the only reasons im still here today. It took me many years and lots of self love and reflrction i had to learn on my own, and im still learning and growing at 38. But i just wanted to say that TOOL absolutely has changed my life and im eternally grateful for their music because of it.
Saturn's year is approximately 29.5 Earth years. In astrology, Saturn returning to where it was at the time of your birth initiates trials and change.
Maynard is a god as a lyricist. Weaving amazing thoughts and concepts into songs in extremely unique ways. Never being completely forward and always leaving you to understand it for yourself allowing you to grow personally with each song.
This is SUCH an underrated TOOL song. Like think about his grudge for a min. Something awful was done to him to bear a grudge for such a long time that it became who he was, he wore it like a crown. But finally learning to let it go, must have been liberating!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
WooHoo! The Grudge! Let it go! This song is so powerful! The world and society encourage grudges, don't believe them, it will drag you down to the "the Bottom" (Tool song). The album opened my eyes, mind and heart, it continues to help me on the path to maturity and individuation. Spiral out! 🌀🌀🌀
Very well put young sir
"Let go" I believe is what you actually wanted to say.
"Let It Go" is a song from the Disney movie _Frozen_ 😅
DO ALL OF TOOL! They're my favorite band. I'd love to hear what you think of Judith by APC. Maynard sings for them as well as Tool in case you didnt know.
I love Tool. However I would be wary about this becoming a Tool channel.
@Fl4ppers I didn't mean for her to stop doing other bands, but maybe do like Tool Tuesday or something like that.
Wings for Mary Part 2 10,00 Days would love to hear your take on it. Tool videos are the best
You gotta do the whole thing at least. Can't have part 2 without part 1, come on
This one hits my heart every time.. part one and 2
Start with Jimmy, then Judith by "A Perfect Circle", then Wings parts 1 and 2. It's interesting to see Maynard's whole journey and the evolution of his position and feelings.
I have struggled from a hyper-abusive childhood and into a journey of growth to ensure the cycles are broken and my children never suffer this way but the weight of that responsibility is crushing and often times the only thing I can tell myself is that my 8 year old needs and deserves me around to be the same father for her that my 28 year old daughter had. Please review Citizen Soldier's Strong For Somebody Else. It is my anthem atm and I believe it can help so many others who struggle for a reason. Ty.
Man, this song hits different. I hope you find peace, brother.
There something about this song that chokes me up every time I hear it.
One of the best long screams ever
Everything Maynard is involved in is pure genius! Tool is my all time favorite band. 46&2 has my whole soul in a headlock
Thank you so much for your insight on that. Really helps me with the crown I wear. Appreciate you
So loved your reaction to this song - this is my favorite song by Tool and one of my favorite ones ever. This is also why I love heavy music so much - it is therapeutic to rock out like this.
This was awesome. This album has a ton of occultism behind it fyi. Aleister Crowley stuff etc. I believe Saturn ascends/returns pertains to the 28/29 yr orbit of Saturn, and how at ages 28/29, 56/57, etc your life comes to some kind of a turning point and you need to choose. 1 or 10 pertains to the 10 sephiroth of Kabbalah. Turning lead to gold also pertains to alchemy and spiritual transmutation, Freemason stuff. Or something like that. PLEASE DO PUSHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
👆👍
Alchemy is a very common theme in their music, and I love it!
Someone who did the thumbnail got it
One of my favorite Tool songs. The lyrics and meaning. Simply incredible. Danny’s steady drumming build up the entire time up to the incredible breakdown and I mean that scream at the end… Please continue the 🌀
🛠️T⚙️⚙️L🛠️ makes All of Us Better Human Beings 🙏 Another Awesome Reaction and Advice 👊
Most people listen to the grudge: Da fuq is Scarlett whatever he just said.
