Top of the World!

350

being is such a magical place at this time in my life, i can really appreciate everything around me. not everything is perfect, but you can make it perfect if you guide your mind there. go to the top of anywhere you are, close your eyes, take a deep breath, open your eyes, and look at the beauty right in front of you. it could be the ocean, it could be the mountain, it could be buildings, or it could be rice fields like this. but what ever you see, just take it in and appreciate everything around you, including the person or people you’re with. try it and you’ll know exactly what i’m feeling right now…

then this song pops into my head and i’ve been singing it ever since…

Such a feelin’s comin’ over me
There is wonder in ‘most ev’ry thing I see
Not a cloud in the sky, got the sun in my eyes
And I won’t be surprised if it’s a dream

Somethin’ in the wind has learned my name
And it’s tellin’ me that things are not the same
In the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze
There’s a pleasin’ sense of happiness for me

by the Carpenters…
