Asha took this picture of me last week while we were in the Florida Keys escaping winter for a few days. The weather was so beautiful, I had champagne in my hands, and John Mayer was playing in the background.
Looking at the ocean with the sun shining down, it was hard to feel anything but an immense amount of gratitude for this life I have been given in all its forms.
I figured there was no better picture to mark the end of 2022 and welcome the New Year. And perhaps a little bit of John Mayer too.
Happy New Year to you! May 2023 bring you patience, laughs, and peace of mind.
I hate to see you cry
Lying there in that position
There’s things you need to hear
So turn off your tears and listen
Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
No, it won’t all go the way it should
But I know the heart of life is good
You know it’s nothing new
Bad news never had good timing
But then the circle of your friends
Will defend the silver lining
Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
No, it won’t all go the way it should
But I know the heart of life is good
Pain throws your heart to the ground
Love turns the whole thing around
Fear is a friend who’s misunderstood
But I know the heart of life is good
I know it’s good
