these words are perfect for this part of my journey. I am exactly where I need to be. I believe there is purpose ... I believe we are light and we shine :-).
and isn't it telling that the only time the Christian symbol of the Cross of Calvary appears in the video at all is at the end - mixed with the many symbols of the false religions of humanism, Judaism and Islam.
Is it co·in·ci·den·tal??? Not hardly rather it is quite deliberate.
How sad it is that the world so freely embraces the same lie that caused the fall of Adam and Eve.
This statement will not be debated, so don't even try to go there.
@simnesan if you have nothing nice to say....dont say anything at all, amy steinberg is absolutely amazing! this statement will not be debated, so dont even go there.
or how it is true that what you perceive is what creates reality, or how the 'mantra' "peacelovefree" repeated over and over again seams to lend validity to the false notion that "Fate "she" takes me back to where I need to be", or that the Sun always appears (when it does not)
Is it co·in·ci·den·tal that the peace symbol is a broken and upside down cross or that the lyrics say it is destiny (she) blesses me or Fate (she) takes me or the lyrics say "I believe we are light", which is contrary to the truth, or I am in perfect harmony with universal energy (not Christ) or 'not' endlessly existing (as the truth is we are "exactly" the opposite, or in control of my own destiny (which we are not), or the breeze made me exist (really???),
I can't help but listen to this song when I'm going through a transition in life. And when I lost my job today, I thought to myself..."I am exactly where I need to be." Much love to you all.
I listen to this over and over! you are not "aimlessly existing" because you bless me with this song. You bless the Great I AM within us all with this song. Thank you for being.
I cant get enough of this song! It gives me that warm and fuzzy feeling =) Amy, You really are a blessing manifest! Have you ever read about the importance of (A) 432 in tuning?
this video was sent to me by a friend, im thankful!! it gave me hope!! this song made me feel like everything in my life is happening because it was destined and everything happens for a reason :) beautiful song...thank you
Blown away by the lyrics, the voice, the musical talent, the power and passion!! I find myself sharing this song over and over again, thank you Amy, bless you! Much love!! Xd
This video introduced me to Amy's music, and I have been hooked ever since. This video was done fantastically, and I have listened to it.. hundreds upon hundreds of times in the last two years, quite literally. It helped me through my breakup, it has soothed me through my severe depression, it invigorates me as well as my now ten year old daughter - She knows all the words, as do I. I showed her this video when she was 8 to explain a bit of my faith to her - and she said it made sense.
Amy your songwriting skills cannot be denied . Your timing, and imagery is perfect. You have made me remember who I truly am, my optimism that I have always held, and inspired me to fight harder and create & love even more as an artist. My friend took me to your show in West Palm at lesbeans coffee shop, and I remember telling you it's honest artists like you that remind me I must continue and always create. Your state of mind is exactly where I want to be. Through this song you unite people
@TheMarebell hi! she has released many cds, one called 'Must Be the Moon' and another called 'Fall Down to Fly,' which is my favorite. she is releasing a new one called 'Love Divine.' :) i love her.
Amy, I can't begin to describe the depth of resonance this song embodies for me. True Source's perfection. :) Just as I had clicked play last night, my phone rang and it was my boyfriend. Later I looked at what time it was he called...10:10. Ahhh, the Universe is smiling upon me. Thank you for being a part of it. Much love, sister! <3 :)
I love this comment!!! Thank you so much for your love. I am an 11:11 girl myself :) But 10 10 10 will be SUCH a magical day of rejuvenation and new beginnings!
@steinberglove i was so supposed to find this song, sending me shivers, i am a very spiritual person myself, i sometimes do this thing where i let random words or combinations of words come into my head and type them into youtube and i've found loads of my favourite songs like that! i just did it and 'exactly' came into my head and i found this straight away :) intuition baby!!!
@steinberglove oh wow i just realised you are Amy!!! i really appreciate the reply! Your song is so wonderful i've had it in my head all day and listened to it as soon as I got home since finding it yesterday, I LOVE IT, and what made me think even more that i was so supposed to find this song was the 'i am an 11:11 girl myself', because i also see alot of 11:11 for about 3 years now )as well as 9:11, and 23 & 46 more recently) and i didn't even realise that was you til now!! :) :) :)

