JR Richards - A Beautiful End
Last Updated on Monday, 14 February 2011 07:00 Sunday, 29 November 2009 17:46
Fate – we say goodbye on this day
a Potter’s field angel lay
the sunlight fills from your grace -
and so much love gives this place the feel of warmth inside
I hear the words of your life
an angel gone……. moved on
its a beautiful end to a beautiful life
a beautiful night to a beautiful day
its a beautiful end to a beautiful life
A beautiful soul gone this day
the flame – a candle burns in yoru stead
rose line white and red
you rose up high above us when
we felt a strength pass through us then
your body felt your bones but not the love of your soul
your love goes on and on
its a beautiful end to a beautiful life
a beautiful night to a beautiful day
its a beautiful end to a beautiful life
a beautiful soul gone this day
surrender, rest here angel rest
make us strong, calm all the oceans
it was a beautiful end to a beautiful life
November said goodbye
rest angel rest
JR Richards, a former lead singer/ songwriter from one of my all time favorite alternative band Dishwalla, have come up to this beautiful song as a tribute to a 15 year old daughter of a close friend who died of cancer. I have grown to love Dishwalla, most of their songs have became my personal anthem and soundtrack of my so-called life. With the discontinuity of the band, along came Richards solo album, a showcase of his rare talent and passion for music. As always, he never fails to entertain us with his strings of melodies and compelling lyrics.
The first time that I listened to this song, tears filled the corner of my eyes. I was moved and enveloped with deep emotions as the music delves into the feeling of losing someone you love. My father died a year ago, I was caught unprepared for the great loss. For a certified papa’s girl like me, losing him is like having my whole worlds orbit shifted into a different axis. Momentarily, I am still on the grieving process and tying to cope up, but never would I consider at this very stage that my fathers passing is a beautiful end, death can never be associated with beauty, not even close....—– not until I bumped into this song. My father maybe gone but his love goes on and on…….
My First Attempt @ Blogging....

Here we go.. I have been reading other peoples personal blog for quiet sometime now but never thought of having one..I should say, not in my wildest dream!. I am always baffled with my lack of confidence and I would rather keep my thoughts to myself. I tend to be conscious of what other people perceived of me and likely uncomfortable having my life magnified in public. Although I am aware that i can always conceal my identity behind fictitious name or aliases and what not, as well as owning full control of my input. However, sometimes it felt like seemingly pointless to exemplify bits and pieces of your thoughts while leaving some people mindless and having others implausibly raising their eyebrow saying “who cares?”.
What brought me here?. My passion for reading and gaining inspiration from other bloggers who reap the good benefit of doing as such fuels my desire to write. As of the moment, I am in the process of getting myself acquainted with its underlying techniques on how to optimize my blogging experience and delighted with the fact on how blogging breaks the personal barrier of self expression. Meanwhile, I’m taking my first baby step into the world of blogging , take it in stride and see where it shall lead me into the infinite world of cyberspace…
