Metal & Steel

I have a new love. His name is Bob Schneider.

This singer/songwriter is swiftly shooting up in the ranks of my music loves and coming in a close second to my fave Band, Blue October.

He is a poet. with an incredible voice. I often wake up singing one of his songs in my head.

Bob and Blue October - both Texas talent...coincidence? nah...

I almost fell out of my chair when I found this live version today...because there is a cello! (you know how much I love the cello, right?) Have a listen:

METAL & STEEL

Prompt #73: Now, I want to hear (read) your interpretation of this song. if you need the lyrics you can read them HERE.

Wings.

Sometimes...we all need to be reminded that we are something more.  

When the day to day bogs us down, and we feel like we are doing little more than muddling through, we just need someone to tell us that we Shine! That we are something greater, something better, something incredible. 

I've got a mountain to climb before i get over this hill

I've got a world to unwind before i ever sit still
I've got a hard row to hoe before my seed is sown
I've got a long way to get before i get back home 
~ Bob Schneider

What will it take for you to dare to live the way your soul craves… ~ Big Sparkly Life

We all have big dreams and aspirations. Sometimes, we follow through, and sometimes we let things slide. 

For me, there are certain dreams that keep coming back, and I wonder, "huh. why haven't I done that yet?" 

I don't want to miss out on the things I've always wanted. It's time for me to really dare...really do...really go after my goals. 

I mean, really, why wait? 

That's not to say I haven't done a lot of the things I've wanted to do, just that there is still so much more I want! and I want to do it all! does that make me greedy?

I'm the gold in the sunset and diamonds on the sea... ~ Bob Schneider
