Adele Likes To Sing To My Soul


When will I see you again?
You left with no goodbye,
Not a single word was said.
No final kiss to seal any seams.
I had no idea of the state we were in.


-Adele, Don't You Remember

Yes this is meant to be about a breakup... However I've found a more personal, applicable interpretation (since I haven't had a recent breakup). I discovered this meaning as I was on my way to work... I was thinking about my dad.
Line one: Its something I think about everyday. When will I see Dad again? I know where (Heaven-in case you were wondering) but when? I don't know. But I'm genuinely anxious to know..even though I won't know ahead time.
Lines two and three: I'm  frustrated. Why didn't he say goodbye? Why didn't he stash a note somewhere,  reminding us that its not our fault and that he does love us? Everything is still surreal. In some moments I just can't believe it... still...
Line four: I had no idea that his depression was that bad. No hint of understanding his state of mind.

On a happier note. I'm ready to meet new people and start a new chapter in my life I would like to call "Dating: A Quest for Marriage". Ok that's a little over-the-top-lets-not-be-too-crazy-ridiculous... but hey. I'm ready to date. Marriage? Ya sure. Eventually. But dating? Yes. Of course who knows if the guys will step up... but I know I'm going to. I'm going to start putting myself out there, since I haven't really for almost 2 years. It's about time don't ya think?
