it never goes away

warning: there is an unusually high sap content in this entry, so if that sort of thing upsets your stomach, i'd suggest waiting until the next post.

i was in yoga this evening and the teacher did something i have never experienced before in a class. normally if there is music playing in the background, it is instrumental or may have some chanting. well, this instructor played songs with words. all of the songs were pretty mellow, but gave the whole class a different feel for me. one of the early songs really struck me, so i asked the teacher about it after the class. its called 'the fear you won't fall' by joshua radin.

i looked it up on youtube when i got home, and the video that i happened to choose flashed a series of quotes on the screen. some of the quotes were lyrics from the song and others just made you pause. this one made me pause:

"the first time you fall in love, it changes your life, and no matter how hard you try, it never goes away."

ah. that explains it.
