Touched my soulI have decided that from time to time, I'm going to include some song lyrics on my blog. So, I'm going to list some lyrics and what they mean to me.
There's a fine line between deep introspective reflection and pretentious copying, I'm going to try to stay on the good side of that line.
Today's entry is from Feeling Good by Nina Simone
"Stars, when you shine, you know how I feel. Scent of the pine, you know how I feel. Oh, freedom is mine and I know how I feel. It's a new dawn. It's a new day. It's a new life, for me."
To me, this is an expression of the incredible joy that one finds as a result of finding his or her true purpose in life.
Nina's voice brings a haunting beauty to the words as she sings them.
