Operation 365 - Jefferson Jay - Originals - 365 "Why Decide?/Release"

I wrote "Why Decide/Release" today. It is actually two tunes that go together, I think. It is brand new. I knew I would have one day left on the originals after I finished going through my new CD, "Gift To Be Alive," which you can have here incidentally.

So I figured I'd write a song for the end, maybe call it "Operation 365" or something. I have thought a lot about what all this means, this whole Operation. What I learned. Why I did it. What I gained from the experience and I answered my own question with another question in part. Why Decide? Why do we have to say how things are? Can't we just experience and leave it at that? Why does it have to be what we say it is? Why can't it just be? That question, "Why Decide?" can be asked of every line in this song? Why decide what really matters? And so on and so forth. It's food for thought and on Thanksgiving with 365 straight days of work behind me, and a belly enormously full with delicious food from Jeff Dewine and Jillian's house, I will answer the question in the spirit it was asked. You don't need to decide anything unless you want to, but things are the are either way.

The second part of this tune, "Release" bears the real answer to all these questions. Let go and then you free your mind.

It's a beautiful world. See it that way or miss the simple bliss before your eyes.

Peace and love in this life.

Onward and upward, we fly.

NOTE: Thank you for watching the Operation 365. While this concludes the video portion of our program, I started the blog about a week ater the actual Operation and intend to continue until it reaches its 365th day. I believe that will be next Wednesday.

When I started this experiment 365 days ago, I said I was doing it to see what would happen. The purpose of the essays, "Reflections on the 365," if you will, is to look into that more closely and see what actually happen during the course of this Operation, as understood immediately following its conclusion. So thanks for your company. We will beginning our descent into less daily responsibilities. All forecasts are for a smooth landing in Freedom San Diego, California on Wednesday. In the meantime, please enjoy the rest of your adventure. Thanks for flying Operation 365!
