Rediscovered this track this year en route to New York City and a powerful catharsis took place. Can't really put it any better myself so I'll leave you to enjoy the song and all it's wisdom and beauty. Blessings and light to you all as we bid farewell to what, at least for me, has been an unrelentingly intense year of discovery, revelation, and personal evolution. I hope to write more about it all next year, when I've had a little time to recoup and gather some headspace. Wishing you the very best for the New Year's; may 2014 bring with it health, happiness, and much joy and laughter, as we each and every one of us continue our inexorable journey into light. 

Travel safe and talk soon.

"I am an ordinary human being, with weaknesses, some of them fundamental, and I have made many mistakes in my life. I am not a saint, unless you think of a saint as a sinner who keeps on trying." (1999)

"I was made, by the law, a criminal, not because of what I had done, but because of what I stood for, because of what I thought, because of my conscience." (1962)

"I have walked that long road to freedom. I have tried not to falter; I have made missteps along the way. But I have discovered the secret that after climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb. I have taken a moment here to rest, to steal a view of the glorious vista that surrounds me, to look back on the distance I have come. But I can rest only for a moment, for with freedom comes responsibilities, and I dare not linger, for my long walk is not yet ended." (1995)
