I feel that rush of energy and youth come surging back. Not completely positive feeling I'll admit. There are streaks of despair and fear among the almost euphoric energy. But I feel alive in the way that true artists can inspire. So thanks for the memories now and then, Ozzy. RIP, my fellow traveler.
