Your own kind of music

While out running my favorite trail in 46 degrees and sunny, I was listening to an album, "Mamas and Papas, the Millennium  Collection: The Best Of the Mamas and the Papas"  and was inspired by one song in particular.   The song is "Make Your Own Kind of Music".   I do find music from my past and present inspiring.  I was just starting the last mile of 4.75 today, and the words got me through it, in a very positive way.  The words struck me.  It may mean different things to different people.  To me it means to keep on doing what you feel you need to do, your way, no matter what anyone else thinks.  I want to share with you.  Celebrate your special song today!  Be happy.  It is as important to your health and well being as a good work out in the fresh air.   This is one great song to run to!

Make Your Own Kind of Music

Nobody can tell you,  theres only one song worth singing, 

Though they may try and sell you~

cause it hangs them up,  to see someone like you

but you gotta make your own kind of music 

sing your own special song

make your kind of music 

even if nobody else sings along

you're gonna be no where,  the loneliest kind of lonely, 

it may be rough going, 

just to do your thing is the hardest thing to do 

but you gotta make your own kind of music 

sing your own special song

make your own kind of music

even if nobody else sings along. 

So if you cannot take my hand

and if you must be going 

I will understand

you gotta make your own kind of music

sing your own special song

make your own kinda music even if nobody else sings along.
