I will not repeat the lyrics here, and sorry for lapsing into a reflective, Johan-like state (

), but I reckon that these words do hold a lot of wisdom, in terms of accepting all parts of life equally.

To those not in the know, it is a song by the Byrds from the 1960s. Fairly hippy sentiments from me, which is surprising, but the words and meanings honestly click with me.

Actually, it is a Psalm from the Bible (I think) and some words added and then put to music. I'll have to look it up.

Simon, try listening to some Tom Petty. Very mellow stuff, but very groovy also!!!

Actually, it is taken from the book of Ecclesiasties in the Bible. An extremely interesting read, actually. Very philosophical, very depressing at times, full of hard questions about the meaning of life.

a very cool song, yes.
