It will never be set to music, it will never be a “hit” except with me; and I'm still trying to do the right things right, rather than just doing the right things.
So here are the lyrics – as far as I have gone…..
Do all the good you can
By all the means you can
In all the ways you can
In all the places you can
At all the times you can
To all the people you can
As long as ever you can
Maybe there are more lyrics, I don’t know; but these resonate with me and always have done. And for me, at the moment, they are sufficient.
What’s your song like?
Until next time (and still singing),

This is wonderful stuff, P.S. I have never, ever read someone's philosophy expressed so clearly and in such detail in such a short space. This deserves to be circulated as widely as possible and I shall do that throughout the school and the community. Brilliant and thanks.
ReplyDeleteHi, Anonymous and thanks for the words. My "song" has taken a long time to distil and ferment (like wine?) but I am happy with it as it is at the moment. P.S.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! There's no need for complicated lyrics, with multiple meanings basically saying nothing. I wish it were a "hit"!

Lucana thanks for your comment. I must admit it took me a long time to write such a small blog - and 70 years for the thoughts to crystallise!!!
