ROBERT PLANT
"Big Log"

My love is in league with the freeway
Its passion will ride, as the cities fly by
And the tail-lights dissolve, in the coming of night
And the questions in thousands take flight
My love is a-miles in the waiting
The eyes that just stare, and the glance at the clock
And the secret that burns, and the pain that grows dark
And it's you once again

Leading me on - leading me down the road
Driving beyond - driving me down the road

My love is exceedingly vivid
Red-eyed and fevered with the hum of the miles
Distance and longing, my thoughts do provide
Should I rest for a while at the side
Your love is cradled in knowing
Eyes in the mirror, still expecting they'll come
Sensing too well when the journey is done
There is no turning back - no
There is no turning back - on the run

My love is in league with the freeway
Oh the freeway, and the coming of night-time
My love is in league with the freeway Reply to this

PEACE:
It does not mean to be in a place
Where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work
It means to be in the midst of these things,
and still be calm in your heart.

No one can better bask in summer's balm than those who have endured winter's bite. Similarly, it is those who have suffered through life's darkest hours who are able to truly savor the bright dawn of happiness. The person who has transformed the worst of fate into the best of fortune is life's champion.

THE WORLD IS A BOOK, AND THOSE WHO DO NOT TRAVEL READ ONLY ONE PAGE

Quote from a hostel in San Jose Costa Rica

It's not the destinations, it's the journey



Maybe when the door of happiness closes, another one opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one that has opened for us.

The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you can't go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches]

Those who wander are not necessarily lost. JRR Tolkien

Tourists don't know where they have been. Travellers don't know where they are going. Paul Theroux

By the way, it was Lewis Caroll the one who said "if you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there"...but yours is a good version anyway, haha!!! Reply to this
