Lost Loved Ones: Searching for a Heart of Gold

Landscape Under a Stormy Sky
Vincent van Gogh
Heart of Gold

I want to live,
I want to give
I’ve been a miner for a heart of gold.
It’s these expressions
I never give
That keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I’m getting old.
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I’m getting old.
I’ve been to Hollywood
I’ve been to redwood
I crossed the ocean for a heart of gold
I’ve been in my mind,
its such a fine line
That keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I’m getting old.
Keeps me searching for a heart of gold
And I’m getting old.
Keep me searching for a heart of gold
You keep me searching for a heart of gold
And I’m getting old.
I’ve been a miner for a heart of gold.
-Neil Young



While we still have time, my old friend, visit with Neil Young on his European tour and catch the magic left in a time when yesterday rang so true with family, friends, and songs of good cheer as our now departed quietly remind us of our shared, kindred spirit that knows neither time nor distance or privelege.

That’s all I want to say, that this timeless world takes away from us those we love but never truth and peace, should we allow it.

Stay well and leave this world a better place for it, dammit.

Always,

-2Truthy
