The Sound of What We Need to Know

December 31, 2006

Give light, and the darkness will disappear of itself.
- Desiderius Erasmus

One Voice

This is the sound of one voice
One spirit, one voice
The sound of one who makes a choice
This is the sound of one voice

This is the sound of voices two
The sound of me singing with you
Helping each other to make it through
This is the sound of voices two

This is the sound of voices three
Singing together in harmony
Surrendering to the mystery
This is the sound of voices three

This is the sound of all of us
Singing with love and the will to trust
Leave the rest behind it will turn to dust
This is the sound of all of us

This is the sound of one voice
One people, one voice
A song for every one of us
This is the sound of one voice
This is the sound of one voice

Song from The Wailin' Jennys album, 40 Days
Written by Ruth Moody

My resolution for the new year:
To spread light, scatter love, and hold joy!

So long, darkness... so long.

{NOTE: I finally updated the design for Winter... hit "refresh" if things are lookin' wiggy.}

Beautiful quote and lyrics. Reminds me a bit of high school days and the song "One Voice" by Barry Manilow.

Wishing you all the best in 2007 with your new business endeavors and the resolutions you have made.