New age does not refer to crystals/tarot cards/etc. That actually makes up only about 8 percent of New Age followers. Look up New Age. It is the things you are saying you are.
"I believe the we are light". This is real real close to the whole sun-worshipping "religion" many people are apart of right now, without even really realizing it.
But the truth is, everything is everything, so when you blend the truth in, it is hard to not see where is ends. Excuse me brain explosion
I dare not worship the sun...too hot in Florida! Just kiddin....Seriously though....Carl Sagan said it best when he reminded us that we are made of the same stuff that the stars are made of. This is all I meant. It's a New Thought concept that God is all things, and that's how I believe! Much love to you!
@steinberglove A "new thought concept" is pretty close to New Age, like I said, don't you think? ;)
"But if by God one means the set of physical laws that govern the universe, then clearly there is such a God. "-Carl Sagan
The "Religion of Science" is totally New Age. Everything IS connected, that much is true, so it makes sense to us. That does not mean, though, that there is no one creator.
New Age refers to crystals, tarot cards, astrology and that type of stuff (which I Love!!!) - New Thought refers to the idea that God is all things and all the faiths that grew out of that concept (Unity, Religious Science...etc...) Love it all.
@steinberglove Remember that there is always good mixed in with lies and deception. That's why it works so well. Nice package around what is trying to be sold. However, the danger is in swallowing the garbage along with the good.
Just sayin', there is TRUTH in this world. Everything can't be right. Everything is everything, but that does not mean that everything a person does is right, or "meant to be". We have choices, and can make decisions, and we are easily fooled by lies mixed with truth
Gratefully there is nothing "new age" about the concept of thanking one's Creator for ALL things. My soul attracts what it needs for its own development ... so does the soul of those with diseases and catastrophies and suffering and negativity. The act of being polished requires serious abrasives, but my oh my ... how we do SHINE :D Thank you Amy - you are a gem <3
I absolutely adoooore this song! I have it as a ringtone on my telephone. Fills me with joy and I sometimes don't answer a call immediately because I wanna listen to it! Amaaaazing. Thank you Amy for being exactly who you are! Mwaah!

@fileboy2002: Our blessings! None of us can ever guarantee life will make sense in this lifetime; you are -brave- to be alive when the world appears to be so bleak to you. It also means you can see how much some parts of the world need your love, now more than ever, where they aren't receiving love from anyone else; and I remind you to love yourself! You CAN be part of creating a better reality. I understand these words are begging to trigger something, but I mean them.

This is beautiful, it is the kind of beauty tht can bring the best out of the one who is willing to heal from the pain, and for the one who is not willing or ready to heal, it brings the demons back up again, it brings the hurt back, you have to be willing to accept yourself, an forgive yourself...PEACE, LOVE FREEDOM!~!<3 to slay the demons and live free from the bondage of pain, and hatred,

