i should be asleep but am listening to some wonderful songs by
Simon and Garfunkel...
i love their song America.. a song about a couple, setting off on a
journey to find their dream, full of hope, fear, quiet desperation,
joy, trepidation, looking forward, hoping... a song which was and
still is, the essense of what made America 
then there's Mrs Robinson, Bookends, Old Friends.. wonderful
songs...
time it was it was a time it was
a time of innocence
a time of confidences...

somehow, they still ring true...
