Musical interlude leading into the last verse...
When I'm deep inside of me
Don't be too concerned
I won't ask for nothing while I'm gone.
But when I want sincerity
Tell me, where else can I turn
Cuz you're the one that I depend upon
Honesty is such lonely word
When everyone is untrue
Honesty is hardly ever heard
And mostly what I need from you
Nope. Not being cryptic...just singing along to Billy Joel's "Honesty". I love Billy Joel's music.
Music is a huge part of my life (as if my last few posts didn't make that apparent).
Ooohh...now it's Dust in the Wind by Kansas...sing along...
I close my eyes
Only for a moment and the moment's gone
All my dreams
Pass before my eyes a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wond
Same old song
Just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do
Crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind.
Don't hang on
Nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind
all we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind.
I love those lyrics..powerful message, yet simplistic in execution. Of course, since I am a child of the 80's I cannot think of the song without visualizing Bill and Ted luring Socrates into the phone booth. If you have no idea what I am talking about, let me know and I will explain.
As you have most likely guessed (and if you are still reading at this point, God bless ya! LOL) I am blogging and listening to music. But I am killing time til the printing and downloading I am doing is completed. Then I have some reading and some work to do.
It's "I'm going to get an agent if it kills me, and it probably will, but that's okay, at least I will have died trying!" time. So I have complied a list of ten "oh please please PLEASE take me on as a client". Their submission requirements are printing out as I type this.
Ohh Ohh..."Hey You!" by Pink Floyd. Sing along if you know this one...
It was only fantasy
The wall was too high as you can see
No matter how he tried he could not break free
And the worms ate into his brain
Hey you!
Out there on the road
Always doing what your told
Can you help me?
Hey You!
Out there beyond the wall
Breaking bottles in the hall
can you help me?
Hey You!
Don't tell me there's no hope at all
Together we stand, divided we fall....
Still printing. didn't realize there were so many pages. Getting....over--whelmed...so..many...options....so...mu...ch...to...re...a...d...
Okay, that's enough from me from now. You guys are going to think I went completely over the deep end. I'm going to sign off for now..but always remember and never forget:
My mama told me good
My mama told me strong
She said, "Be true to yourself and you can't go wrong!"
But there's just one thing that you must understand
You can fool with your brother,
But don't mess with a Missionary man!
