An old favorite, just as beautiful and meaningful as the day I first heard it and wept.

@chinoise2 Really lovely comment. Very happy you are part of Meg's and Holly's song now.

This song is my mantra for life. Many young men In Pakistan go around with this in their heads. Working hard for peace I use this song a LOT.

@katajha831 Thank you for this comment. I think Holly's experiences in Vietnam coupled with lessons of feminist sensibility were the basis for this song. I read that in her autobiography.

Beautiful song. I was searching for this song because I heard it in a Dutch film "Een vrouw als Eva". I did not know the title but I found it with google. :-)

Thank you for posting it. Thumbs up!

With love from the Netherlands,

Jeanne

@artistjeanne Funny...I was just visiting your channel and listened to one upload. I wanted to thank you for sub but I could not seem to find the area on your home page to comment publically. I then came to my inbox and found your comment here. I can't wait to try and find that film. I hope/know you will enjoy Meg Christian's music here. Thank you for the sub.

Nov. 6, 2010...One more view to 1,000. When I see Meg Christian again I may ask for a bit of help understanding this song. Holly Near drew inspiration from a Vietnamese poem and Meg from a poem called - Elephant Poem by Judy Grahn.

My inspiration for video to add came from a 300 million year old rock formation very near my home.

@NeedingMusic The first one I did was The Road I Took To You. I then said, I need to do better and did this song with video. Have to say...I was proud of result. Thanks for comments today.