Love words and intentions ... thank you for sharing. I've been looking for this for ages. Heard it somewhere about two years ago -... and now found it (and sharing it to my friends and clients on Facebook.
If there is a "higher meaning" to life...it certainly isn't to get our fair share, or everything that we deserve--financially, emotionally, etc. The patterns in the universe have made it clear that we're here to learn lessons. We're all the same when we die, and we're all the same in that we start dying as soon as we're born. No matter how easy or hard of a life one has. The physical world is not "fair," but is at equilibrium. And it is ONLY the PHYSICAL world.
@ljliar (CONT.) However, if life has no purpose, design or meaning, then I find it a bit paradoxical to be bitter about suffering and unfairness. Wouldn't it then amount to nothing, and wouldn't success, happiness, and and an easy life be meaningless as well? Yes it would. But I feel that someone who clearly struggles with the condition of unfairly-distributed human pain DOES believe that life has a purpose. Been there. It took me a long time to realize that what I'm saying now is true.
Our choice in life is between trusting and not trusting the Universe. Life can be scary, hard, and painful. Having lived 72 years and suffered a lot of pain and loss, I can choose more and more to trust Love and accept that where I am is where I need to be for my own personal development and evolvement in spite of the heartbreaks...which paradoxically can open our hearts more even as they break.
Pretty melody and fine performance, but the lyrics are infuriating. Nothing but a string of bullshit New Age cliches.
My stepfather died of pancreatic cancer in 2003--did fate put him exactly where he needed to be? Should some child dying of some awful disease, or blown to bits by a suicide bomber, take comfort that it is all part of some glorious divine plan?
As the writer of the song I would like to respond. First, I'm sorry for your loss. This world is filled with awful, horrible events that you just can't sing away. While writing this song, I was going through a devastating break up. It's interesting that you see it as me philosophizing from the mountain top. I was walking through a desert. I don't believe it all the time, but people are soothed by this song. And for that I'm grateful.
Well, I hope you read the part where I said it had a pretty melody and was fine performance. I didn't mean this as a personal attack. But there is a certain brand of pop-spirituality that denies the existence of sensless suffering in the world, saying it is all part of some enlightenment process. It is a lie, and I hate it. The song crystalixed this noxious creed for me. I guess that means it was effective, in a certain sense. It did make me react.
"The world, you see, is happier after the terror of the storm. ... you have noticed that truth comes into this world with two faces. One is sad with suffering, and the other laughs; but it is the same face, laughing or weeping."
This song mellows me out. I often play the lyrics in my head to help me when im frustrated. For me, a listen to this is like a fun romp in an honest and loving place.
@steinberglove Thank you so much for this song! My mother also died of cancer, in fact both my parents died of cancer recently. We bring to us what our vibrational energy attracts. That has nothing to do with "new age bullshit" it is actually a natural law. You know this as the law of attraction. Sometimes it's hard to find the positive side of tragedy but you did it with this song. You ROCK!!!!
@steinberglove I love this song -- everything about it. It's clear that u have walked through pain to get to this point. It definitely resonates with me -- so full of hope.
We are certainly soothed by your lyrics, sound and artwork. Out of our darkest moments something beautiful can rise spontaneously, I know I've had some dark moments but through it all I have found inspiration and hope usually from a source unknown at the time. I came across your video a while ago and it stuck in my mind, I just did a search to remind myself of your words, thank you.

@steinberglov It is not what happens to you, but how you respond to it, that defines who you are.
If many need suffering to prompt forward movement, and growing understanding, then The One Mind ( TOM ) is happy to receive that energy, and "Be there!" patiently until the penny drops. And it will. You have HEART! You DO shine, and people respond. What you put out, comes back! "Thank You!"
well did you think maybe with out people dieing in such ways we could not advance our technology.. they technical world will evolve with or without our help. we need to except this and learn from it not be only bitter by it.
sad to see your despair, grief and pessismism. i've lost too many wonderful folks to cancer, accidents, even to murder one time. yet there's always another side of life to appreciate and i believe it's what my angels - those I've loved and lost - prefer me to focus on. it's important to get reminders like this song or how crowds of haitians danced and sang in the streets after the earthquake. life goes on and it's not always that bad.
@5282cailyn LOL--how can you tell me I am exactly where I need to be in life? How can you know that? You don't. You can't. But you you shouldn't be telling me, anyway. Tell some 9-year-old with leukemia. Or tell her parents. See what they say.
@fileboy2002 I agree with you. I like the song but at the same time the whole New Age backing behind it is a big turn off. The recond label is also "Goddess Records" or something similar too. Which makes me not really able to the LOVE this song.
I've never heard this song before but the message is awesome and so is this video! Great job to the maker and thanks for sharing it! I feel uplifted... :)

If there is a "higher meaning" to life...it certainly isn't to get our fair share, or everything that we deserve--financially, emotionally, etc. The patterns in the universe have made it clear that we're here to learn lessons. We're all the same when we die, and we're all the same in that we start dying as soon as we're born. No matter how easy or hard of a life one has. The physical world is not "fair," but is at equilibrium. And it is ONLY the PHYSICAL world.

