If you had a song that best described your feelings about this journey
What would it be....I was listening to one of my old Who CD's and I heard this tune....It really struck a chord for me and is a tune I can identify in this journey for the healthier me....
Let's See Action by Peter Townsend (WHO)
Let's see action. Let's see people
Let's see freedom. Let's see who cares
Take me with you. When you leave me
And my shell behind us there
I have learned it. Known who burned me
Avatar has warmed my feet
Take me with you. Let me see you
Time and life can meet
Rumor has it. Minds are open
Then rumors fill them up with lies
Future passing. Nothing lasting
I try to scream, 'cause nothing dies]
Nothing is everything
Everything is nothing is
Please the people, audiences
Break the fences, nothing is
Let's see action. Let's see people
Let's see freedom. In the air
Let's see action. Let's see people
Let's be free. Let's see who cares
Let's see action. Let's see people
Let's see freedom. In the air
Let's see action. Let's see people
Let's be free. Let's see who cares
Give me a drink boy wash my feet
I'm so tired of running from my own heat
Take this package and here's what you do
Gonna get this information through
I don't know where I'm going
I don't know what I need
But I'll get to where I'm gonna end up
And that's alright by me
I've been running from side to side
Now I know for sure that both sides lied
It's got so hard but we gotta keep trying
I can't stand to see my people crying
I don't know where I'm going
I don't know what I need
But I'll get to where I'm gonna end up
And that's alright by me
Let's see action. Let's see people
Let's see freedom. In the air
Let's see action. Let's see people
Let's be free. Let's see who cares
Nothing is everything
Everything is nothing
Nothing is everything
Everything is nothing
What about you? Do you relate to this tune or another one. Inquiring minds want to know! Hugs and Fleece Blankets to all!

Whenever I exercise, I listen to one of my favorite songs on my ipod--it's by Rare Earth and called "I Just Want to Celebrate." It's got a good beat to walk to, plus some of the lyrics really make me think of this journey. Some go--
"I just want to celebrate
Another day of living
I just want to celebrate
Another day of life"
Don't know alot of the rest of the rest of the words, but I believe now we all are finally living and have the chance to celebrate our lives!

the song below has been a big inspiration to me over the last month or so since i heard it for the first time...it seems to me that my weight and health problems were always "laughing at me"
Voice of Truth
Oh what I would do to have
The kind of faith it takes
To climb out of this boat I'm in
Onto the crashing waves
To step out of my comfort zone
Into the realm of the unknown where Jesus is
And He's holding out His hand
But the waves are calling out my name
And they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
Time and time again. "Boy, you'll never win!"
"You'll never win!"
Chorus:
But the voice of truth tells me a different story
The voice of truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
The voice of truth says, "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth
Oh what I would do to have
The kind of strength it takes to stand before a giant
With just a sling and a stone
Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors
Shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand
But the giant's calling out my name
And he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me
Time and time again. "Boy you'll never win!"
"You'll never win!"
But the stone was just the right size
To put the giant on the ground
And the waves they don't seem so high
From on top of them lookin' down
I will soar with the wings of eagles
When I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
Singing over me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth
