Mom and Son react to Hurt by Johnny Cash’s, a cover of the original song by NIN. Regret is something we all go through and relate to at varying times of our lives in different levels.
#johnnycash
Your mom has a lot of wisdom. You too, in that description about disappearing into despair, overwriting any good that one may have done in life. That’s me. Every day I can only remember the hurt I’ve done to others, the wasted opportunities, significant relationships I missed out on, the bad things I’ve done. I know I must have done some good in my life, but I never remember it. When my mind tortures me with pointing out all my failures, it never tells me anything good I have done for others. I have to tell myself, 'Yeah, but I’ve done good, too." The thing I cling to is Christ, who has been merciful to me, for which I am grateful, but I know I have wasted my life. I have grace, but not much else.
What is hope,
But a gamble against the odds?
A crapshoot in the dark.
A ticket in the lottery.
Why do I hope,
With the Game rigged by wonts?
To ignore the mind’s eye,
Is to flirt with infinity.
What is hope,
But a moonshot for the ages?
Apollo’s aim for guidance.
Shai at the helm.
How can I hope,
When ruin is all I’ve known?
After falling to oblivion,
Warmth presents a fright.
What is hope,
But a road to redemption?
A fearful path to the dawn.
A dim light to show the way.
I’ve seen so many reactions and interpretations of this song, but this one in particular was such a strong message for my current life situation. Your mom is such an amazing analyst, I really want to see more of her insights. I’ve conquered so much, so early, creating things that no one else had before, but in recent times I’ve crumbled into anxiety and depression paralysis, which made projects I’d finish in days into months of struggle. I currently feel like a shell of what I once was, which brings the regrets of decisions I’ve made which turned my empire into dirt. I know it’s still here somewhere inside. The real challenge is to find it again.
This was a original song from Nine Inch Nails from there Lead Singer Trent Reznor about his addictions. . but after he heard this cover from Johnny Cash Trent Reznor Said " This is no longer my song it’s his " The woman you see In the photo is Johnny’s mom . The person who you see on the stairs is June Carter Cash Mr Cash wife who passed shortly after the video was released in a week or so after Johnny Cash passed . I’ve heard at the end of the video when Mr . Cash closed the piano it’s like closing his casket that’s what his daughter said.
We cannot return to the times when we did things that we now wish we hadn’t done.
And, in the moment, would we have done anything different?
So regret cannot be allowed to be chain that bears us down, as we can’t change what happened, and we can’t change whether we would have done it, but it’s a very powerful thing to use for learning perspective on oneself, for learning about what to do in future, and difficult though it is, for learning to accept those parts of ourselves that led to and stem from those regrets. And that acceptance is the first step to gealing
I enjoyed watching this with you, and listening to your interesting insights.
When the one you are closest to grows and you are stuck in the past. They become someone else and you are still right here.

i had a love not to long ago (and i think she loved me to) but she got a cyst on her overys and then after the operation she got depressed. i tried all i could to get it to hold but she told me she didnt want anyone. then when i finaly got enough self belife i started this dating app again and i saw her on there.and it broke my heart. i forgot what to say, i was going to say johnny cash is my hero and i hope he loves the happines he gets from all of us, by helping us thru his music.
Shaboozey had a couple of songs that speak of issues so many people are struggling with. Light a Fire and Good News. The lyrics are so very relatable and emotional.
June is looking at Johnny that way because she was worried about him. He was ill and she was concerned that he was working too hard. It was an unscripted cameo.
Johnny cakes last performance before he passed. Rip
I prefer the ORIGINAL, by NINE INCH NAILS, but Trent Reznor said Johnny “MADE IT HIS OWN” the original official video I used to see on MTV was a live NINE INCH NAILS performance
I’ve heard and watched this video many times, my eyes get watery each time. Especially as an older man, it really hits home. Makes you reflect on your life, the good, the bad, the amazing memories and the failures.
As great as it is, and it is great indeed, don’t forget that it’s a cover
Icon! Johnny and your mom!
Love you!
