  1. Seize The Day

From the recording Seize The Day

Time is like a thief in the night, stealing away a month here and there. This thief embezzles countless hours in our lives when we work excess hours, or perhaps when spending excessive hours on TV shows, video games, web browsing and chatting; frivolous socializing and even sleeping time away, (do to depression, lack of hope, lethargy, sluggish health and so forth).
Too much sand has already sifted through the hourglass by the time we realise that each day holds it own unique opportunities, just as the song says, "Life is a fight realised much too late.." However, at one point or another, we all get stuck in ruts. We're afraid of change and become all too comfortable with what is 'familiar'. No one else will grab the reins of life for us. Why not begin anew because NOW is NEVER too late! As Chakra Bleu reminds us all in her song: "Seize the Day! -Seek treasure of the heart...Aspire to be all you can!" Howe can we do this? Start by writing down your ideals in each department of your life. Take baby steps and don't judge yourself along the way. Keep a sense of humour and a thankful heart. Finally, as the song reminds us:"Feel the wonder of child again- (whereby an) adventurous spirit burns within."

Lyrics

SEIZE THE DAY
 
 
  VERSE:
 LIFE IS A GIFT REALIZED MUCH TOO LATE
 
 WORKING TOO HARD OR WASTING YOUR TIME AWAY
 
 SEIZE THE SAY – SEEK TREASURES OF THE HEART
 FADE AWAY – TRIVIAL THINGS VOID AND FARCE 
 FEEL THE WONDER OF A CHILD AGAIN
ADVENTUROUS SPIRIT BURNS WITHIN
 CHORUS:
SEIZE THE MOMENT  - SEIZE THE DAY
 DON'T LET LIFE JUST SLIP AWAY
 LIVE AS THOUGH IT'S YOUR LAST DAY
  DON'T LET LIFE JUST SLIP AWAY              
  VERSE:
 SAND IN THE HOURGLASS KEEPS SIFTING DOWN
 LIFE, IT ROLLS ON BY AND DOESN'T WAIT AROUND
 SEIZE THE DAY – TAKE THE BALL AND RUN
  DON'T DELAY – 'TIL THE GOAL IS MADE AND WON
 TAKE YOUR DESTINY IN YOUR HANDS
 ASPIRE TO BE ALL YOU CAN      to chorus…..
 
 BRIDGE:
JUMP OFF AND EMBRACE CHANGE – EXPAND BEYOND YOUR RANGE
DON'T SETTLE TO BE THE SAME – GO, STAKE YOUR CLAIM!
