I rearranged my bedroom furniture in the past few days, and I am newly enjoying everything about my private space. Spring inspired me to change, I think. I’ve been listening to music and playing flute in my room, too, and maybe it’s because the birds outside are now singing every morning. They make me want to sing. I’m awake, and the world is awake.
“Wake up, my dearest friend!”
Wake up, my dearest friend!
Life is waiting for you now.
You’ve been sleeping all too long.
Wake up! Wake up!
Take a look around yourself.
The energy of love is everywhere.
Choose to see it now.
Wake up! Wake up!
from Ginnungagap, a musical from Denmark,
drawing inspiration from Norse Mythology
