The last thing on my mind

I listened today, after a long time, to Tom Paxton’s iconic song “The Last Thing on My Mind”.

How does somebody manage to create something so beautiful out of so much sadness?

I guess that is just one of those mysteries of the human heart.

One thought on “The last thing on my mind”
