It's cool to think of how neo soul tunes like these are the soundtrack of my sons childhood. We're vibing to this. He's seven just got home from school we made brownies together with Häagen-Dazs vanilla bean ice cream, chocolate syrup and walnuts now I'm cooking dinner and I just had to take a moment as a single mother and reflect that " Today Was A Good Day" in my Ice Cube voice. 1❤ ☮

Perfect Summary

[@sibongiletasilaphiri7521]

I first heard this song sitting outside by a swimming pool at a friend's house where I was staying for a few days during a work trip. It was the middle of the night and it was drizzling, another friend who was visiting Me, We hadn't seen each other in years, suggested this song & We all listened to it in silence. The first time I heard this song I was surrounded people I love, light showers of rain, beers and a swimming pool in a country not of My own... what a way to hear a song for the first time. 😌🖤

"With the rise of the moon And with the falling of the sun Faint touches of life still exist within the sounds and sights of the night. Fireflies and stars shine bright alike Embodying light just to remind us Among us,among the darkness, among the mysteries, there's always a path. cicadas playing soulful melodies calling behind them the rain and wind to lull sweet insomnia fast asleep. There's a stirring when all is at rest. I'd find myself even in the midst of the sun's slumber. These feelings and emotions, they're nothing to shun. It's a light, a path to the other side." Thank you for your song Healing is something I've always found in music,sometimes when I listen to moonchild, it's rips my old wounds open and then mends them. What a paradox 🤣❤️

[@eclectichandsproductions]

This is such a beautiful song, very peaceful vibe and reflective on the heart and soul of a person. Last month I sadly lost my older sister who had varied health complications with her heart. The lyrics, “The grass is greener on the other side,” I know that my sister can rest easy on the other side in heaven, where she’s at peace and can be with all our other family members who passed on years ago where the grass is greener.
