Long you live and high you fly

This was a really tough week for me, some important decisions to make -- and decisions, in my case, are always hard to make! It was when yesterday evening I was talking to a friend about 30s' resolutions and remembered some of mine -- they included not stressing too much about things (and not waiting for bad things to happen to realise how relative problems are).
As I'm listening to Pink Floyd a lot lately (and the more you know it the more you like it), I found this beautiful piece that I find worth sharing with you, here it goes.

Breathe
(Waters, Gilmour, Wright)

Breathe, breathe in the air.
Don't be afraid to care.
Leave but don't leave me.
Look around and choose your own ground.

Long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be.

Run, rabbit run.
Dig that hole, forget the sun,
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down it's time to dig another one.

For long you live and high you fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race towards an early grave.

Pink Floyd is a band that always make sense, no matter how messy or hard things come. I also recommend a song from the album "A Momentary Lapse of Reason" called Learning to fly.

I think it fits your moment.

Rise and shine.
