" Much of our experience in this life is defined by some degree of suffering. Because of this sometimes to love someone well means simply sitting with them in their suffering. Entering into that suffering with them, without offering hollow aphorisms, minimization, easy fixes... This is true in the big things, as well as the seemingly small. Whether someone didn't get the job they were hoping for, or whether they just found out they have 3 months to live. Our love is truly shown, as we weep with those who weep. "
My wife and I went through a cancer scare this week and this was a personal help this week for me. It was played at our wedding recently and took on a whole new meaning recently. This man spoke to be in my teenage years and now. I am thankful for the progression that followed me all of these years later.
Caleb Astle Agreed. Even when I was a stupid teenager and had no clue what he was singing about then... he was just a great artist. 15 years later and understanding all he's singing about and his lyrics since that beginning, he's the only one I've truly appreciated and grown with in time... he's the only artist I've stuck with.
***** we are of the few who can actually say that we are die-hards. Have you ever noticed the instant brotherhood between DustinKensrue/Thrice fans? If you get it, man you really get it!
Caleb Astle +1000 to all in this comment. Its been along road since illusion of safety or even before that..to think now il be 30 this year and still die hard to thrice and dustin...i mustve been 13 or 14 when i started listening...been listening every since, and the messages have only grown stronger
Dustin Kensrue may be the most underrated song writer on the planet. What a stud.
100%

The added commentary on these songs adds so much to the tracks.
Hate it that i took me so many years to discover Dustin's solo music. Been my favourite lately ♥
Favorite lyricist of all time... has been for 15 years

+Caleb Astle Just found him last year... 15 years?! Where have i been?! This stuff is so good.
5 years late to the party but I've got to say this has got to be one of the most underrated love songs out there.
We always come back to what feels right.
For me your song is the true hope 🖤🤘😎🤘
Your words are so profound, this song moved me to tears...
This honestly just makes me cry.
This song has gotten me through some tough times. Whenever I feel down, I listen to it, and it gives me hope. I love it.
I remember first hearing this song after waiting for this album for months. This is most definitely refreshing, meaningful music that the world needs!
