Shine A Light

i'm taking a pause from a very groovy beginning to my 2008 to say what's going through my mind at the moment. it's funny, i keep thinking that i need to wait for "stuff" to happen before writing in here. truth is, "stuff" is always happening.

for example, i had a friend in town this weekend. turns out this person was wild and crazy about The Rolling Stones. i never was. i saw them in 1987, ironically, on the steal wheels tour, with my 2 friends lisa and kelli, and kelli's SUPER cool dad. wow~ did we feel cool! was that really twenty years ago? no. it was twenty ONE years ago. that's absurd.

anyways, besides that, and the "regular" Rolling Stones music, i really didn't care that much about it.

that said, i got a little lesson this past weekend. i was brushing up on that lesson tonight, listening to Exile on Main Street, and thought, wow, the lyrics to Shine A Light are really sweet. So, I googled them. and what came up was the Martin Scorcese film trailer that i had seen a couple months ago. it looked great at the time i saw the trailer, and i forgot about it til just now. looks pretty cool, esp the HD part.

so, if you've made it this far in this little sesh of my writing, i'll add one last thing, this little snippet from the song, shine a light, and it is my wish for anyone reading this...especially (mostly) the second line:

May the good lord shine a light on you
Make every song you sing your favourite tune
May the good lord shine a light on you
Warm like the evening sun
