It's just a moment - this time will pass

I was out for a 5 mile run today - still following my training plan you see - and listening to my iPod. I'm always amazed at how the right song can just suddenly come on and lift your spirits. During my run I was thinking a lot about my job and my life, specifically stressing a little bit on what to do after my current contract is up. Then all of a sudden a U2 song came on that just made me feel better, "Stuck in a Moment You Can't Get Out Of" from the album All That You Can't Leave Behind.

"And you are such a fool
To worry like you do
I know it's tough
And you can never get enough
Of what you don't really need now
My, oh my
You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it

And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if your way should falter
Along this stony pass

It's just a moment
This time will pass"

I'm diggin' the healing and calming power of music and I also had an amazingly fast run, so life is good!!
