Only the country-liver can fully feel it -- this dying of night with the birth of day -- this supreme moment when the mists and dimness and low voices of the one exhale into the melody and brightness of the other. It is a daily miracle -- this sudden transition from gray to rosy light -- this unrolling of the landscape--this assumption, in delicious crescendo, of sound -- this quickening of the day's life over the sleep of night -- this flying of darkness, as of a ghost pursued, before the flooding of light -- this oldest of all stories again told. Awake, for the day has dawned.
-- Ellen Chapman (Hobbs) Rollins
when you realize what you thought was the worst thing was truly the best thing. (and you're so thankful for modern medicine)
"no human can act beyond the level of their consciousness or development." (despite how much they tell you how honest and honorable they are.)

About The Sunshine Coast
The Sunshine Coast is an urban area in South East Queensland, north of the state capital of Brisbane on the Pacific Ocean coastline. Although it does not have a central business district, by population it ranks as the 10th largest metropolis in Australia and the third largest in Queensland.
Many of the Sunshine Coast's towns began as simple ports or jetties for the timber industry during the 1860s and 1870s, as the area once had magnificent stands of forest. Likewise, the region's roads often began as snigging tracks for hauling timber. Timbergetters used the region's creeks, rivers and lakes as seaways to float out their logs of cedar – the resultant wood being shipped as far afield as Europe.
BeetleCam snuck up to this sleeping lion and then got a bit of a shock when his eyes flew wide open!

When you're falling awake
And you take stock of the new day
And you hear your voice croak
As you choke on what you need to say
Well, don't you fret, don't you fear
I will give you good cheer
Life's a long song
Life's a long song
Life's a long song
If you wait then your plate I will fill
As the verses unfold
and your soul suffers the long day
And the twelve o'clock gloom
Spins the room, you struggle on your way
Well, don't you sigh, don't you cry
Lick the dust from your eye
Life's a long song
Life's a long song
Life's a long song
We will meet in the sweet light of dawn
As the Baker Street train spills your pain
All over your new dress
And the symphony sounds
underground puts you under duress
Well, don't you squeal as the heel
Grinds you under the wheels
Life's a long song
Life's a long song
Life's a long song
But the tune ends too soon for us all
I was reminded of those over night journeys, you know the ones, in my case down to London, usually on 1M12, i think it was, around 2 ish am off Wigan, that dust laden compartment stock, and the sticky feel that it had... you'd nod off pretty quickly, and on arrival you would be vaguely aware of awakening at some point and seeing something, but couldn't remember clearly.. any how you'd be as dry as an old stick and the butties you had left, cheese on hovis, made you even clackier, and the bottle of corporation pop (water) was tepid and pretty uninspiring, but you drank it any way, so you could bin the bottle, to make life easier on the tube journey's.
From many a poor start such as this, great day's were had.
Jethro Tull's ( Ian Anderson ) Life's a long song was released in 1971, as a fifteen year old this song was awesome, and i still like to listen to it. I am fairly certain it was from the Minstrel looks back album.

Taken on a family trip to Scotland earlier in the year, looking up and seeing the night sky in all it's glory left me feeling rather awake!
Awake, my soul, and with the sun
Thy daily stage of duty run;
Shake off dull sloth, and joyful rise,
To pay thy morning sacrifice.
Thy precious time misspent, redeem,
Each present day thy last esteem,
Improve thy talent with due care;
For the great day thyself prepare.
By influence of the Light divine
Let thy own light to others shine.
Reflect all Heaven’s propitious ways
In ardent love, and cheerful praise.
