The sun sets on another day…
Sunset was brandishing a flotilla of fluffy clouds that broke only barely in the sky. The fiery orb high above did not break through, but instead the light simply faded and was gone, a subtle end to a magnificent day.
I was listening to the bridge tonight and heard a song called “Can’t take my eyes off of you”. Of course the song is about how someone is so awesome that can’t take their eyes off them, but underlying is the idea that something is too good to be true. Why is that? I had it stuck in my head for a while and thought it through, and maybe it never is “Too good to be true” just “Too good to believe”. Why is it that we can so easily believe in how bad something is but not how good. With that, I give you a thought to consider.
Too…
I thought about my life today and things that made me blue,
I thought about the death and pain and things that I thought true
I thought about the feelings and endless numbing aches
I thought about the bad people, and the ones that turned out fake
I thought about the needs of the many and the few
I thought about the feelings that we all could have anew
I thought about the fire, and the cold the pricks and stings
I thought about it all, and a hundred hundred things
Then I found my passion, and the feelings deep inside
The hurt I felt for one day, could open doors forever wide
The cold I felt for someone, could open massive love
The bad and fake that tore my heart, lifted me higher and above
The death and pain and hurtful things I once thought were the worst
Had no power on me now, nor unforgiving curse
I have a choice each day I know, and I know I knew it too
The I could be the fire, and one day know a few
For each day can build a life, and in that life so good
I know what I knew always, and I knew I always would
Share the day with me now, and feel the good abound
You’ll hear it in your heart now, and the pleasant simple sound
You can think about it, and we can think more too
and in the end we forge a path forever to pursue
Why not? Why not just take the path that we build? Why not take the road to a higher place.
So as the sun sets on another day, I think I will take the fun path, and enjoy my days every day. It is there the world will open and make everything better each day, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and find a good path…
