“The world does keep moving and it can be a damn cruel place, But for me those moments of stillness, that place, that's the Kingdom of God. And that place will never abandon you.”

Sound of Metal is a touching depiction of a drummer who losses his hearing in the midst of his career possibly taking off. To take a musicians hearing is like taking a filmmakers eyes, a chefs taste. It’s devastating as…
Today I buried my grandma... I was inspired by this movie to write the below in honor of her.
