Choice part 5

Posted by Dave at 10:07 PM on July 01, 2009

It occured to me (again) that music is such an important tool of expression for us in so many ways.  But it is also a powerful tool to REMIND us of how powerful we are.  Here are the words to a wonderful song called "Sweepin' The Clouds Away" written by Sam Coslow in 1930.  I feel the message of the song - essentially that joy or sorrow is up to us to choose - is the wisdom of the ages.  See what you think:


Don't go round mopin' hopin' happiness will come.

That's not the way.  It doesn't pay.

It you want happiness, then help yourself to some.

Why don't you try to

Take life the way I do.


I don't care what's down below

Let it rain, let it snow.

I'll be up on a rainbow, sweepin' the clouds away.


Let' the whole world sigh or cry

I'll be high

in the sky

Up on top of a rainbow

sweepin' the clouds away.


I have learned life's lesson-

The fighters who always win

are those who can take it right on the chin

and grin


And so I shout to everyone

find your place in the sun

High on top of a rainbow

sweepin' the clouds away.


And to help you sweep the clouds away, please watch part 5 of Louise Hays presentation of "You Can Heal Your Life" and share your thoughts with us.
