“You can’t base your life on other people’s expectations.”-Stevie Wonder
I wholeheartedly concur, Stevie. Trying to live up to someone else’s expectations is a recipe for disaster, as well as a huge waste of time. Life is way too short to worry about what anyone else thinks.
Happy Birthday, Stevie!
“You’ve got to create a dream. You’ve got to uphold the dream…”-Eric Burdon
It’s all about the dream. Without it, life is barely worth living…at least that’s what I think.
“Rock & Roll is not an age, it’s an attitude.”-Dave Mason
Indeed.
Happy Birthday, Dave!
“My heroes are the ones who survived doing it wrong, who made mistakes, but recovered from them.”-Bono
I’ve made more mistakes than I can count. My only hope is that I can learn from them and move forward.
Happy Birthday, Bono!
“I choose things by how they resonate in my heart.”-Rita Coolidge
I have always believed that is the absolute best way to make choices, Rita.
And listening to you sing certainly resonates in my heart.
Happy Birthday!
“Once you replace negative thoughts with positive ones, you’ll start having positive results”~Willie Nelson
How bout that simple brilliance from today’s birthday boy?
Love you, Willie!
“I have to get inspired by something that touches my soul, or rocks my soul.”-Steven Tyler
We all know what rocks our souls. As I see it, the great challenge in life is to keep our attention on whatever it is that rocks our souls.
When we do, we are naturally inspired. And that is a truly groovy way to go through life.
“I never saw music in terms of men and women or black and white. There was just cool and uncool.”-Bonnie Raitt
You and your music are definitely cool, Bonnie!
“Reggae music, soul music, rock music–every song is a sign.”-Bob Marley
Bob Marley’s songs were also incredible gifts.
Happy birthday, Bob. Say hi to Jimi and Janis and John…
“We want to get this good music to as many people as possible because I think it heals, it soothes, I think music is incredibly important, especially in today’s chaos.”~Graham Nash
Amen, birthday boy!
