Today is my 2-year anniversary here |
|
10,000+ posts later. Shared laughter, shared tears. More than once I wanted to walk away. Today makes it worth it that I stayed. I sincerely didn't think that we would be in power today without tanks rolling down Pennsylvania Avenue taking it back. I had lost my faith in my fellow Americans. Even though my state still is in a Republican stranglehold, it seems to be loosening up. Congratulations DU. This one is for YOU.
THE TIMES THEY ARE A-CHANGIN' by Bob Dylan
Come gather 'round people Wherever you roam And admit that the waters Around you have grown And accept it that soon You'll be drenched to the bone. If your time to you Is worth savin' Then you better start swimmin' Or you'll sink like a stone For the times they are a-changin'.
Come writers and critics Who prophesize with your pen And keep your eyes wide The chance won't come again And don't speak too soon For the wheel's still in spin And there's no tellin' who That it's namin'. For the loser now Will be later to win For the times they are a-changin'.
Come senators, congressmen Please heed the call Don't stand in the doorway Don't block up the hall For he that gets hurt Will be he who has stalled | There's a battle outside And it is ragin'. It'll soon shake your windows And rattle your walls For the times they are a-changin'.
Come mothers and fathers Throughout the land And don't criticize What you can't understand Your sons and your daughters Are beyond your command Your old road is Rapidly agin'. Please get out of the new one If you can't lend your hand For the times they are a-changin'.
The line it is drawn The curse it is cast The slow one now Will later be fast As the present now Will later be past The order is Rapidly fadin'. And the first one now Will later be last For the times they are a-changin'.

Actually, we're celebrating 2 years together. I'm just about 2,000 posts behind you, though. :)
