Last night I was awoken by my TV blaring in my earslike a jet engine hovering above. I remembered going to bed with the TV turned off so i could shuffle through my thoughts and fall sound asleep like a baby. But no. It was around 3 am and my TV just blasted some VH1 at me. VH1 is usually the station of choice when im relaxing in bedroom reading or writing. Unlike MTV they actually broadcast good music (see John Mayer and The Fray).
Anyways just stumbling around looking for the remote which was hidden under the darkness of my bedroom i caught a listen of the song pacing through the airwaves of my slumber. The song was "You Found Me" by The Fray. I myself am quite a closet "The Fray" fan. Their melodies are intense and vocal harmonies are quite complimentary by the piano. Anyway as i was catching a listen a line flashed through my mind from this song.
"I Found God, On The Corner of 1st and Amistad. I Said "Where Have You Been."
I proceded to turn my set off and fall back into my dreams but as I awoke this morning I thought of this line over and over. Where is god? Where has he been?
I myself am not a stickler for religous deabtes and conversation because I just feel growing up I shouldn't even give my opinion on christ or religon because im not a normal church goer. Ive gone years without going but that is my own fault. I do blame myself. I can't take it back but if I could i would probably choose to attend church more often.
Still like many other people in our sad state of our country I also find myself asking "God, Where have you been?" Where were you when we lost our loved ones? Where were you when the towers fell and the Levees broke? People cant start resorting to asking were God is through our lives. I guess im just opening my thoughts too much and overthinking stuff. But this is my blog. But seriously.
God, Where have you been?