This young lady: right off the bat that was my favorite book growing up! Levels people. Levels
This album, specifically this song, saved me as a teenager. I was mentally going down a dark path, thinking everything and everyone was against meme, blah blah teenager stuff. Then this album came out. I didn't fully understand it at the time, but slowly I absorbed what it was saying and I let go of the hatred that was brewing in my heart.
Watching you for a while now and love your perspective. Tool is very deep and only for certain people that can truly see it.
This is one of their best songs!
Keep doin your thing! We love it!!!!
You did one of the most requested from Tool
Next stop: doing one of the most requested (if not the most requested) from A Perfect Circle (one of Maynard's other projects) - The Outsider, which talks about suicide and how people perceive suicide
She can't skip over Puscifer, though!
If may not be serious like Tool and APC, but some of those songs are still fairly profound... At least in my opinion! The song _UPGrade_ from "Existential Reckoning" I feel speaks deeply to our current always-online lifestyle, and where we're headed as a society. 😊
@@DUKE_of_RAMBLEwatched them live last summer in Portugal. Sad it was only a 45min set, but it was extremely good
@@S2condHeartbeat Nice!
really what I like about that song is it's got meanings all depending on how you want to see it.
I see it that way, but I also recognize it as the drama queen not getting their way- someone who wants what they want, and when they don't get it they cry about life being horrible to them, how they want to end it all, etc. I have met both people in this strange world and I love that song for both kinds of personalities. the line that carries it for me is the end. both very sad in one way, but the other way is basically saying "well then if you're gonna stop using people as tools, bye. just stay away from me!"
and we don't need to fight over meanings BTW just in case a war starts on this.
Great reaction. Tool's music has always been a bright spot for me when I'm feeling down.
Wings for Marie part 2 10000 days would be my next request. It's a good song for dealing with grief and loss.
speaking of 'exorcise those demons'.... may is suggest Fear Inoculum
but also H. and Reflection and the rest of their discography
Hard to suggest a song when they're all so damn good, hun? 😅
Fear Inoculum great song
It’s a bit on the nose, but I was also thinking that she would do a great job with Fear Inoculum. I was pleased to have heard the “recast my tale” line in a different light (i. e. moving forward 🤯) today after watching her other videos last night.
I have a very old grudge that I'm not ready to let go of as much as I want to. Every now and then it bubbles out and hurts before I get it back under control and get on with life. I think I hold it so tight because there is no catharsis in real life. In art it builds towards this relief. Life doesn't always give you the grand final act where everything comes to a neat emotional close. Sometimes someone hurts you and all there is are apologies and to move on...
Also for the longest time it gave me a reason *NOT* to do the hard work and improve myself. That didn't help either
Im sure it wont be easy, but good luck!
thank you so much for offering this analysis of tool. please do more
You helped me comprehend TOOL deeper than ever before… for real. You are a very sharp girl. Articulate and observant. I’m subbed after watching 3 of your TOOL videos. Also, your message at the end is very moving. To those of you hesitant to ask for help, just ask. It’s worth it. I asked a friend for help recently after being in deep, and it provided the sense of normalcy I needed to think clearly about what to try next. Please, don’t wait to ask anymore. Your life is waiting, but not forever.
Holy crap, this was the best reaction to a song I've ever heard. Instant subscriber!
Thank you, this is extremely AWESOME!! I personally held a grudge for the past 15 years. But, with the CORRECT Therapy, a good set of head phones, and the TOOL CD catalog. I like you just said,"listen to these tracks, with a whole new perspective.
Love your videos! Keep them coming!
I was waiting for this one.
You are a breath of fresh air. Thank you!!
Really need to react to Tool's "Pushit."
Definitely
Studio version!
@@adampindell yes, definitely studio version!
You always make me feel better, thank you for doing this.
Lateralus is not only one of the best albums ever written (imo) but the title track is one of the most complicated songs ever written (imo again). People think that the references (not trying to spoil too much) only follow the syllables in Lateralus, but it goes SO MUCH DEEPER.
I think you’re fibbing.
