Moments are in windows

Those Windows are Windows of opportunity

 

To those of us with Parkinson’s.

“ON” times are gifts;

they are, Windows of opportunities. Allowing us to accomplish things during our day .”

I don’t know where I heard it

Don’t know who said it

But I remember when I heard it

How it made me look at how I utilized those “ windows of opportunity “ when they presented themselves to me.

I love how the word “ presented” was used.

Because this Parkie soon realizes how much of a present they are,

when they appear

Don’t be concerned about how others feel

But on how you feel when you get to use these gifts

In looking for a song.

This one appeared.

The lyrics are as strong as anything I could say

Have fun and be a warrior

Here’s hoping that you’ll be

Living in the moment

If this life is one act

Why do we lay all these traps?

We put them right in our path

When we just wanna be free

I will not waste my days

Making up all kinds of ways

To worry ’bout all the things

That will not happen to me

So I just let go of what I know I don’t know

And I know I’ll only do this by

Living in the moment

Living our life

Easy and breezy

With peace in my mind

With peace in my heart

Peace in my soul

Wherever I’m going, I’m already home

Living in the moment

I’m letting myself off the hook for things I’ve done

I let my past go past

And now I’m having more fun

I’m letting go of the thoughts

That do not make me strong

And I believe this way can be the same for everyone

And if I fall asleep

I know you’ll be the one who’ll always remind me

To live in the moment

To living my life

Easy and breezy

With peace in my mind

With peace in my heart

With peace in my soul

Wherever I’m going, I’m already home

I can’t walk through life facing backwards

I have tried

I’ve tried more than once to just make sure

And I was denied the future I’d been searching for

I spun around and hurt no more

By living in the moment

Living my life

Easy and breezy

With peace in my mind

With peace in my heart

Got peace in my soul

Wherever I’m going, I’m already home

I’m living in the moment (I’m letting myself off)

I’m living my life (the hook for things I’ve done)

Just taking it easy (I let my past go past)

With peace in my mind (and now I’m having more fun)

Got peace in my heart (I’m letting go of the thoughts)

Got peace in my soul (that do not make me strong)

Wherever I’m going, I’m already home (and I believe this way can be the same for everyone)

I’m living in the moment (I’m letting myself off)

I’m living my life (the hook for things I’ve done)

Easy and breezy (I let my past go past)

With peace in my mind (and now I’m having more fun)

Got peace in my heart (I’m letting go of the thoughts)

Got peace in my soul (that do not make me strong)

Wherever I’m going, I’m already home (and I believe this way can be the same for everyone)

I’m living in the moment
