Today, I wanted to spend some time reading and responding to comments of fans on my Facebook page. Yes, there are great comments, but there are also a lot of people who are very opinionated and judgmental. So, initially, when I read these judgmental comments, I don't feel vulnerable, but rather I get defensive. But once I get past that anger, it sort of becomes hurt. It becomes pain.
MatisyahuWhen there's light shining on a tree, that tree takes on different meaning. If there's no light at all it just looks dead. If you look at light as godly meaning, the world comes alive in a certain way.
MatisyahuI can't choose the most meaningful song that I've written. That would be like choosing one child over another. But first borns are always special.
MatisyahuPeople get so caught up in needing to know and having to prove themselves to be right, and I'm blown away by this.
MatisyahuEveryone's right or wrong, Everyone's got an opinion, put them in a song and let me keep on living.
MatisyahuThere is an assumption if you are not religious, you have fallen, or you are further from God, or you are not doing the right thing. The judgment on me, with regard to my changes, is that he must be out all night partying or banging prostitutes and doing blow. This whole thing for me was absolutely the contrary. It was actually that God started to become very real to me, inside.
