    Had a friend in the Marine Corps that loved this song and played it any chance he got. He ended up taking his life after our desperate to change his mind. Anyways a year goes by and a bunch of Marines and I are visiting some family in Maryland. Someone pulled out a guitar and in our drunken emotional states we all yelled this song into the wind as loud as we could. Probably 15-20 people yelling for our buddy, all drunk and crying. I come here every day for him and I can always smell the east coast ocean and pines. Rest in Peace 1994-2015

    The first time I heard this song was at an acoustic night open mic night at a coffee house in college, the gentleman who played it had just lost his father who had taught him this song and had given him the mandolin he played it on. He sang a lot of it straight but started to break down about about two thirds in. So did we. He struggled through the tears, playing his instrument beautifully, and everyone gave him a standing ovation when he finished. I'll remember that until the day I die.

    This was the first song I ever learned, I could sing every word to my dad and papaw when I was 5 or 6 years old. My papaw has since passed and my dad had a massive stroke and is currently on life support. I played him this song and he was able to squeeze and shake my hand. This song always brings back so many memories and every-time I hear it it’s like the first time again. It will always have a place in my heart.

Some have a bitter sweetness but are still part of who we are. We will only find peace when we can learn to hold all of these differences dearly and stand strong to defend against anyone or anything that seeks to hurt even the weakest of us. We have shown we have the might but do we have the wisdom and compassion...time will tell... GODSPEED neighbor

    Omg music is so beautiful. I haven't heard this song in so long. I have tears in my eyes. I used to listen to this when I had rough times in my early 20's. I kicked out of my house, was exploited at work, and almost got kicked out of university. . . I had a rough time getting through my bachelors. Now in my late 20's, I'm studying for my exit exams for my masters and I live in a beautiful house. Man, this gave me the chills. Bless up.
