From the toxic kind, such as addiction and dependency, to the freedom of loving the simple and the mundane parts of our everyday life, the land, the nature and of course the people, and in the final track on the record – the self. All our experiences are woven together in one thread to make us who we are – the ugly and painful with the beautiful and loving.”
