I like to listen to music...and I always listen to all aspects of songs, from thee bass line to how the melody is put together, to the lyrics... Someone once toldme something about music being the greatest of the arts. I still thinks thats true... today, sitting here in the office, I am listening to my somewhat large mp3 collection and a song comes up that ALWAYS reminds me of the Fraternity. Funny how certain songs can remind you of people or places or things... It's a song by Celine Dion called "thats the way it is". But it always reminds me of the fraternity and the struggles brothers go through to deal with band, school, friends..and putting it all together. Kinda reminds me of lessons that we are supposed to learn in our rituals...
I can read your mind
And I know your story
I see what you're going through, yeah
It's an uphill climb
And I'm feeling sorry
But I know it will come to you, yeah
Don't surrender
'cause you can win
In this thing called love
When you want it the most
There's no easy way out
When you're ready to go
And your heart's left in doubt
Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
And that's the way it is
When you question me
For a simple answer
I don't know what to say, no
But it's plain to see
If you stick together
You're gonna find the way, yeah
So don't surrender
'Cause you can win
In this thing called love
When you want it the most
There's no easy way out
When you're ready to go
And your heart's left in doubt
Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
And that's the way it is
That's the way it is
When life is empty
With no tomorrow
And loneliness starts to call
Baby don't worry
Forget your sorrow
'Cause love's gonna conquer it all... all
When you want it the most
There's no easy way out
When you're ready to go
And your heart's left in doubt
Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
(And that's the way it is
When you want it the most
There's no easy way out
When you're ready to go
And your hearts left to doubt)
Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
And that's the way it is
That's the way it is
That's the way it is
Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
And that's the way it is
all i have to say is that the brothers should take these times to heart. As I say to them every year, this will all be over before you know it. and all the bickering will seem so damn silly. And you will be sitting at a job somewhere wishing you could just have the carefree time to worry about who is saying what about you, because you will see that the time you actually had to spend with your brothers and friends was way too short, and perhaps...way too wasted.
