Education Ride 365: A Reminder To Treasure This Headlong Ride!



27,020 miles covered since January 1, nearing the half-way point of 'Education Ride 365'---a journey of (personally) epic proportions---earlier today I became acquainted with some new music lyrics that seem the perfect reminder to me of the importance of savoring the moment and not losing sight of the glory of the headlong ride!

For me some days are hard, missing comforts of home,
but one day I'll "wish I could live it all again." 


A verity of life in general, eh?!



HEADLONG FLIGHT

Thinking back over my life, and telling stories about my "great adventures”— they didn’t always feel that grand at the time. But on balance, I wouldn’t change anything.  “I wish I could do it all again.”


All the journeys
Of this great adventure
It didn’t always feel that way
I wouldn’t trade them
Because I made them
The best I could
And that’s enough to say

Some days were dark
I wish that I could live it all again
Some nights were bright
I wish that I could live it all again

All the highlights of that headlong flight
Holding on with all my might
To what I felt back then
I wish that I could live it all again

I have stoked the fire on the big steel wheels
Steered the airships right across the stars
I learned to fight, I learned to love and learned to feel
Oh, I wish that I could live it all again

All the treasures
The gold and glory
It didn’t always feel that way
I don’t regret it
I never forget it
I wouldn’t trade tomorrow for today

I learned to fight and learned to love and learned to steal
I wish that I could live it all again

(RUSH, Headlong Flight, A Clockwork Of Angels, 2012)
