Song of the Day for Howard Kranz
Twenty-first in a series of songs for Howard and me to cover, or be inspired by, or something.
Even in the Quietest Moments
"Even in the Quietest Moments" by Supertramp
Even in the quietest moments I wish I knew what I had to do And even though the sun is shining Well, I feel the rain -- here it comes again, dear And even when you showed me My heart was out of tune For there's a shadow of doubt that's not letting me find you too soon The music that you gave me The language of my soul Oh Lord, I want to be with you, Won't you let me come in from the cold? Don't you let the sun fade away Don't you let the sun fade away Don't you let the sun be leaving Won't you come to me soon And even though the stars are listening And the ocean's deep, I just go to sleep And then I create the silent movie You become the star, is that what you are, dear? Your whisper tells a secret Your laughter brings me joy And a wonder of feeling I'm Nature's own little boy But still the tears keep falling They're raining from the sky Well there's a lot of me got to go under before I get high Don't you let the sun disappear Don't you let the sun disappear Don't you let the sun be leaving No, you can't be leaving my life Say that you won't be leaving my life Say that you won't be leaving my life Say won't you please, stay won't you please Say won't you please, stay won't you please Lord, won't you come and get into my life Lord, won't you come and get into my life Say won't you please, stay won't you please Say won't you please, stay won't you please Lord, don't go Won't you come to me? Even when the song is over Where have I been -- was it just a dream? And though your door is always open Where do I begin -- may I please come in, dear?

I Ching
I Ching reading, for inspiration: "Song of the Day":
The present is embodied in Hexagram 60 - Chieh (Limitation):
There will be progress and attainment, but if the regulations prescribed be severe and difficult, they cannot be permanent.
The fourth line, divided, shows its subject quietly and naturally attentive to all regulations. There will be progress and success.
The situation is evolving slowly, and Yang (the active masculine force) is gaining ground.

The future is embodied in Hexagram 58 - Tui (Joy):
There will be progress and attainment, but it will be advantageous to be firm and correct.
The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram K'an (Water), which is transforming into Tui (Lake). As part of this process, danger and the unknown are giving way to joy, pleasure, and attraction.
The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Tui (Lake), which represents joy, pleasure, and attraction.