Every song of Tool is a deeper meaning, that's what makes them such a powerful experience to absorb
@@redreaper0013 I know. “Fibbing” was a veiled reference to what the poster was getting at.
I have a grudge aimed at myself. My dad passed 3 years ago do to covid complications. He Suffered for 9 months. I've excepted his death but I hold those anger toward myself. I was there everyday and dealt with alot of his doctors and medical needs but there's something inside that always feels like I didn't do enough. There's always the what ifs in my head. What if I did this what if I did that. And if I had done more would he still be here... I know I did alot but seems like it wasn't enough. I didn't have time to mourn the way I should have. I had a funeral to plan, a mother that lost her husband and a pregnant wife..eventually it just turned into self hate for what I could have done. Even though i still struggle with it, tool has definitely helped me think differently over the years.
Sounds to me like you did an incredible amount of supporting through a very difficult time and I'm sure your father is very proud of everything you did.
From Lyss: @omardominguez8722 Hello there!
First off I just want to say thank you for being open with us here, we appreciate it and don’t take it for granted.
I have gotten to know loss very well, but not in this relationship. I cannot begin to understand how difficult it must be to lose a parent, in this way as well.
With loss, I believe a lot of people have guilt… wishing they said more, did more… but please know, you did all you could, and that is all that can be asked of you. There is nothing more that you could have done to save your father, especially with illness. I know this is hard to accept, but I promise you it is the truth. I felt a lot of guilt for not spending more time with the people I have lost, or being more myself with them. But I have to remind myself I did what I could at the time, and that is all that can be asked of me, and i have to learn to accept that, even though it is hard.
I try to remind myself that these people I have lost are still with me, even if not on the plains of earth, they are with me in spirit. I am not religious, but it does give me some solace to know that they are with me in some way.
When I lost my grandparents on my moms side and fathers, my mom was the main one to take care of everything… I cannot even begin to think how hard that must be. I saw her struggles, I saw her pain and emotions. It has got to be so hard, and I just want you to know you are not alone in what you have gone through.
Friend, it was enough. You did enough. You did it all right. Please know that. While dealing with this loss, you took care of your grieving mother, and pregnant wife… man, that is a lot, don’t downplay that friend, you did everything you could, and that is amazing.
I deal with self hate as well, but from what I see of you here… you are so strong, and amazing. You are so caring. You are an amazing human. You inspire me to keep going, with what I have been through. I believe you will inspire many more as well.
I am glad that you have music as a kind of release, as a way to feel understood, and less alone.
Thank you for sharing your life here with us… sharing what you have been through and how you feel really makes people feel less alone. I may share your experience with my mother at some time, to help her feel less alone as well.
I want to leave you with this reminder:
You did what you could with what you had, and that is enough. You did amazing. You did all you could do. Your family has gotta be so grateful for you.
Take it slow friend, please know we are always here for you, to listen, to be a shoulder to lean on.
Sending love,
Lys
I love your insight, and it's why this this band is so important to me. You dance to them a bit like I do haha, because the time signatures produce sort of a technical reaction in the body. To me, Lateralus was their prime, but they had different peaks through their evolution.
This is awesome!! I love experiencing Tool all over again through someone else's eyes. Great breakdown of the song too!!
Yes!!!! I am soooo excited by this one. I love this message so much
Amazing! Loved the whole talk about choices. And this songs always helps a ton
The anger and resentment from hold a grudge (like a crown) is like poison to your mind. However "forgive and forget" is not fully accurate. Forgiveness can be good for your soul, but do not forget the lessons learned. As it says "transmute" it in to wisdom and leave the hate and pain behind.
This was a good reaction for sure, you are so cool and we love your words 👍✨ I have been listening to this song since it came out, and its still rockin !
Love your passion, insight, empathy, wisdom and intensity. Keep Spiraling Out...
