....love your life

Appreciating what we have  is such a difficult thing to do.  Yet if we look around us at the simplest of things, like a  sunrise disguising itself behind the morning  fog...we see the magnificent beauty of life.  When I was younger it felt like I would live forever, but now a bit smarter...and older, I know my sunset is not in the far distant future.  It is a lesson for the young to ponder and the old to take advantage of.  Look at your life in a new positive perspective and view what is about you as something to be in awe of....whether it be a sunrise, a flower, a cool fresh wind blowing or some person you care about.  All these things and more make up what is life, and to live it to it's fullest is an accomplishment.   Don't look back in regret, but push  forward with a determined conviction to live the rest of your life to its fullest.  One of my favorite singer-songwriters is James Taylor and the song "The Secret of Life", would seem appropriate for this particular blog.  So without further adieu here it is.

 The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time

Any fool can do it

There ain't nothing to it

Nobody knows how we got to the top of the hill

But since we're on our way down

We might as well enjoy the ride

The secret of love is opening up your heart

It's okay to feel afraid

But don't let it stand in your way

Cause anyone knows that love is the only road

And since we're only here for awhile

Might as well show some style and give us a smile 

Isn't it a lovely ride

Sliding down...Gliding down

Try not to try too hard...it's just a lovely ride

Now the thing about time is that time

Isn't really real

It's just your point of view

How does it feel for you

Einstein said he could never understand it all

Planets spinning through space

The smile upon your face

Welcome to the human race

Some kind of lovely ride

I'll be sliding down...I'll be gliding down

Try not to try too hard...It's just a lovely ride

Isn't it a lovely ride...Sliding down...Gliding down

Try not to try too hard...It's just a lovely ride

Now the secret of life is enjoying the passage of time.......

Hope you enjoyed today's blog...........jim
