I don't want to get deep into details but a little over a year ago I had some pretty traumatic events take place in my life. that kind of turned my world upside down. I was lost mentally and emotionally, and had no idea where to put my effort to recoup.
I never really had significant exposure to religion and/or God, but after said events, I retreated to comfort music, and of course ran through Jons discography.
But this time was different.
I saw myself connecting to the spiritual aspects of his music, instead of just getting lost in the masterpiece that is Jons music.
Tracks like Hand of God, Adult Swim, and, perhaps most significantly, Stupid Deep helped me come to the realization (iykyk) that my priorities were in the right place deep down, I just needed to find them, and that I was never really alone, I just didn't see Him yet.
I owe the man from Long Island a big thank you, and hope I can say it to his face one day.
