Today is a little something helpful from the Beatles...

Wishing you a day of being you in time!

“Human beings can withstand a week without water, two weeks without food, many years of homelessness, but not loneliness. It is the worst of all tortures, the worst of all sufferings.”
― Paulo Coelho

Today's antidote for loneliness comes in the form of a song...

Wishing you a day of being completely in tune!

Fly on, Superhero.
Fly on!

Today inspiration through song...

"Here Comes the Sun" was written by George Harrison in 1969 while he was playing hooky from the business of being a Beatle. Composed at the house of his friend Eric Clapton, the song reflects George's feelings toward the arrival of spring and embodies the enlightening quality of following one's heart.

"Here Comes the Sun" was written at the time when Apple was getting like school, where we had to go and be businessmen: 'Sign this' and 'sign that.' Anyway, it seems as if winter in England goes on forever, by the time spring comes you really deserve it. So one day I decided I was going to sag off Apple and I went over to Eric Clapton's house. The relief of not having to go see all those dopey accountants was wonderful, and I walked around the garden with one of Eric's acoustic guitars and wrote "Here Comes the Sun". - George Harrison

Here Comes The Sun, is a gentle and eloquent reminder that no matter how dark things may be, illumination is in the process of arising.

Wishing you a day of spontaneous warmth and clarity!

Today is about fear...

“Fear is the main source of superstition, and one of the main sources of cruelty.
To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom.”
— Bertrand Russell

Fear, like anything else in life, is an opportunity to learn more about ourselves. When we face our fear, we are accepting the invitation to become more intimate with ourselves, more honest.

Reflecting upon our fear, gives us a chance to understand and process our feelings and reactions to particular situations. Through self inquiry we may be able to identify the specific beliefs, opinions and experiences which underlie our fear. And, decide to let them go.

Facing fear is empowering, liberating and essential for our growth. In his inaugural speech, on Saturday, March 4, 1933, Franklin D. Roosevelt was quoted as saying, "So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is...fear itself — nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance."

What a wise thought-provoking statement.

Wishing you a day of enlightening encounters!

Today it's a duet...
"If I Needed You," written by Townes Van Zandt, was featured in
the 2012 Belgian drama "The Broken Circle Breakdown."
Enjoy!

Wishing you a day full of the light of love.

Fly on, Superhero.
Fly on!

LYRICS:
If I needed you
Would you come to me,
Would you come to me,
And ease my pain?
If you needed me
I would come to you
I'd swim the seas
For to ease your pain

In the night forlorn
The morning's born
And the morning shines
With the lights of love
You will miss sunrise
If you close your eyes
That would break
My heart in two

The lady's with me now
Since I showed her how
To lay her lily
Hand in mine
Loop and Lil agree
She's a sight to see
And a treasure for
The poor to find

Today is about being great...

Welcome to the weekend.
Enjoy this musical interlude by two talented musicians and fellow superheroes!

Wishing you a day of fantastic flights!

Fly on, Superhero.

LYRICS
Believe It or Not
by Joey Scarbury

Look at what's happened to me
I can't believe it myself
Suddenly I'm up on top of the world
It should have been somebody else

Believe it or not, I'm walkin' on air
I never thought I could feel so free
Flyin' away on a wing and a prayer
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me

Just like the light of a new day
It hit me from out of the blue
Breaking me out of the spell I was in
Making all of my wishes come true

Believe it or not, I'm walkin' on air
I never thought I could feel so free
Flyin' away on a wing and a prayer
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me

This is too good to be true
Look at me falling for you
Believe it or not, I'm walkin' on air
I never thought I could feel so free
Flyin' away on a wing and a prayer
Who could it be?
Believe it or…

Believe it or not, I'm walkin' on air
I never thought I could feel so free
Flyin' away on a wing and a prayer
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me

Believe it or not, I'm walkin' on air
I never thought I could feel so free
Flyin' away on a wing and a prayer
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me

Today's inspiration is a blast from the past.

"Sing" was written in 1971 by Joe Raposo for the children's television show Sesame Street, as its signature song. It gained popularity in 1973, when The Carpenters released it as their debut single from their album Now & Then.

Beautifully written and performed, this song is amazing empowering for the young and old, and everyone in between.

So, today, why not sing... sing your song... and let the world sing along.

Wishing you a day of love and good cheer!

Fly on, Superhero
Fly on.

LYRICS:
Sing.
Sing a song.
Sing out loud, sing out strong.
Sing of good things, not bad.
Sing of happy, not sad.
Sing.
Sing a song.
Make it simple to last your whole life long.
Don't worry that it's not good enough for anyone else to hear.
Just sing.
Sing a song.
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
La La La La La La
Sing. Sing a song.
Let the world.
Sing out loud.
Sing of love there, could be.
Sing for you and for me.
Sing a song.
Make it simple to last your whole life long.
Don't worry that it's not good enough for anyone else to hear.
Just sing, sing a song.
Written by Joe Raposo
Performed by The Carpenters

Today is about love …

“Can't we give ourselves one more chance?
Why can't we give love that one more chance?
Why can't we give love, give love, give love, give love …?”
- Queen & David Bowie

“Why can’t we give love?” is a remarkable question, with, billions upon billions of different answers. We could lump these responses together, under the heading of “pressures that no one asked for.” And, this may be true.

But, it may also be true to say that it is because we have allowed these “pressures” to separate us from humanity. To alienate us from ourselves and each other; and our compassion and forgiveness.

Though our conditions and situations differ, we all suffer pressure. We all experience fear and pain. Remembering this, will help us to act with compassion in the moment, when we encounter anger in ourselves and others. And, perhaps, allow us to extend forgiveness sometime thereafter.

Wishing you a day of unparalleled capacity!

Fly on, Superhero.

Under Pressure was released in October of 1981, almost 40 years ago. It is as relevant and true today, as it was then.

Under Pressure
-Queen, David Bowie

Mmm num ba de
Dum bum ba be
Doo buh dum ba beh beh

Pressure pushing down on me
Pressing down on you, no man ask for
Under pressure that burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets

Um ba ba be
Um ba ba be
De day da
Ee day da, that's okay

It's the terror of knowing what the world is about
Watching some good friends screaming
"Let me out!"
Pray tomorrow gets me higher
Pressure on people, people on streets

Day day de mm hm
Da da da ba ba
Okay
Chipping around, kick my brains around the floor
These are the days it never rains but it pours
Ee do ba be
Ee da ba ba ba
Um bo bo
Be lap
People on streets
Ee da de da de
People on streets
Ee da de da de da de da

It's the terror of knowing what the world is about
Watching some good friends screaming
'Let me out’
Pray tomorrow gets me higher, high
Pressure on people, people on streets

Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love but it's so slashed and torn
Why, why, why?
Love, love, love, love, love

Insanity laughs under pressure we're breaking
Can't we give ourselves one more chance?
Why can't we give love that one more chance?
Why can't we give love, give love, give love, give love
Give love, give love, give love, give love, give love?

'Cause love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the night
And love (people on streets) dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure
