Maybe love is all anybody ever should believe in
Maybe life is just something that employs us till we die
Maybe all we know is that the sun will come up every morning
Maybe time can choose whether to be earthbound or to fly
everybody thinks they've got it down I won't worry,
the truth's always been found in your life story
Maybe you're the one waiting for the ship to find your harbor
Maybe you're the one looking past the forest to the trees
Maybe you still think the older that you get life just gets harder
Maybe you would trade everything for just one moment's peace Everybody strains to hear the sound of their heart's calling
Now you can write yours down it's your life story
Gather up your telegrams your faded pictures, best laid plans
Books and postcards, 45's every sunset in the sky
Carry with you maps and string, flashlights
Friends who make you sing And stars to help you find your place
music, hope and amazing grace
Maybe what we leave is nothing but a tangled little mystery
Maybe what we take Is nothing that has ever had a name
Maybe love will fade like the parchment pages of our history
Maybe life is made of flickers from some brilliant, burnished flame Everbody's waiting for a sign- I won't worry, I think we'll be just fine
In your life story It's your life story And my life story
This is our life story
~~~~~~~
Funny how your life story could be my life story
or her life story or his life story
but as MCC says, I think in time we'll just be fine.
~~~~~~~~
Lyrics by Mary Chapin Carpenter

Luz, I found a part of "my life story" in "your life story". I will try to explain it to you:
Regarding your blog-name I thought - oh, there is a woman perhaps 44 years old, changed her life or her opinions, began a new hobby .. and so on. Then I read your first blog-entry and I wasn't surprised. Congratulations! Luz, you don't believe it, but at the same time (August 2004) I had the same occurrence and anything is different since that time. Do you understand what I would like to say with my thoughts? Perhaps we have the same age and the same cause for a new job, too?? Hope you're sill happy with it!!
XOXOXO!!
:)))))))

...and of course, I listened to this song first and foremost from the CD!
Luz, you are too sweet!
Love ya.
:)
Kym.
