You wake up in the morning and fall out of your bed

"I watched you fall.
I think I pushed.
Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe diminished
Maybe I'm innocent
Maybe I'm finished
Maybe I blacked out.
How do I play this?"

There are intresting things in life, that are hard to notice, that one does not usually pay attention to, or tends to overlook in a busy and overcroweded life. They are all around you, and they contribute to life, yet too often they are unappreciated

"I will give my best today
I will give myself away
I have never hurt anything
Is the jury wavering?
Do they know I sing?"


Be it a smile on the face of a stranger, a clear night crimson blue sky, or a brilliant song that just keep on repeating in your head, and imparts itself onto you. A memory


"What's missing? he's living a day he'll soon forget."


So it is with me, i have found something that bought a smile to my face when i was walking along in the rain, that little glitter in my eye, that causes strangers to look at you on the street, and smile back, because they know that you are happy, and happiness is contagious, as ridiciculus as that sounds. It leaves a scent, it marks you. It is the little thing, that you tend not to notice, or appreciate, but if you do, it makes all the difference.

"Open the window
And lift into a dreams
Baby, baby
Baby starts to breathe."


And with this parting verse i hope that what my point is made, i can only thank my inspiration....which came when i least expected it, and from the most unusual source. Take the time to think it, lisen to it, leave your sense behind, absorb it, do not analyze it, just let it awe you.

Smile.
