Heard this lovely number today, and it felt like a pretty good anthem for what's on my mind:
Take me to another place, she said
Take me to another time
Run with me across the oceans
Float me on a silver cloud
If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would and I'd take you now
Stay with me till time turns over
I want to feel my feet leave the ground
Take me where the whispering breezes
Can lift me up and spin me around
If I could I would...
Hear you laughing as we go
Flipping backward through the doors and through the windows...
I'm melting into nothing
If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would and I'd take you now
Or perhaps the anti-anthem. You see, I'm working on being present. I'm working on figuring out my purpose, or perhaps I should say living it because I'm pretty sure I know what it is. This book by Rod Stryker is helping me find my path...
I'm also working on cultivating happiness, and Shawn Achor has some pretty awesome things to say about that -- check out his Ted Talk!

After being blown away by an exhibit where a man took a polaroid of himself every day for ten years, I started thinking of other ways to mark the passage of time in a meaningful way for both the artist doing the marking and those taking note. I find a lot of meaning in music, and enjoy writing about my experiences, so I decided to start a blog in which I mark (many of) my days by choosing a song that captures the day in some way (and a link, whenever possible, so you can listen to the song too).
