“Sometimes your soul is on fire, sometimes it’s frozen; do you choose to feel this way, or are you chosen? All the treasures in your memory, all the pounding in your chest — scenes from a troubled mind…”
– Lyric from Gov’t Mule’s “Scenes From A Troubled Mind”
If our minds are troubled, perhaps it’s because we’re operating from a frozen-soul perspective.
Perhaps it’s because we’ve chosen to feel a certain way.
But if we’re chosen — called — and our soul’s on fire, well, perhaps that’s an un-troubling path.
Another part of the lyric — and you’d LOVE this song — says: “Sometimes your heart is on wheels, can’t move slow. Sometimes you wonder how it feels, but you’ll never know; all the times that you’ve been blinded, all the times that you’ve been burned…”
If our hearts are on wheels — let ’em roll. I’d bet we’re on a path to making a difference. And that, friends, will un-trouble our minds…
