Quickie Of the day--Bjork of course

I have a two year old.....enough said.  Hear you go Lovies....another Bjork song to spark your interest.
Undo is the name of the song .  It makes me think of undoing all of the mess humanity has done.  It makes me feel like rebuilding with harmony this time around....and taking time to stop and love our mother earth. The other day as I was driving, I was so in awe of the way the light looked around the fluffy clouds that I ALMOST bumped someone...but I didn't.  Thankfully!  I find myself being effortlessly drawn to nature.....please enjoy!  Listen to the lyrics......Life is not meant to be a struggle.....uphill.

"Undo"

It's not meant to be a strife
It's not meant to be a struggle uphill
Oh I

It's not meant to be a strife
It's not meant to be a struggle uphill
Oh I

You're trying too hard
Surrender
Give yourself in
You're trying too hard
You're trying too hard, ah

It's not meant to be a strife
It's not meant to be a struggle uphill
Sweetly
It's not meant to be as dry
To enjoy
It's not meant to be a stuggle uphill
Oh I

It's warmer now
Lean into it
Unfold
Unfold in a generous way
Surrender

It's not meant to be as dry (surrender)
It's not meant (undo) to be a struggle uphill (undo)
It's not meant to be as dry
It's not meant to be a struggle uphill

I'm praying
To be
In a generous mode
The kindness kind
The kindness kind
To share
Me
To share me

It's not meant to be as dry
It's not meant to be a struggle uphill

It's not meant to be as dry
It's not meant to be a struggle uphill

Undo
Undo
If you're bleeding
Undo
And if you're sweating
Undo
If you're crying, darling
Undo

Undo
Oh I
Unravel

Phaeleh- Afterglow feat. Soundmouse

The song I'm going to talk about today is Afterglow by Phaeleh.  One day I was doing some housework and ....I heard "Taking control of the elements, making them mine, making them mine."  That struck a cord within me, because lately I have been very aware of the "elements"....  Earth, Air, Fire, Water and what they mean to me and how to show appreciation to them.  I have always had a very strong connection with nature and it's a connection that just gets stronger and stronger.  Almost daily, I take my son on nature walks and I try and explain to him how everything is ALIVE!!  We ALL are conscious beings and should be treated as such!  I feel my son is very sensitive to this fact and his reactions to trees, animals, and such prove it.  He'll see a certain tree and stop dead in his tracks just staring at it.  He see's what I can't...yet :)
This song also talks about " taking a hold of the present day" and living in the NOW.  Manifesting your life as you want it to be and being responsible for it. Maybe Afterglow helped me to be more present in each moment.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!!!


Taking control of the elements,
Making them mine, making them mine.

Touching up all of the elements,
Takin' my time, takin' my time.

Takin' a hole of the present day,
Pushin' it all, pushin' it all, pushing it.

Takin' control of my destiny,
Makin' it fine, makin' it fine, makin' it.
