Guten Morgen, Freunde! Every day is an opportunity for another little love story. Fall in love even more with the person you love, fall in love with the trees and the dirt, fall in love with air you breathe and the little tiny dogs you see walking in the street. Life is often hard, but I’ve said before: You don’t need to harden yourself to match it. Find peace in acceptance of yourself and all things. Find love in your heart where you thought it had left. Be softer and kinder to yourself and those around you. Never give up. The World won’t. Why should you?
It’s A Helluva Lot
Spending months away at sea
Leaving just the baby and she
Thinking to myself about the way they miss me
Hoping happy she will be
Coming home to see her eyes
Reflecting deep blue skies
And her love I need not prise
For with her I won’t capsize
Stepping from the boat and holding her
Hearing the machines choke and whir
And i can say with confidence she’s better than pictures
Sitting at the foot of the bed
Knowing that someday we’ll be wed
Thinking of the life we have ahead
I’ll one day leave this ship and be with her instead
I’ll give up being a sailor and be the one she counts on
I’ll wake up every morning to her smile with the dawn
Knowing when the time comes that i won’t again be gone
