"Take me closer to believing than I've ever come before. For a moment changes all things..." Hmmm... there are just some songs that never really get out of your head (thank you Emerson Lake and Palmer for this one).
This last year (or so) has been such a wild ride. I had been closer to believing than I ever was before, yet a moment did change everything. Actually just six simple words repeated on two separate days. Yet they completely changed my understanding of the life I had been living for the last two years. How easy it is to skew the world to a view that is so completely distanced from reality. How easier it is still for others to let you ride along there. Not because there is any malice in doing so, just because it is easier to let it ride.
Yet here I am wondering if that song has reason to echo in my head. And what are the consequences? How blind does it make us when we allow ourselves to believe? Conversely, how empty are we if we simply refuse not to?
And since a moment changes all things. and to end is but to start - then what have any of us to loose? I thought perhaps I needed to think this out again - now I see, it is better not to be thinking at all.
I am closer to believing - and I think its time to start...What is that other line?.... Ah yes,
"Measure after measure...Like writing on the Wall"
It really is a great song.........
