Its a Wonderful Life....

......by Black.

This is one of my favourite songs - always has been since the 80's.

Even more so now I'm older, wiser and a little frayed around the edges. It simply says to me that whatever shit life and people throw at you you can look past it and still appreciate being alive.

It takes me back to a time when life was simpler, the world seemed "cleaner" and the future was all ahead of me.

Carpe Diem. 

Seize the day, and don't let the bastard grind ya down...!

I guess that if you take the essence of what makes you happy, write out/off those things that make you sad and build a life from what you value - rather than make the best of what is presented to you - it is possible to achieve a greater level of happiness than perhaps you think possible...

I think I will give it a go.
