the soft parade...

Successful hills are here to stay
Everything must be this way
Gentle streets where people play
Welcome to the Soft Parade

All our lives we sweat and save
Building for a shallow grave
Must be something else we say
Somehow to defend this place
Everything must be this way

Jim Morrison, "The Soft Parade

"gave it all away"...

there is life and there is death and in between there is the chaos of existence;

the choice is to keep what is important and that is the now...
