I walked into the living room today to an exasperated little boy.
With big eyes rolling upwards, Jordan told me, "I want Maddi to give me peace-ness and quietness."
Maddi defended herself and said, "Jordan didn't bade me!"
"Obeyed," I corrected.
Ah! The mere thought of "peace-ness" is a treat.
Life is filled with everything contrary.
Today a friend sent me a CD in the mail with a note that said, "When you listen to the song, I think you might feel like Shawn wrote that song for you and somebody else just happened to record it."
Just reading the words brought me a sense of peace-ness.
BE HERE NOW by Mason Jennings
Be here now, no other place to be
Or just sit there dreaming of how life would be
If we were somewhere better
Somewhere far away from all all worries
Well here we are
You are the love of my life
Be here now, no other place to be
All the doubts that linger, just set them free
And let good things happen
And let the future come into each moment
Like a rising sun
You are the love of my life
Yeah, you know you are
Sun comes up and we start again
It's all new today
All we have to say
Is be here now
Be here now, no other place to be
This whole world keeps changing, come change with me
Everything that's happened
All that's yet to come
Is here inside this moment
It's the only one
You are the love of my life
Yeah, you know you are
Sun comes up and we start again
It's all new today
All we have to say
Is be here now