Great song and great job breaking it down. Thank you 🙏
Hello, I have always been a fan of Tool and I really like their music and this song always appears when I need it most, thank you very much for giving me encouragement I really needed it at this moment
What a reaction! Love it. I've recently been fuxked over by my employer, not bad financially but more in a "where am i going in life" kinda way and just listening to Tool makes me feel better, center myself and have confidence for the inevitable bullshit meetings coming over my horizon the next couple weeks :)
Very well-thought analysis!
Taylor! Awesome Tool breakdown again! Please do more Tool! "Jimmy" and "H." I would love to hear your analysis of both oth those songs!
Jimmy is my second favorite from that album! Soooo good!!
as a male genx'er, showing emotion was usually met with a beating. having suffered from S*icid@l ideation from about 12 onward i can truly say that Tool has given me validation. and that validation is largely responsible for me making it into my 20's. Well into my 40's at this point I often find myself seeking out Tool therapy when im low and they never fail to remind me that it's ok to be down, take a step back, reassess the situation and come out of that sh!t like a phoenix....it's my choice
Love you got to this!!! Lateralus is next from Tool, is a vibe and a journey!!
Tool is amazing. I'd say it is pretty hard challenge to find a group with more meaningful and well thought out lyrics than Tool.
There is one group who is in the same genre, and they have their 40th anniversary this year; yes of course it is Dream Theater. Two of my absolute favorite songs are "The test that stumps them all" and "Octavarium".
I would also like to recommend some symphonic metal, so some Nightwish songs like 10th man down and Dead boys poem, Epica is amazing as well as After Forever.
Thank you for this. One of my fav Tool songs, and whenever I revisit it is so therapeutic. We all have grudges; let it go.
@HeartSupport - Music to Improve Your Mindset - I recommend one of Tool's deepest and most personal tracks ''Wings for Marie 1 and 2'' where he deals with the death of his mother after a long illness, a mix of anger first and then resignation... it's very emotional.
Recently I’ve had a year of both Heaven and Hell. Soaring highs and crippling lows. It took a while, but I found my footing and clawed my way back to my form of mental entropy. During that long night I found peace in knowing.
When you see both sides of the pain, you gain power and control over it.
Love the tool reactions
So cool ! Nice to see you 🤩great content 😎 take care✨
The first reaction where I didn't have to explain the return of Saturn, I love it! When Saturn first returned for me (I was in late my 20s) I had to let go of a lot of anger connected to my distant past and I became a very different person than what I knew. I still remember listening to this in the shower, trying to let things go as the water washed over me when I had my epiphany. Before that day I felt like a child trapped in a adult's body. Nowadays, I can't even remember what I was so angry at for those 20 something years. Thank you so much for this channel. It is so much more than just music reaction and I tell all my friends about it. Much love. 🤗
My fav Tool song. When I started feeling better with my depression after many attempts at self harm (specifically cutting and my one suicide attempt) I actually started to miss my depression. It had become such a part of my being, I didn’t know how to exist without feeling shitty.
Did experience Tool on a shroom trip where it lifted my narrow mind for the first time. Listening to them since then, bringing tears in my eyes regularly. I was not offered a lot of choices in my life, and I feel that I hold onto something very strictly, cold and sad. Thank you for your explanation, I will reflect them.
I just found your channel today and have watched so many of your videos already. Your insight into a lot of song mean so much to a genre and style of both music and mental health that isn’t talked about enough. I would definitely suggest looking into some early blue October songs for the pain he’s has in his words and voice. Songs like razorblade, hate me, and dirt room. On the other side, fear is one of his greatest songs to me personally about healing
SO glad she's a TOOL fan!!
I’ve Always like TOOL, they Always have a Story to tell! I talked to my therapist about it. Also, the music I mean. Someday it’s all I listen to plus some songs from A Perfect Circle. I can relate to so many of them! Some days I feel like I’m healed, most days no! I just have this dark side that won’t let go!
Never a point in holding onto anger and hate, just a burden. Just let it go and move forward.
