WISH YOU WERE HERE

WISH YOU WERE HERE   (Lyrics to Pink Floyd song)

“So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
Blue sky’s from pain.
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We’re just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
And how we found
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.”

A BEST FRIEND

FRIENDLY ADVICEThe older my body gets (almost 70) I become more aware of the ancient adage: “Life is short”.  Indeed, it seems so.  What is a single lifetime in the order of the cosmos?  Less than a blink of an eye .  Through eternity there is only one companion, as far as I know.  Yourself.  If we find being alone difficult, without friends, we may have a very long time to endure existence without others to keep us distracted from ourselves in the “great beyond”, whatever that may be.  So, being our own best friend makes good sense.
