the O of life

from the day we arrive on this planet
and blinking, step into the sun
there is more to see than can ever be seen
more to do than can ever be done

there is far too much to take in here
more to find than can ever be found
but the sun rolling high
through the sapphire sky
keeps great and small on the endless round

it's the circle of life
and it moves us all
through despair and hope
through faith and love
till we find our place
on the path unwinding
in the circle
the circle of life

recently i went to see the lion king broadway performance twice. for a while i was addicted to it, i couldn't help to put down the cd. all the spirit and energy the story holds and the artistic staging and costumes design put me in amazement. and the live singing was so alive that my spirit came out of me and danced wildly. how in the world could someone (s) think of this presentation? it's the paramount of performing art, no wonder why it is award winning.

i love the story, i love the music, and i love the african spirit. i love the chanting more than the parts in english. sometimes listening with the heart may ignite more inspiration or understanding than listening with the brain? haven't you experienced that?