@ljliar (CONT.) However, if life has no purpose, design or meaning, then I find it a bit paradoxical to be bitter about suffering and unfairness. Wouldn't it then amount to nothing, and wouldn't success, happiness, and and an easy life be meaningless as well? Yes it would. But I feel that someone who clearly struggles with the condition of unfairly-distributed human pain DOES believe that life has a purpose. Been there. It took me a long time to realize that what I'm saying now is true.

Our choice in life is between trusting and not trusting the Universe. Life can be scary, hard, and painful. Having lived 72 years and suffered a lot of pain and loss, I can choose more and more to trust Love and accept that where I am is where I need to be for my own personal development and evolvement in spite of the heartbreaks...which paradoxically can open our hearts more even as they break.

Pretty melody and fine performance, but the lyrics are infuriating. Nothing but a string of bullshit New Age cliches.
My stepfather died of pancreatic cancer in 2003--did fate put him exactly where he needed to be? Should some child dying of some awful disease, or blown to bits by a suicide bomber, take comfort that it is all part of some glorious divine plan?
This kind of pseudo-philosophy makes me sick.

Hello,
As the writer of the song I would like to respond. First, I'm sorry for your loss. This world is filled with awful, horrible events that you just can't sing away. While writing this song, I was going through a devastating break up. It's interesting that you see it as me philosophizing from the mountain top. I was walking through a desert. I don't believe it all the time, but people are soothed by this song. And for that I'm grateful.

Well, I hope you read the part where I said it had a pretty melody and was fine performance. I didn't mean this as a personal attack. But there is a certain brand of pop-spirituality that denies the existence of sensless suffering in the world, saying it is all part of some enlightenment process. It is a lie, and I hate it. The song crystalixed this noxious creed for me. I guess that means it was effective, in a certain sense. It did make me react.

This song mellows me out. I often play the lyrics in my head to help me when im frustrated. For me, a listen to this is like a fun romp in an honest and loving place.

@steinberglove Thank you so much for this song! My mother also died of cancer, in fact both my parents died of cancer recently. We bring to us what our vibrational energy attracts. That has nothing to do with "new age bullshit" it is actually a natural law. You know this as the law of attraction. Sometimes it's hard to find the positive side of tragedy but you did it with this song. You ROCK!!!!

@steinberglove I love this song -- everything about it. It's clear that u have walked through pain to get to this point. It definitely resonates with me -- so full of hope.

We are certainly soothed by your lyrics, sound and artwork. Out of our darkest moments something beautiful can rise spontaneously, I know I've had some dark moments but through it all I have found inspiration and hope usually from a source unknown at the time. I came across your video a while ago and it stuck in my mind, I just did a search to remind myself of your words, thank you.

@steinberglov It is not what happens to you, but how you respond to it, that defines who you are.
If many need suffering to prompt forward movement, and growing understanding, then The One Mind ( TOM ) is happy to receive that energy, and "Be there!" patiently until the penny drops. And it will. You have HEART! You DO shine, and people respond. What you put out, comes back! "Thank You!"

sad to see your despair, grief and pessismism. i've lost too many wonderful folks to cancer, accidents, even to murder one time. yet there's always another side of life to appreciate and i believe it's what my angels - those I've loved and lost - prefer me to focus on. it's important to get reminders like this song or how crowds of haitians danced and sang in the streets after the earthquake. life goes on and it's not always that bad.

@5282cailyn LOL--how can you tell me I am exactly where I need to be in life? How can you know that? You don't. You can't. But you you shouldn't be telling me, anyway. Tell some 9-year-old with leukemia. Or tell her parents. See what they say.
fileboy2002 1 year ago
@fileboy2002 I agree with you. I like the song but at the same time the whole New Age backing behind it is a big turn off. The recond label is also "Goddess Records" or something similar too. Which makes me not really able to the LOVE this song.
