Charlie, I wish we’d have kept in touch better after I left. I know though that distance & time has a way of making that difficult though. You were a great friend to me & I will always be thankful you were in my life, however brief a time. I will always hold you & the memories of you close to my heart. You gave me something when I left as a going away gift….you burnt a CD of 311’s Stereolithic album & told me to listen to it on my way out of state, you said especially track 15. You have no idea what that meant to me at that time, starting life over in a new state, leaving you & other friends behind. Track 15 gave me so much peace & comfort when I needed it the most so I will dedicate it back to you & hope it brings you peace & comfort on your journey now. You will forever be missed friend.
"Tranquility"
Journey in peace now
You don’t have to be afraid
Though mistakes, they have been made
Journey in peace now
Journey in peace now
You don’t have to be afraid
Though mistakes, they will be made
Journey in peace now my friend.
No you can’t go around it
You have to walk right through it
My father told me that so long ago
Every time that you ignore it
It gets a little more
You just have to walk toward
The fear to go
Don’t be afraid, it’s all part of the plan for us
Don’t be afraid, it’s all part of the plan for us
All that you hold dear
Is on the other side of that fear
