What do you think about this song by John Mayer?


Is it too sappy?
Does it pull at the heart strings too much?

It was the finale in the movie Ghost Town.

I like it. I observe that some things can be helpful for different people at different phases of their grief journey.

Some songs might speak to you or your daughter in a different way and that's ok. Just listening to each other and sharing and validating each others experience is huge!

Even if people view many things differently, the core Gospel principles (LOVE; belief in the unseen but hoped; self-reflective change; symbolic cleansing; striving to recognize the will of the divine; never giving up) are universal.

Here is another one. It was recently discovered & enhanced using AI (Artificial Intelligence).
It is a Beatles Song. How & Then. Man, I feel old. These guys started in their music careers when I was
in High School. The message seems a little sad.
