I thought this message today from Dick Sutphen's Daily Guru was nice, and it reminded me of a Neil Young song. Nicolette Larson was singing along on that song, God bless her soul. First the message, which is a quote from Max Steingart:

IT'S YOUR FRIENDS THAT MAKE YOUR WORLD

Your own positive energy will compel things to turn out the way you desire when you're surrounded by positive people.
Choose your environment with care.

Your environment is your mental feeding ground.
It's where all the food that goes into your mind comes from.

Choose your environment with care, one that is positive, one that lifts you up and gives you wings to soar.

Create favorable conditions through your association with others.
Avoid people who belittle your ambition.

Small people always do that, but the really great people, make you feel that you, too, can become great.

We shape our buildings, and then they shape us.

THE DAILY GURU

Then the Neil Young song, lyrics courtesy of the HyperRust fan site:

 Quote:
Goin' Back
by Neil Young

In a foreign land
There were creatures at play
Running hand in hand
Leading nowhere to stay
Driven to the mountains high
They were sunken in the cities deep
Livin' in my sleep.

I feel like goin' back
Back where there's nowhere to stay
When fire fills the sky
I'll still remember that day
These rocks I'm climbin' down
Have already left the ground
Careening through space.

I used to build these buildings
I used to walk next to you
Their shadows tore us apart
And now we do what we do
Driven to the mountains high
Sunken in the cities deep
Livin' in our sleep.

I feel like goin' back
Back where there's nowhere to stay.
