Kindred Spirits
Dedicated to The Brave, the Adventurers, the Dreamers.
Shrieking in my ear,
Calling from within,
Nothing can stop it,
Nothing can shake it
Unless I heed it –
It calls from the valleys,
It calls from the mountains,
It calls from the turbulent seas,
It comes from deep inside of me--
Some say it is the call of the wild,
but to me it is the call to be free.
--s. van schaick (song lyrics-copyright)
Life is not just existence, it is the the striving to exist, and the appreciation of this.
-s. van schaick
“You do not need to know precisely what is happening, or exactly where it is all going. What you need is to recognize the possibilities and challenges offered by the present moment, and to embrace them with courage, faith and hope.”--Thomas Merton
"The Impossible Dream"
from MAN OF LA MANCHA (1972)
music by Mitch Leigh and lyrics by Joe Darion
To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not goTo right the unrightable wrong
To love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far
To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march into Hell
For a heavenly cause
And I know if I'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest
And the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star
Every renaissance comes to the world with a cry, the cry of the human spirit to be free.-- Anne Sullivan
