Daily Doses: Wintercoats “Delicate Position” Ft. Sea Oleena (2011)

Sometimes when I’m at the beach, I skip rocks.

Well, to be honest, every time I’m at the beach I skip rocks. 

And every time I do, I always end up thinking about the amount of time it took that rock to finally get washed up to the shore. The epic journey it undertook while never being able to move of it’s own volition. Then, when it finally reached the end of that journey, it spent exactly 10 seconds under the sun before being thrown right back in.

I like to tell myself that 10 seconds was better because it was so brief. And that if it’d washed all the way onto the shore, it would have just ended up yearning for the ocean again.

But then, I’m biased, and slightly jaded.

I also really like skipping rocks.

Sorry, realizing we’re two days away from the first anniversary of the first Wintercoats EP, Cathedral has me in a contemplative mood. Amazing to think of how much has happened in the last year…
