“These times are so uncertain, there’s a yearning undefined

And people filled with rage

We all need a little tenderness, how can love survive

In such a graceless age

And the trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness

Are the very things we kill, I guess

Pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms

And the work they put between us, you know it doesn’t keep us warm”

- from “Heart of the Matter”, sung most beautifully by India Arie, but written by Mike Campbell, Don Henley, and J D Souther

That’s all for today.
