The Journey

Half the world is sleeping,
half the world's awake.
half can hear their hearts beat,
half just hear them break.

I am but a traveler, in most every way
Ask me what you want to know.

What a journey it has been and the end is not in sight.
But the stars are out tonight, and they're bound to guide my way.

When they're shining on my life, I can see a better day.
I won't let the darkness in.
What a journey it has been …

I have been to sorrow,
I have been to bliss.
Where I'll be tomorrow, I can only guess.

Through the darkest desert
Through the deepest snow,
Forward always forward, I go..

What a journey it has been and the end is not in sight.
But the stars are out tonight, and they're bound to guide my way.

When they're shining on my life, I can see a better day.
I won't let the darkness in.
What a journey it has been …

Forward, always forward...
Onward, always up...
Catching every drop of hope in my empty cup.

What a journey it has been and the end is not in sight.
But the stars are out tonight, and they're bound to guide my way.

When they're shining on my life, I can see a better day.
I won't let the darkness in.
What a journey it has been …

What a journey it has been ....

Relationships - Still Ordering

A shop owner accidentally over-heard one of the shop assistants telling a customer, "No Ma'am, It has been weeks and it seems that we will have to wait longer until it comes."
Upset of what he heard, he chased the customer who was walking out of the store and told her, "It is quite untrue Ma'am, of course we are going to get it real soon. We ordered for it few weeks ago."

He went back to the shop assistant angrily and said, "Never, and I mean never, tell a customer that we do not have thing or things they are looking for. If we do not have it, say that we have ordered for it and the package is on the way."
Assured that he was understood, he asked, "What did she asked for?"

The shop assistant replied, "Rain."


Communication is essential to any relationships and it involves more listening and understanding than talking.
