Helaman : 6
PoeticIntensity
Reading the beginning of this chapter, I knew this was where the Lamanites and Nephites would enter into free commerce with one another. When everyone is living by the same righteous standards, there is no need for distrust, or geographical boundaries, or anything else which comes from people living selfishly. Honest living of the Gospe...

Fatigi Returns!

Man... I was having a downer of a day until this evening when Fatigi came to record 3 new songs. I was really, really tired throughout the day, and thought I was sure to have a hard time focusing when Fatigi came over.
Then I heard them play.
Honestly, I haven't been this awake in a long time. Music just seems to envigorate my...
