When you are going through transitions, do you lean into a daily practice? Here is one of mine:
I’ve been doing a lot of thinking
About growing older and moving on
Nobody wants to be told that they’re getting on
For a long, long stay
But just how long and who knows
And how and where my spirit will go
Will it soar like Jazz on a saxophone
Or evaporate on a breeze
Won’t you tell me please
That life is eternal
And love is immortal
And death is only a horizon
Life is eternal
As we move into the light
And a horizon is nothing
Save the limit of our sight
Save the limit of our sight
Here on earth I’m a lost soul
Ever trying to find my way back home
Maybe that’s why each new star is born
Expanding heaven’s room
Eternity in bloom
And will I see you up in that heaven
In all its light will I know you’re there
Will we say the things that we never dared
If wishing makes it so
Won’t you let me know
That life is eternal
And love is immortal
And death is only a horizon
Life is eternal
As we move into the light
And a horizon is nothing
Save the limit of our sight
Save the limit of our sight
Life is Eternal is a song by Carly Simon. The above are the lyrics
I use music lyrics and poetry for inspiration. I keep them by my bed and one in my wallet. What do you do or use for inspiration? My friend asked me, how do I make the time to find them, cut them out and put them where I will use them. How could I not? I have me to rely on daily and I build my pantry with essentials, like poetry and music.
Happy Spring,
Natalie
