Have you ever seen the sun rise After a big fat buffalo's stampede Have you ever seen the sun rise On a big fat salt lake in the West
Have you ever seen the moon shine In unison like the stars in heaven Have you ever seen the clouds darken At a speed unmatched by light
Have you ever seen the loving eyes Of someone who'd do anything for you Have you ever seen the love People are so eager to give
Have you ever stood still To unbind yourself from the biases put before you Have you ever stood still To realize that you are so incredibly small
Have you ever stood still That every big person started out small, too Have you ever stood still To love all the details
Have you ever stood still To see the beauty all around you Have you ever stood still That you are loved
So when you complain, remind yourself that life is omniscient and you are but a traveler passing through.
Your chances of being happy and successful depend solely on you. Not on society, your parents, your friends or your peers. Just you. That must feel like an awful lot of pressure, but you know what? Take it easy. As long as you do what you love and you love what you do, you'll get there in your own special way. Just be yourself :)
Everyone has a different path; everyone grew up to a variety of differing perspectives. Don't be stopped by your surroundings; and don't be stopped by yourself. If you're afraid, face it...step by step. As I always say: "Baby steps...you'll get there".
