Diary of Jane

I am all.DONE.with Christmas.presents. I had the day off but it didn't feel like I was at home very much. I went to Bountiful, Sugar House twice, and ate three full meals today with some of my favorite people. I was able to help a young mother at the post office with her squirming daughter and I could see the relief and appreciation on her face. I did it for two reason: The first being it was the right thing to do and second, I hope when I am in that situation in the future, someone will be nice and help me too. Seeing this precious girl spiraled my thoughts into a deeper spectrum of possibilities for my life. Every day I fight the urge to desire more. I don't necessarily need more in my life; I just need now and no worries. Once I master this phase of my life, I will be ready to move on. I feel that coming soon.

"Daniel"
by Bat for Lashes

Daniel, when I first saw you
I knew that you had a flame in your heart
And under wild blue skies
Marlboro movie skies
I found a home in your eyes
We'll never be apart

And when the fires came
The smell of cinders and rain
Perfumed almost everything
We laughed and laughed and laughed

And in the golden blue
Car you took me to
The darkest place you knew
And you set fire to my heart

When I run in the dark, Daniel
To a place that's vast
Under a sheet of rain in my heart
I dream of home

But in the goodbye bed
With my arms around your neck
Into our mouths the tears crept
Just kids in the eye of the storm

And as my house spun round
My dreams pulled me from the ground
Forever to search for the flame
For home again
For home again

When I run in the dark
Into a place that's vast
Under a sheet of rain in my heart
I dream of home

When I run in the dark
Into a place that's vast
Under a sheet of rain in my heart
I dream of home
