What Inspired This Blog

What both prompted and inspired me to start this blog was a friend sending me the song, Pilgrim, as recorded by Enya.  The message in the song resonated deeply within me for, indeed, I am a Pilgrim.

Lyrics to Pilgrim:

Pilgrim, how you journey
On the road you chose
To find out why the winds die
And where the stories go.

All days come from one day
That much you must know,
You cannot change what's over
But only where you go.

One way leads to diamonds,
One way leads to gold,
Another leads you only
To everything you're told.

In your heart you wonder
Which of these is true;
The road that leads to nowhere,
The road that leads to you.

Will you find the answer
In all you say and do?
Will you find the answer
In you?

Each heart is a pilgrim,
Each one wants to know
The reason why the winds die
And where the stories go.

Pilgrim, in your journey
You may travel far,
For pilgrim it's a long way
To find out who you are...

Pilgrim, it's a long way
To find out who you are...

Pilgrim, it's a long way
To find out who you are...

Note: I do disagree with one line in this song and that is, "you cannot change whats over."  I happen to very much believe that one can change whats over i.e., the past, as I consider that past, present and future all exists simultaneously.

There are numerous video mixes of Pilgrim available on YouTube. This one is my pick:
