Goodness. The title of this blog is "30 And Confused" (a reference to the Ezio song) and here I am ten years later, 40 and still confused. Lots of crap has happened in between - some of it good, some of it rubbish, a lot of it wasted time. I wonder if LJ will be around in another 10 years...

I don't post much on here any more but this video, the sadness layered deep within it, and the knowledge that this Hawiian singer died at such a young age, just struck a chord with me.