I just started following you and love the channel! Watched the SOAD playlist and think you would love to break down their some lonely day.
I love watching people react and interpret tools music. Ive known this song for over 20 years now, and never considered that maynard was making the song itself a saturn point. The song itself is the driving force to make the choice. Wonderful interpretation and ill hear this song in a new light now ♥️
Precious to behold...lol. nice reaction Heart. Slainte ☘️ 🇺🇲
There are 2 songs that I listen to when I'm in pain...I'm going through therapy myself and music is the only thing to describe the feeling. I am new to this channel, yet the couple videos I've seen, I feel like you explain things better than anyone I've ever heard describe a song. The two I have here I ask for a reaction video. I know it is much to ask and I don't expect it to happen. But it is worth the shot.
All The Weight
The Promise
both songs are by As The Structure Falls
I like how Tool poses experiences and internal dilemmas in front of you, then lets it cook. I'm still not convinced that Maynard beat the Grudge within the song. Maybe by the Lateralus track.
@heartsupport so thankful i found this channel. 46&2 was the 1st vid i watched. Which really hit home, recently relived a truma from 3+ decades ago. Been in therapy for a few months now and my first big step in taking back my life was a concert @ the ryman (devo). Took huge steps towards recovery. I donated to your fundraiser. Corrosion of conformity's albatross is a song i would like to see a reaction from.
I've listened to this song for almost 2 decades and have used it's wisdom to help me with letting go of many grudges since I first listened to it. Recently I had a conflict with a coworker that has led him be essentially fired because he chooses to hold a grudge against me and not apologize for basically assaulting me (nothing that crazy, he got up in my face and started screaming at me and then shoved me.) I wish I could show him this song to help him, honestly. He's unemployed now so he's only hurting himself by holding on to this.
3 libras by a perfect circle
I love how the message (really in every tool song) is always mirrored in the motifs of the music.
The song clearly wants to change, to evolve, to move beyond the simple motif from the beginning, but everytime it gets traction within the music, it is held back by "The Grudge".
Until that can be exorcised from the song, it can't progress to it's ultimate peak right at the end. Which could be a message in itself, the longer you hold on, the less of a payoff in your life will be available. If you wait too long you only get a short time to be the "best version" of yourself.
LET GO!
I absolutely love your channel, I absolutely love Tool and I absolutely love you !!! You're beautiful and have a lovely smile, a great personality, and have killer facial expressions . 😀❤️🤘
I have been eagerly awaiting you to analyse and enjoy this song. This song is a therapy session in music.
Choice is the ONLY power we have, it is our MAGICK in this realm. When you give it away, understand that is a powerful gift. When it is taken from you it is an immeasurable loss. It iis a great evil to wantonly take it from others.
A couple of years ago I cut some friends out of my life that I'd had for the largest part of it. Not only when comparing the ratio of my life before and after we became friends, but also in the actual amount of time I dedicated to them. A few months before I cut contact, I came to realize they were slowly but surely weighing me down more and more, and I was becoming a worse person because of it. The split was ugly and there was a lot of anger and vitriol. I actually didn't intend for it to go that way. I just wanted to talk things over and hopefully turn over a new leaf. But in their eyes, I attacked and betrayed them.
For a long time afterwards, I felt angry and frustrated. At them for how they treated me, how they influenced my life, how they tried to put the blame on me for all my frustrations and, to top it off, how they tried to guilt trip me into the idea that me bringing up my grievances caused them to have a worse time for it. My other friends and family have heard me vent my frustrations over this in the two years following that rift. Seen me wear that crown of negativity, as the song goes.
I hoped talking about it would release some of the pressure, but it didn't. Every time, I just felt the same level of frustration.
One night I was just listening to some of my music on shuffle, and this song came by. For some reason I decided to actually take a good listen to it instead of having it on in the background as usual.
