Enigma - Return to Innocence

One soul touching, amazing beautiful Enigma song full of emotions and a genuine sense of nostalgia for one's childhood .

Lyrics :
That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence

Love, devotion
Feeling, emotion
Love, devotion
Feeling, emotion

Don't be afraid to be weak
Don't be too proud to be strong
Just look into your heart, my friend
That will be the return to yourself
The return to innocence

If you want, then start to laugh
If you must, then start to cry
Be yourself, don't hide
Just believe in destiny
Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence

That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence

Don't care what people say
Follow just your own way
Don't give up, don't give up
To return, to return to innocence

If you want, then laugh
If you must, then cry
Be yourself, don't hide
Just believe in destiny

Mindset change

As my friend was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a rope tied to their legs. It was obvious that the elephants could, at anytime, break way from the ropes they were tired to but for some reason, they did not. My friend saw a trainer nearby and asked why these beautiful, magnificent animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away.

"Well", he said, "When they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and at that age, it's enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free." My friend was amazed. These animals could at any time break free from their bonds but because they believed they couldn't, they were stuck right where they were. The powerful and gigantic creature has limited its present abilities by the limitations of its past.

Life the elephants, how many of us go through life holding onto a belief that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before? How many of us refuse to attempt something new and challenging because of our so called MINDSET?

Your attempt may fail, but never fail to make an attempt...

and

CHOOSE not to accept the false boundaries and limitations created by the past...

Tell me why - Declan Galbraith

What a powerful message the song sends out! The impact is even greater that is sung by a young artist in his sweet, boyish and emotionally charged voice. The world he sees is different from his dream. He doesn’t understand why it is so? I think we too don’t understand.

The song hits many, makes many think and feel about contemporary issues. What is becoming of this world with endless armed conflicts, war, poverty, hunger, destruction of nature, the environment, wild life, greed etc.

A must see and must hear video. Very touching. Enjoy and reflect ….!


Lyrics:

In my dream
Children sing
A song of love for every boy and girl

This sky is blue
The fields are green
And laughter is the language of the world

Then I wake and all I see
Is a world full of people in need

Tell me why
Does it have to be like this
Tell me why
Is there something I have missed
Tell me why
Because I don't understand
When somebody needs somebody
We don't give a helping hand
Tell me why

Everyday
I ask myself
What I have to do to be a man

Do I have
To stand and fight
To prove to everybody who I am

Is that what my life is for
To waste in a world full of war

Tell me why
Does it have to be like this
Tell me why
Is there something I have missed
Tell me why
Because I don't understand
When somebody needs somebody
We don't give a helping hand
Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why
Just tell me why

Tell me why
Does it have to be like this
Tell me why
Is there something I have missed
Tell me why
Because I don't understand
When somebody needs somebody
We don't give a helping hand
Tell me why

Why why, do the tigers run
Why Why, do we shoot the gun
Why why, do we never learn

Can someone tell us why we let the forest burn
why, why do we say we care
Why, why do we stand and stare
Why, why do the dolphins cry
Can someone tell us why we let the ocean die

Why, why if we're all the same
why, why do we pass the blame
Why, why does it never end
Can someone tell us why we cannot just be friends
Why why
