Turn turn turning toward Peace And Joy

THIS COVER TUNE IS  EPIC...IT’S INSPIRED (even Biblical)  AND IT CAN LEAD TO  PEACE AND JOY

Every now and then you may  think...”didn’t I see that on another. Blog?”  Well yesterday I launched the “living the.... Rock n’ Roll philosophyBlog and this post appears there and here... why? Because I’m lazy?  No—efficient lol... and this fits in both places.  

So over the past. Few years, life has taught me the lesson and the wisdom in  the notion that every dream has its time.  Sometimes that is hard to accept or believe, however, it seems to play itself out that way and there is a song that  nails this sentiment so well.  

Now it would be  “correct” to note that  the version of the song that pops into my head is the  Byrds singing Turn, Turn, Turn.  The Byrds didn’t  write this song or falsely take credit.  Pete  Seeger “wrote it—well sort of... You can find it in the King James Bible, but King James didn’t write it either.  so we are left  with paying  Pete the royalties, however  the primary text is modified  pretty slightly. From  the Old Testiment Book of Ecclesiastes (more specifically Chapter 3 verses 1-8.  I was going to put a link to  the song below and most times I will, however there are so many versions done by so many artists  on YouTube that I’d just encourage you to  look it up and choose a performer you might be familiar with. 

While your are at it go ahead and look up “medicine for the People and listen to tune titled “manifesto”. It also has  some biblical overtones and a great final verse.  I’ll quote that. Here (or as I hear it).

“Don’t  Wastes your Hate

Rather. Gather and Create

Be of Service

Be a sensible person

Use your  voice and don’t be nervous

You can do this you’ve  got purpose

Find your medicine and use it.  

Okay... the big peace and joy take way. Is that events in life go up and down and drag you with them.  When you feel the movement, breathe and understand that  there is. Likely to be a balance point coming soon in life, if you are open to it.  Have faith in your spirit for it. Sill seek the balance you. Need and learn to accept it will show up in the  strangest ways and it too will have its season.  

Now it’s time for me to. Turn, Turn, Turn, the  page on. My writing.calendar.  May it be your time  to gather stones together and dance soon Peace!
