I've learned that this was Tupac Shakur's favorite song. [View all]

Which surprises me in some ways, and doesn't surprise me at all in other ways.

It's been one of my favorites for years.

It helps me understand a few things about...I don't know...beauty...struggles...and the way things really are in life.

This song, ironically, gives me some clarity when I'm feeling sad.

I guess another recent thread about van Gogh made me peek down a shallow rabbit hole about him, and that reminded me of this song.
