Affirmation - Savage Garden

As is my wont, I suffer from writers block sometimes. A sureshot way to keep blogging in such a case is to write about a song I like. The song below is by a group called Savage Garden (of course, they've now split and the lead singer Darren Hayes is now a major star in his own right)

When I first heard this song, I couldn't understand what it was about. But the more I listened to this song, the more it began to grow on me. This song speaks about how human nature is to always wants more than what is available, resulting in lack of happiness. Whenever i feel low, I listen to this song. It never fails to cheer me up. I also have a printout of the song stuck on my work desk for precisely this reason.

I believe the sun should never set upon an argument

I believe we place our happiness in other people's hands

I believe that junk food tastes so good because it's bad for you

I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do

I believe that beauty magazines promote low self-esteem

I believe I'm loved when I'm completely by myself alone

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned

I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned

I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side

I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye

I believe you can't control or choose your sexuality

I believe that trust is more important than monogamy

I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul

I believe that family is worth more than money or gold

I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair

I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires

I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness

I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed

I believe that God does not endorse TV evangelists

I believe in love surviving death into eternity

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned

I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned

I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side

I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye
