This video / song really got to me, for some reason today, and in combination with my desire to change myself and others, against perhaps wisdom and truth, I thought it might help someone else see things slightly differently, better, or perhaps even in a much more peaceful, happy, far-looking  perspective / vision / perception. In any case, I am very glad indeed that I found this song (thanks to Last.fm radio!). I hope everyone in the world has a peaceful, loving, and free weekend, year ahead, and beyond!

“You find yourself alone, sometimes Without a home, no protection You don’t know which way to go You’re lost, no direction Suddenly, out of the blue Some kind of magic comes to you You don’t know how, you don’t know why But someday, gonna take off, fly (wish, make a wish) My wish would be…To be free To be wild And to… be Just like a child And if I get lost I really don’t mind Cos I’m me Doing just fine You’re out in the cold, sometimes As far as you can see, misty And you want to run, into the sun The road is lost, sandshifty (then) Suddenly, out of the blue Some kind of magic pushes you through You don’t know when, how or why But someday, gonna take off and fly And if I had a wish, my wish would be…To be free To be wild And to be Just like a child And if I get lost I really don’t mind Cos I’m me Doing just fine To be free To be wild And to be Just like a child And if I get lost I really don’t mind Cos I’m me Doing just fine To be free To be wild And to be Just like a child And if I get lost I really don’t mind Cos I’m me Doing just fine Just like a child”

The Fool, Beginning, Adventure, Hero, Self Becoming

Dream Of Star Raven Fantasy Empress Lover

Begin Always Again And Again And Again

Tears fall like rain, sweet

Breaking the bonds that separate

Imagine peace and an end to violence

Peace in your minds, on earth, in your houses

Love and giving always to your secret inner Self

Swimming in the seas of dreams and oceans of future

Saved from drowning when you most need help

Men and women on a boat that sail across worlds

A great ship that can go where men alone cannot

We catch a leviathan of the deep

It is almost too horrible to look at

To see it is to despair

And yet my friends are still in the sea

And who knows how many more monsters are there

Primordial, ancient, terrible to behold

And the one we caught was already dead

I remember the hill where we played

The bus where I broke the rubber bands

A wilderness, a forest, a river, a path, journeys

You and the others, my friends and family

I danced and floated away, you sang my name

Onward toward the sea, my destiny

I leave you, and you are still in the cold water

It is almost as if you were never here at all

Yet I still feel the phantoms of your presence

Some more people I know remained behind below

In the dark waters among the ancient ones

I felt bad for leaving you most of all, my love

But when I saw the rope I grabbed on

The strange elder ones in human form pulled me to safety

To help raise the other monsters and people from the sea

We are all related to one another, by ancestry and origin

United by the memory of ocean and the promise of sky

Happy to be alive and desirous of one another’s company

Endeavor always to change ourselves and others

A difficult task requiring much effort, grace, art

Working as a fisherman in the cosmic ocean

Writing and knowing the true and beautiful

As well as I can, remember my dreams

Try to create some kind of meaning

Always growing, changing, learning, becoming

In the midst of being, time, evolution

Revolution of the mind, psyche, society

How can I hope to change the world?

Why would I dare to question nature?

Who am I and where am I going?

What can I do to help humanity renew?

When will be the time when I can change?

How can I dream while still awake?

Are the paths and journeys only my creative imagination?

Each and every day that passes

I change and yet always remain

In love, with life, living, and dreaming

Visions of the future that may be

Where, when, and how we can be

Together, free, peaceful, disarmed, loving

I remember we are part and parcel

We belong to the earth, sky, and water

Mother and father, rich and poor, everyone

In every case and in every situation

In every problem and possibility

In every way and path I travel, I think of you

Creative rebel goddess, dear lovely star raven

I’m really glad that I discovered Mike Oldfield. This next video seems like a good end to this post. Good night / day, and good luck! Peace! 🙂 ❤
