I made this song over three years ago, in memory of Benjamin Spurgin. Lord rest his soul. It also matched up with the death of a friend of mine, who died as I was making this song. Lord rest her soul.
Once again, tragedy had to strike in order for me to make something like this. A few days ago, a dear friend's sister was murdered. I've been sad, furious and speechless for a day now. All I could do is have sad thoughts. Then I remembered this melody. Tragic, yes, but it reminded me of what's important. Sulking about and dwelling on the grief and sorrow of the loss of our loved ones won't help. It will only sink us further and further into depression. All we can do is remember them with kindness and love in our hearts, and live on...
... for them.
