''The Freedom Song''
haven't seen him in a while
You'll make a note to find me
or a number you can dial
One day you'll ask about me:
where on earth can he be found?
And learn at last I've set my sail
where sun and sea abound
One day you'll say about me:
goes the nomad on his way
To live the life's adventure
that he said he would some day
One day you'll write about me:
there's the man who lived his dream
Cut loose the oars and left the boat
to swim a different stream
And then one day amid the noise
and hustle of the throng
You'll hear a tune first faintly
that's been playing all along
You'll know the singer instantly
you'll recognize my voice
A heart-felt freedom song
of life lived not by chance but choice...
COMMENTARY:
As you move into the new year, make a promise to yourself to give yourself the life of your dreams. Remember, however, that it's not always a smooth transition. Particularly if your dream is of a life radically different from the one you're currently living, the change may require a leap of faith from one stream to an entirely different one.
And so that both genders can copy, paste, print and post on their walls as a reminder, here's a slightly different version.
The Freedom Song
One day you'll think about me:
haven't seen her in a while
You'll make a note to find me
or a number you can dial
One day you'll ask about me:
where on earth can she be found?
And learn at last I've set my sail
where sun and sea abound
One day you'll say about me:
goes the nomad on her way
To live the life's adventure
that she said she would some day
One day you'll write about me:
there's the girl who lived her dream
Cut loose the oars and left the boat
to swim a different stream
And then one day amid the noise
and hustle of the throng
You'll hear a tune first faintly
that's been playing all along
You'll know the singer instantly
you'll recognize my voice
A heart-felt freedom song
of life lived not by chance but choice...
