Don't stop til you get enough. . .

Keep on with the force don't stop. . . 

 Lovely is the feeling now
Fever temperatures rising now
Power ah power
is the force the vow
That makes it happen
It asks no questions why ooh
So get closer closer now
To my body now
Just love me
Till you don't know how ooh

I grew up on this song.
Granted I was only two years old when it was released but it is one of the few songs that has traveled with me throughout my life.  There are quite a few memories wrapped up in this song and the nostalgia has been a faithful friend when people have come and gone from my life - whether they wanted to leave or not.  I think this is the power of music and the force that it can have in your life.  What are some of the lovely feelings that you continue to hold onto in your own life?
Whether we chose to learn about dance music in clubs or events that played dance music, you can't go past the idea of feeling good and expressing yourself freely through dance.  I think this is probably why I appreciate dance so much in its various expressions, and why I love to dance whenever I get the chance.  Have you ever been close enough to someone that you don't know how to how to get any closer?  Or know how to be anymore in love?  Those are the lovely feelings that we should never forget.

 Keep on 
with the force don't stop
Don't stop til you get enough
Keep on 
with the force don't stop
Don't stop til you get enough
Keep on 
with the force don't stop
Don't stop til you get enough
Keep on 
with the force don't stop
Don't stop til you get enough

 What is the driving force that you shouldn't let stop in your life?
Is it yourself?  Is it other around you?  Is it something invisible that you can't see but know is there?
Fear helps to uncover the force that is within you, that innate sense of self that galvanises into an unwavering sense of self belief.  It is devoid of arrogance and ignorance, but is more so wrapped up in an innocent and overflowing joy that shows itself to be contagious and infectious.  It is your inner energy that people find hard to be away from, that people crave to be around, because quite frankly, you don't know any other way to be.  If you are constantly doubting yourself and your heaven sent abilities, it's actually time to stop engaging in that.  You might be thinking, it's too hard to be positive because there is so much negative that surrounds you.  That only lasts for a little while, and only so much as you give your energy to it.  Instead, focus on positive solutions and chip away by working hard on things that you can do to change your situation.

Touch me and I feel on fire
Ain't nothing like a love desire
Hoo I'm melting I'm melting
like hot candle wax
Sensation ah sensation
lovely where we're at ooh
So let love
take us through the hours
I won't be complaining aw
Cause this love is power ooh

I'm not sure whether it's because the lyrics of this song were just so hard to learn as a young child, or whether Michael's vocals being so high that just made the lyrics indecipherable too, but the combination made it definitely harder!  When was the last time that you melted like hot candle wax? Was it under some pressure that you didn't anticipate being under?  A situation that allowed you to step up and just completely forget everything you had ever thought or believed in?  We should no longer be complaining about what we see around us that brings us down.  Instead focus on bringing the change that we want, being the change that we want.

 Keep on 
with the force don't stop
Don't stop til you get enough
Keep on 
with the force don't stop
Don't stop til you get enough
Keep on 
with the force don't stop
Don't stop til you get enough
Keep on 
with the force don't stop
Don't stop til you get enough

 I hope that you don't stop til you get enough.
There should never be any times that you stop because someone told you that you should, especially if you were told to stop honouring your gifts, talents or your calling that was made with you in mind.
That insatiable feeling that you have is something that might never go away, but if the passion that you have to fulfil whatever quest or mission that you find yourself on leads you onto discover bigger dreams, then why deny yourself?  We should only bear in mind, that if we have so much love and power within us that is given to us from above, then there's only thing for it.  I don't know about you, but it totally makes perfect sense to me to just keep on with the force don't stop. . .

God provides. . .

There's no more need to fight. . .  God provides, so why do I worry about my life When you come to my rescue a thousand times Every other voice it is a lie God provides It is easy to worry about your life.  It's what humans are built to do. We worry about so many things.  What people think of us.  How we act towards said people.  We worry about things that we cannot control, things we cannot hold.  We spend far too much time worrying about things that we shouldn't be worrying about.  When we think that nothing can come from anything, that's when God provides, above all else.  How many times have you been rescued?  Did you ask to be rescued?  Did you ask to be placed in those situations that required God to step in and save you?  Maybe yes.  Maybe no.  But one thing that I've come to know is that God has never lead me to a place that I couldn't get through, that I couldn't understand why I was lead there, that I di...

Closer. . .

I was cruising down the street with my head in the sky Going nowhere fast trying to stay high oh, oh Windows down my arms are waving Oh Lord I can't feel ma face no no, no no, aye, Sister please won't you sing for me Sing a song to set us free, free Brother please won't you sing for me Sing a song to set us free, free The original version of this song is upbeat. I prefer this acoustic version as it resonates more with me, something about it going deep down in my soul (or it could just be the piano accompaniment). We might think we are heading nowhere fast because we keep comparing ourselves to our peers, our contemporaries and the timeline that we set for ourselves to complete all of our dreams and goals. We forget that life happens and things outside of our control, start to take control - and this is where the real work begins within ourselves - whether we have the right support systems of brothers and sisters to sing us songs of freedom - what can we collectively do toge...

I smile. . .

You look so much better when you. . .  I dedicate this song to recession Depression and unemployment This song's for you When you think about songs that have dedications at the beginning during the introduction, how does it contribute to the song?  I often think about how those dedications speak to my own situation.  We may all be going through some trials at the moment and nobody around us is none the wiser.  I've often spoken about it to friends when we do that usual - how are you?  The expected answer is - I'm good. But really we're not.  Why do we do that to ourselves?  We don't want to burden others with our problems or issues. Sometimes the flip side might be true and you have friends who dump their problems and issues onto you, but don't reciprocate.  I hope people get to know you and what you're about.  They need to see that they might be potentially ruining the friendship or connection by doing that. Today's a new day but th...
