Follow Me Where I Go....

Drafted 12 November

A tribute to Mary.  
I graduated from High School in 1961
She sang the true tunes of my life.

I have followed me everywhere I have ever been.

Listening to the multi dimensional music of Michio Kaku this morning I heard the link in my mind and its meaning in my heart.  A tune that I would choose as the most beautiful in a beauty contest.  The tune I would most wish to play and sing to the one I loved.  The tune I feared I would never find the one to sing it to so purely to join me in a duet..sung to each other in tune,  in absolute clarity.  Life is a search for something as beautiful as that....fulfillment...happiness. ...beyond that a better word...shared bliss.

Maybe the fear is to sing that song and the response would be that I can't carry a tune nor sing at all.  Fear is a challenge.  The greatest fear is to never try to sing it.

It all depends on how I frame life and love and the search for both or are they one.

Until this morning the song of life and love has been a good one heard and appreciated by those I have loved.   That tune to me was Both Sides Now...until now.    The first time I heard it was 1969.  The year I came back from Vietnam.  

What precedes a Paradigm Shift that I have written so much about in this blog?  While a paradigm shift is instant change in the perception of the same thing it is also a function a long time coming....from somewhere.  A stealth approach.

I went deep to find myself in the Energy Lab.  Shake hands with my validated true self and resolve forever the fear of what might be at the core of my being but never was.  After the race I had my only flashback to Vietnam.
Age 50 and everyone was there in Kona with me.

The love I was always seeking I have found.

I did my best to express it to others.

Life is not a dress Rehearsal.

It is a reality show.

Get on stage and give it the best you've got.


Lyrics


It's by far the hardest thing I've ever done,
To be so in love with you and so alone
Follow me where I go, what I do, and who I know
Make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down, all the way and all around
Take my hand and I will follow too
It's long been on my mind, you know it's been a long long time
I'll try to find the way that I can make you understand
The way I feel about you and just how much I need you
To be there where I can talk to you when there's no one else around
Follow me where I go, what I do, and who I know
Make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down, all the way and all around
Take my hand and I will follow too
You see I like to share my life with you
and show you things I've seen
Places where I'm going to, places where I've been
To have you there beside me and never be alone
And all the time that you're with me, then we will be at home
Follow me where I go, what I do, and who I know
Make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down, all the way and all around
Take my hand and I will follow too.

Songwriters: John Denver

The last line says it is not all about following me.
It is really all about me totally following you too.
