It’s A Good Life If We Don’t Weaken

What are the most important things needed to live a good life?

The following are lyrics from a song of the very same name by the Tragically Hip. this version is from the Canadian musical awards, where Leslie Feist sings, in place of Gordon Downey, who passed away a few years back from brain cancer. It’s a beautiful piece of music and I think we all need a beautiful piece of music in our life.

When the colour of the night

And all the smoke in one life

Gives way to shaky movements

And improvisational skills

In a forest of whispering speakers

Let′s swear that we will

Get with the times

In a current health to stay

And let′s get friendship right

Get life day-to-day

In the forget-your-skates dream

Full of countervailing woes

As diverse as ever scenes

Proceeding on a need-to-know

In a face so full of meaning

As to almost make it glow

And go someplace where we are needed.
