• Tears and fears and feeling proud
  To say I love you, right out loud
  Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
  I've looked at life that way.
  But now old friends are acting strange
  They shake their heads, they say I've changed
  Something's lost, but something's gained
  In living every day
  I've looked at life from both sides now
  From win and lose, and still somehow
  It's life's illusions I recall
  I really don't know life at all

  Joni Mitchell

• The rocks are where they are- and this is their will. The rivers flow- and this is their will. The birds fly- this is their will. Human beings talk- this is their will. The seasons change, heaven sends down rain or snow, the earth occasionally shakes, the waves roll, the stars shine- each of them follows its own will. To be is to will and so is to become.
