There's this song that's been bouncing around my brain since I first heard it a couple of weeks ago. It's called "One More Day (Live It Up)" by this reggae group called Groundation. I pasted the lyrics in so everyone can read them.
People if i had only one more day
I'd live my life right i would
I would find a way to love everyday,
All people as i should
And as they walk let them talk
Let them talk about yesterday
Standing alone, mounting their sin upon sin
With nothing within
People if i had only one more time to groove yea
People if i had only one more time to move,
I'd let my soul groove
Live it up, live it up,
No you can't(can) go on forever
Live it up, live it up, ya can't (can) go on forever
People if i had only one more day
I'd live my life right i would
I would find a way to love everyday,
All people as i should
And as they walk let them talk
Let them talk about yesterday
Dreaming alone, yes i wish the best for you,
Now what you gonna do?
Live it up, live it up you can't(can) go on forever
No you can't(can) go on forever
Jah jah kingdom forever
Thanks to all of the blogs I've been reading here lately, and the major factor that ethics have played in this election year, I've been thinking a lot about what it means to live a sincerely good life. That question has plagued mankind for thousands of years, and has led to the founding of countless religions and branches of science and art all questing for the answer. This is where I think we got things wrong.
Trying to universalize that answer for everyone is not, in my opinion, the road to the truth. I think we each have to stitch our own answer together out of the fabric of our experience. Because we are such a diverse race of beings, it seems pretty obvious that what works for one individual will not necessarily work for another.
But what do you all think? This is just the way I feel, and I want to hear what everyone else has to say.....
