This might be as good as it gets for you, and you better get right with it

I was moved by this, have been seeing reminders lately of Austin musician, Stephen Bruton, who died in May of 2009 of his cancer. I miss his voice and his incredible way with words.
This might be as good as it gets for you, and you better get right with it, right now.

Here's a video I've had on here before, but I'm loving it again tonight. Heart of Hearts - The Resentments


e·piph·a·ny
   /ɪˈpɪfəni/
–noun, plural -nies.
  1. ( initial capital letter ) a Christian festival, observed on January 6, commemorating the manifestation of Christ to the gentiles in the persons of the Magi; Twelfth-day.
  2. an appearance or manifestation, esp. of a deity.
  3. a sudden, intuitive perception of or insight into the reality or essential meaning of something, usually initiated by some simple, homely, or commonplace occurrence or experience.
  4. a literary work or section of a work presenting, usually symbolically, such a moment of revelation and insight.

Great song -- great epiphany -- thanks for posting both videos. Something to think about, that's for sure.

I never thanked you for "introducing" me to Stephen Bruton. When you blogged about him last year, I listened to some of the videos/audios and loved what I heard. When both Jeff Bridges & T Bone Burnett gave shout outs to Stephen upon winning the Academy Award, the tears rolled down my face as I clapped like crazy. THANK YOU!
