Today I'm enjoying Lamb's Fear of Fours and especially Little Things:
There's so many things that we miss in our everyday lives
We're so busy hustling, bustling chasing far away dreams
We forget the little things
Like blue skies, green eyes and our babies growing
Like rainbows, fresh snow and the smell of summer
We forget to live.
Give us eyes like children so we live each day as others
We're so sure we know so much that we forget to listen
Then we wander freckle faced
Like cheap thrills bad spill and constant consumption
Like TV, CDs and cars that speak our names
We forget to live.
I wanted to translate those words into a talk for tomorrow's assembly on 'Choices' ... but it was either too obvious or too much like hard work, so instead I'm chillin' and they're getting a John Bell Meditation instead. Which will be equally edifying if not quite so drum'n'bass.
