“Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free

Blackbird fly, blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night

Blackbird fly, blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.”

Oh! With absolute certainty, “Blackbird” is my favorite song. What a soothing sound to the ears! This song is me, and it fills me with pure happiness and song-sung joy. This song tells the natural beauty that life has to offer- what surrounds me, what resonates with me, what fills the air: love, joy, and happiness. It makes me fly away and explore the lovely life given to me. Fifteen minutes from where I reside- Laguna Beach- I drive to my little getaway every Wednesday at six in the morning: Pier del Teatro. With the endless sea in front of me, I play my guitar, and with no people near, I close my eyes and sing at the top of my lungs. A pleasing serenity holds my entire soul and slowly kisses my gentle heart. The chorus comes and I fly, fly like the birds, and I find the light that brings me to tranquility. I smell the nature with delight; I feel the ocean current approach me; I feel the presence of the Almighty who created this spectacle in front of me, the breath of the All-loving who carries us to perpetual bliss. My heart, my guitar, and the ocean, all flow to the same beat, melody, and rhythm; we are one. Together forever.

I live for the present moment. And in this moment, I am infinite. Enjoy it. Because it’s happening. Every day is a gift; every day is a new day promising new discoveries. It’s up to you to find them. I am in between dreams, and I am in good spirits.
