People say that what we’re seeking is a meaning for life.
I don’t think that’s what we’re really seeking.
I think that what we’re seeking is an experience of being alive,
so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive.~Joseph Campbell~
The words below, have been my “pick me up” for a very long time. Not only do they lift up my mood but also my spirit. I am instantly in another parallel world where all is just simply beautiful. When you read or hear them you will know too. These words describe what I exactly feel is the RAPTURE of BEING ALIVE as Campbell above states it so beautifully
Lyrics to “I’m Alive” by Celine Dion
Mmmmm … Mmmmm …
I get wings to fly
Oh, oh … I’m alive … Yeah
When you call on me
When I hear you breathe
I get wings to fly
I feel that I’m alive
When you look at me
I can touch the sky
I know that I’m alive
When you bless the day
I just drift away
All my worries die
I’m glad that I’m alive
You’ve set my heart on fire
Filled me with love
Made me a woman on clouds above
I couldn’t get much higher
My spirit takes flight
‘Cause I am alive
When you call on me
(When you call on me)
When I hear you breathe
(When I hear you breathe)
I get wings to fly
I feel that I’m alive
(I am alive)
When you reach for me
(When you reach for me)
Raising spirits high
God knows that…
That I’ll be the one
Standing by through good and through trying times
And it’s only begun
I can’t wait for the rest of my life
When you call on me
(When you call on me)
When you reach for me
(When you reach for me)
I get wings to fly
I feel that…
When you bless the day
(When you bless, you bless the day)
I just drift away
(I just drift away)
All my worries die
I know that I’m alive
I get wings to fly
God knows that I’m alive
What does “Being Alive” mean to you?
