I am Content – From my FB Notes from 4/20/2009

A song I thought about today while walking in Liberty Park. I was thinking about a song I am wanting to write about being… about being whole, complete, happy, beautiful and content once we drop the facade and become the authentic being we truly are… (when heart, mind, and soul are in unison)…. very positive and affirming.

The song I thought about today… that came to me while thinking of my song is my favorite that Pete Townsend (The Who) ever recorded. It is based on a poem by Maud Kennedy. You can find it on Townsend’s”Who Came First” album. Here are the lyrics:

Content

I am ready to learn and grow
I am alone with the truth
I am brave what is there to fear
I am strong, God supports me
I am patient, each moment of eternity
I am able to help when necessary
I am happy singing in the arms of God

I am balanced, keeping mind and heart equal
I am complete when I forget myself
I am receptive to each message of love
I am responsive to all that lives
I am happy singing in the arms of God

Enough, I am content
I am content