Everything came out of me. All the grudges, the loss, grief, frustration and pent-up anger. I deeply understood every line Maynard sang as it came by, and when he screamed, internally I screamed with him. When the song was over, I was completely drained and exhausted, so I went to bed. I slept wonderfully, and when I awoke, I felt more refreshed than I had in some years. Since then, I've been able to give it a place and have come to peace with the past.
I don't intend to see or speak to those people ever again, but the negative feelings are gone. Even now, writing this all down, I remember everything, but I feel a serene calmness about it. The past is the past, I have moved on.
epic song analysis!!!
Best Tool song ever made.
Maynard’s book has a bit in it about him and his friend taking stones and throwing them into the water putting failed relationships and such to those stones. “Let the waters kiss”. Like when the water blasts apart from the stone but comes back together with a kiss as it takes it down….maybe.
I have walked a long way already, looking into me for issues of anger, rage even, avoidance, distancing... and I do have an even longer way to go. This specific song, The Grudge, although I've been loving it since it came out, has a profound effect on me during the last years: @heartsupport this song, especially the climax part were the "let go" chant goes from whisper to scream, brings me close to tears, every-single-time I hear it. Cheers.
I cut my mother out of my life some years ago. One day shortly afterward I was listening to this song and its meaning developed into a different theme for me at that moment. My siblings and I were all processing the issues with our mother a little differently to one another. The line “wear the grudge like a crown” really resonated with me because I was struggling with wanting to prove how right I was in cutting my mom out. I really wanted to show everyone that it was correct and this is why. I found myself thinking about it so much and going through conversations I would have with family members if they approached me about it. I realized I was bordering on wearing my grudge like a crown, carrying it around like some sort of trophy. And though I didn’t act on those feelings of pride and approval-seeking very much, I did still have them. This song was pivotal in my ability to drop the grudge and move on in my life peacefully. It so perfectly illustrated the manifestation of carrying a grudge. I’m glad to say I let go of the grudge and the anger and the pride surrounding the situation and I live with complete peace with my decision and every time I hear this song it reminds me of how far I have come 🖤
Lateralus as a whole is therapy.
One of the best Metal albums ever made.
The production is perfection, and the messages are golden.
Let it go.
Judith, Tommy and Wings for Marie. Also Dead Boys Poem by Nightwish live in Buenos Aires.
The cycles of destruction and creation that allow us to transend these mortal coils. Transmutation of the human soul.
I once met an old lady in a supermarket. We started talking and after only a few minutes she talked about a man who had ruined her family. This topic gnawed so constantly and so deeply at her mind that that she even confided in me, a complete stranger. And I was so sorry for her. I've experienced a lot of pain in my life, too, but I chose forgiveness. I did not forget, nor do the people who hurt me still have a place in my life, but I forgave them. I did this so that the grudge wouldn't weigh me down, so that I could be free, be myself.
I told the lady that forgiveness could help her let go of the rock on her heart that made her life so painful, but sadly I couldn't reach her.
She left shouting hurtful blasphemies in my direction, but I was only sad for her.
The thing is, all that she told me had taken place over 40 years ago. The man who had hurt her had been dead for a long time, yet she was still torturing herself every day. She had wasted not just years, but decades, being in pain. For more than four decades, she allowed her anger and resentment to fester, consuming her every day. It was heartbreaking to see how a single event from so long ago had stolen so much of her life's joy, leaving her trapped in a prison of her own making.
One of Tool's greatest ideas was how they mixed their music. They treated the vocals as just another instrument, no more or less important. So, it was mixed in with everything else. That's part of the reason the music sounds so big.
Taylor palmbry is so inspiring and motivational and I love her taste in music she is very good at turning any song into a positive way to apply it to help yourself with your own mental and emotional health issues. I love watching her reaction to videos she is so beautiful and has such a good personality I love her input it is very helpful to me and this is coming from a recovering drug addict and bipolar, and severely depressed person that is suffering with suicidal thoughts thanks so much Taylor palmbry you have been a real help to me without even realizing it
