Jim Croce was an amazing musician, I'm glad today's amazing musicians are giving him the respect he deserves.

Jim Croce would be proud to know that his song is living on with Seth & Bob. A unique talent who was taken from this earth way to soon in a plane crash at the young age of 30.

As Jim did in the 60's and 70's, The Avetts sing about everyday life...it's Triumph's and tragedies we all endure in many ways on our many roads through their musical talents!!!

I am trying to convince myself as well...but i realize that embracing the pain is the only way to learn the lesson of God. That is the only way to GROW through the pain...rather than just go through it. There is a huge difference and thank God i am learning. It would help if the pain would just go away! In due time...i pray it will.
