Peter Gabriel - In Your Eyes

There are certain 80’s songs that give me an overwhelmingly painful and bittersweet sense of nostalgia. This is definitely one of them.

Yes. I just watched a video that this doctor talks about how this song to him is about the child version of us. How we abandon that version of us. How to heal we have to reconnect with that child. It’s our younger us looking towards us to be the parents/ love we didn’t have. Listening to it that way has me crying for that child it’s so beautiful.

Keep on fighting the good fight. He's always been the one. There was never a question.

It was bittersweet for sure but you are correct that if it wasn't for that, who knows what we would have missed out on?
