Rising from the past, my shadow
Is running in silence to meet me.

Rising from the past, my shadow
Is running in silence to meet me.

There’s a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
‘Cause you know sometimes
words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook
There’s a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiving
Ooh, it makes me wonder …

… it’s whispered that soon,
if we all call the tune …
… a new day will dawn for those who stand long
… the forests will echo with laughter …
Led Zeppelin – Stairway to heaven

… But most of all I miss the truth, the truth in which we are no longer listeners or storytellers, but we give and forgive.

See her come down, through the clouds
I feel like a fool
I aint got nothing left to give
Nothing to lose
So come on Love, draw your swords
Shoot me to the ground
You are mine, I am yours
Lets not fuck around
Cause you are, the only one …

Angus and Julia Stone – Draw Your Swords

… Things down here are fragmented
In fact they’ve exploded all over the room
I think everything’s a little off-center, babe
I do dear, I do
You said, that to love me you must set me free
Now, that may all be very well
Still I miss you baby
More than words can ever tell
Sometimes I can not sleep
The greatness of my hate for you
Sometimes I can not sleep
For I miss you
May your day be as bright as the eyes
Of the girl that I once knew
May your sun be happy yellow, babe
And your sky be baby blue
I miss your manic scratches
And your howling at the moon
Ten steps behind me
With your dustpan and broom
I hope you wish for me
All the things I wish for you
Health, hope and happiness
The sun and the moon
Say hello to the one
Who really don’t have a clue
I’ll be calling you soon
I think I love you
Nick Cave & The Bad Seed – I Do Dear

If you always attach positive emotions to the things you want, and never attach negative emotions to the things you don’t, then that which you desire most will invariably come your way.

So it is said, for him who understands Heavenly joy, life is the working of Heaven; death is the transformation of things. In stillness, he and the yin share a single Virtue; in motion, he and the yang share a single flow.
