“When someone close to you dies, the line is shifted really drastically about what is meaningful and what isn't.” Meaningful Author:Phil Elvrum
“All the books on my shelves, when I would go to them to look for help with my anguish, they all just seemed so crass. They didn't get it. Those books don't understand. Nobody understands. The universe, nobody understands my agony, or my questioning, and it's this shift in what in the world around us could possibly be meaningful or helpful.” WorldBookHelpingUniverseMeaningfulHelpfulQuestioningAnguish Author:Phil Elvrum
“It's a beautiful idea to focus on how everything is temporary and always in flux. It may feel bad now, but it will feel good later, and vice versa. To write about those things brings this satisfying feeling as a creative person. There's a lot of music out there that's like, "I'm so mad! I'm sad! I'm into skulls and crossbones and the color black," and that's just meaningless and shallow. So much of metal is about that and it's hard to find metal that is substantial and meaningful in terms of its content.” WritingFeelingsBeautifulBlackTermCreativeFocusMadMeaningfulFeel GoodTemporaryMeaninglessMetalsShallowFind Me Author:Phil Elvrum
