Roof Leak Crisis? Here's How to Resolve It Quickly

Picture this: you wake up to raindrops pattering against your window, cosy in your bed. But then, you notice something alarming – a damp patch spreading across your ceiling.

“I feel like vulnerability is mandatory for an artist. I feel like we are a channel for people who can’t express what we express.”

Temporary Fixes

Arima has returned with her 10-track EP "Temporary Fixes." She invites listeners into her subconscious mind and takes you on a walk through self exploration, detachment, healing, love and vulnerability. At a time when artists aren’t inclined to bare it all, Arima Ederra fearlessly croons from a heart-soaked pocket of divinity while exploring life and all of it’s temporary experiences.

this reminds me that music heals

work in progress

As I look into the night, I’m reminded of you. I miss the moon but was taught to never give up my freedom or fall in potential. I’ve touched the surface of the deepest hearts and yet I still roam, in search of. I’ve picked up pieces of left over me’s in all of you and crafted a masterpiece that somehow, always, ends up an unfinished work in progress.

I’ve gotten a little too good at making it just about me. I tread lightly between selfishness and discernment, mourning and coping, acceptance and solitude, love and loving, confidence and boasting, judgement and hiding, perfection and passion.

Tread, tread, tread Long, long, long

I usually fall for myself in all of you’s. I see a bit of me that I once was or almost am or remembering to be and I run with it, then from it. Running so fast, only to find the same rusted hidden message beneath the first kiss.

My passions lie in my purpose, for a reason. No material, place or being can fill this void that keeps me up with a pen at night but… me. I’ve sky dived into the pit of my stomach and regained the key.

I, eye, I n I I feel so selfish, every night I come back to me. With every fall, I catch myself in a new nest. I paint words and hum lukewarm lullabies with the blue birds in the sunrise. I left ever lasting impressions in your chest pressed with mine. I see it in your eyes every time. I left the tips of my brushes wet in your favorite colors and fruit.

I haven’t forgot, I’m remembering all of me first; while crafting the most beautiful work in progress~

We're The Subsitutes

It's the lips, hands, and the dip of his arm

just below the shoulder

that gets me every time.

I never planned on falling, instead

hoping that I could just do part-time stumbling.

But I could not stop my fingers 

from twisting into the curls of his hair.

I could not convince my lips 

to stop just an inch from his.

I could not tear my arms from his waist 

when he pressed his face

hard against my collarbones.

We wasted hours burying our bones into each other

and I fell so fast and so temporarily

that my elbows didn't even have Time 

to heal themselves.

on gun control...

i do not think that enforcing stricter laws is really going to solve the current problem at hand. 

the REAL problem is the person behind the gun. there are more serious issues than the accessibility of a weapon, any weapon (and any object not intended for harm but that can be used as a weapon). the root of the problem is the corruption of the person's very core. the outward manifestation, whether it be violent or not, is the product of what is being stirred up inside. 

we need a revolution of the heart, soul, and mind, which can only truly come through Christ!

all other means of such endeavors, though with good intention, will be fruitless and short-lived. all of these are temporary fixes and 'feel good' ( or rather, 'feel safe') actions that will only last until the next big catastrophe occurs, causing all future measures to then become even more increasingly restrictive.
