This piece is about traveling a long way only to find your best destination at home. It starts out meditative, but quickly moves into countermelodies and harmonic surprises. You can hear the play between eastern and western musical styles. It is dedicated to Darth, who was the son of a dear friend, and who they lost to an overdose a couple years ago. He was a really special individual with his own quirky style and identity. I always felt a connection with him. This is quite long, at 14:23.
