you ever notice that the sky is all the way to the ground?
wait. Hold on. What?"
I can't get over this!
I've been listening to David Crowder*Band's album A Collision (thanks for letting me copy that tim) and was really intrigued by the tracks "A Conversation" and "The Lark Ascending." If you haven't heard these tracks, they're a recording of a phone interview for a magazine article about the album A Collision.
I wanted to understand what David Crowder was talking about in the interview better so I found this website that talks about the piece "The Lark Ascending" by Vaughan Williams, and includes a link to listen to the piece, and the text of the poem by George Meredith of the same name, which is the inspiration for the piece.
Now, while the phone interview is taking place, the piece by Vaughan Williams enters into the background as David explains it and continues to swell and is joined by the song "I'm Trying to Make You Sing," until it over-powers the conversation. At the same time the conversation gets deeper and deeper.
So I went online to find the rest of the interview. And I see that when the conversation is overtaken this is what is being said:
[David:] did you ever notice that the sky is all the way to the ground?
[Andy:] wait. Hold on. What?
[David:] we're walking around in it. We're in the sky.
There is sky and there is ground and we're somewhere in between.
That is where we live.
And sometimes some of us take wing and when they do,
when their feet leave the ground, even for a second,
they pull the rest of us with them.
And when we rise, and when we rise,
and when we notice that the sky has been around us all along.
We have been walking into it. It has been this constant collision.
Divinity and depravity.
And we rise and we rise and we rise and we rise and we rise
and we rise and we rise and we rise and we rise and we rise
and we rise and we rise and we rise and we rise...
I almost lost it when I saw that.
"We're walking around in it. We're in the sky. There is sky and there is ground and we're somewhere in between. That is where we live.

Such an awesome perspective to view the world through.
I just had to share this...
