Wish You Were Here
Posted: Thu Jul 11, 2013 1:00 am
So today I was working on one of my many projects this summer and decided to listen to some AIO (which has been pretty common this week), so I picked up "Wish You Were Here" since it is one of my newer, and therefore, less listened to albums.
I never knew this album was so important. As I was listening I realized how much I enjoyed it.
It starts off with a road trip with Bernard and Eugene. I love these two together, their banter and personalities are just perfect together and pretty much always make a good episode. But not only are they enjoyable to listen to, they are really good episodes. "The Fifth House on the Left" especially stood out to me today. Bernard's witnessing to Tammy is simply inspiring, the willingness from our Odyssian friends to help others in need is also inspiring. Eugene made really good points to Kelsey about being fake and artificial. There was just so much that stood out to me. The other episodes are also good and they have also revealed a lot to me the other times I have listened to them.
Eugene seems to start going through his character development/Christian journey in this album. He is on a quest to find himself, he is soul searching the Eugene way and I think he really learned a lot. This is the beginning of his change in personality in my opinion.
Not only this amazing stuff with Bernard and Eugene, but this album also introduces Jack and Jason. (I actually haven't finished the album tonight, but I will tomorrow, it's too late for me to continue with my project. But I had to post!). But Jack helps us deal with change and points out that there may be something better for us, if we just accept change in our lives. Another important lesson for me.
Other than the before mentioned awesome things. This album has some of the best adult characters, Jack, Bernard, Tom, Eugene, Connie, and a little Harlow and Bart (from what I have heard tonight) and some lovable kid characters that can be overlooked, like scrubs.
Anyways, what do you all think of Wish You Were Here? Any important lessons you have learned, or things you have thought of? What's your favorite episode from the album? Thoughts, comments, ideas?
