There’s a fabulous line up of great musicians (including Derek Trucks and Doyle Bramhall II) on the stage with Eric Clapton for this version of “Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad” from the Crossroads 2007 Benefit:
It’s the perrenial question isn’t it, when the heart gets broken.
Food For Thought… On this Valentine’s Eve, there are people asking this question… May they all be blessed with the light of love tomorrow.

Sometimes in life you step out of your comfort zone and take a chance… Stepping out on a limb, you trust the universe to keep you safe.
But then, the tree shakes because maybe it’s not strong enough to bear your weight and you plummet to the ground.
So you ask the tree, why did you let me down, but the tree doesn’t respond, it just looks at you and shakes, leaving you filled with uncertainty and pain.
There is heartbreak in losing trust. There is grief in what you may think of as your own failure to recognize, that the tree wasn’t as strong and powerful as it appeared.
Illusions can get shattered like the glass in a mirror. In time with reflection you move past the heartbreak and grief and find your bearings once again. Healing takes time.
