Quote:

I woke up in another strange place by a 40 acre parking lot with every kind of sign
I was talking to another strange face who was tellin’ me that he didn’t have the time

All I want to do is climb that mountain; All I need is the other way
All I am is a lost soul, searchin’ All I have is today

I was walkin’ through the sands of silver to the Saphire canyon on the River of Jade
I was followin’ a gold sun settin’ when suddenly the light began to fade…

All I want to do is climb that mountain; All I need is the other way
All I am is a lost soul, searchin’ All I have is today

I was ridin’ in a black Tornado with the top pulled down and the lights on dim.
I heard angels singin’ in the darkness, singin’ some Southern gospel hymn…

All I want to do is climb that mountain; All I need is the other way
All I am is a lost soul, searchin’ All I have is today

I was thinkin’ ‘bout a man and woman who were tryin’ to make a livin’ that Sammy wouldn't steal.
I should tell ya if I haven’t told ya, this is exactly how I feel…

All I want to do is climb that mountain; All I need is the other way
All I am is a lost soul, searchin’ All I have is today

in my vow to remove advertising and the msm from my life, making all the tvs in my home either gaming stations, music/movie enjoyment venues and general dust gatherers as I start using my library card a whole lot more, I remembered something I had forgotten. How that immersing yourself into joviality from another source, in my case Robert Earl Keen, can change your whole outlook long after that input is over. Its a tool "they" use on us all the time to sell us stuff we do not need. I know I used to sell water. I did the adds, I bought limbaugh time for gosh, sake, I knew who had the money and the motivation to buy water. I am still pretty angry, see? but after just a few minutes with my man, robert, I will be feeling much better. I am really trying to not use any of the negative emotions in the present. Any way thought this would be a good topic in survival, cause guys I think we are in the middle of it, surviving, I mean. thanks for all you have done for me in these pages. I will be reading alot more, here while I can.

Barb - glad to see you back. I can tell you from Ike that negative emotions don't enable one to survive. The whole experience became so intense that negativity was merely a waste of time. Feeling sorry for yourself didn't make the work of survival easier - it just made it more difficult. How to stay positive is a great topic for all of us. Robert Earl Keen, huh? Never woulda thunk it.
