Well ,the "Boss" and the E-Street Band certainly did not disappoint as he rejuvenated and reinvigorized the tremendous sell-out crowd at Giants Stadium last night.
It is impossible to go to one of his shows, and NOT get caught up in the spirit of enthusiasm, comraderie, joy and Hope that he exudes in his 3 hour plus effort!
It is absolutely inspirational and uplifting!
Bruce embodies the battle-weariness of the Human Spirit, the "never-say-die-no-matter-how- bad-things-look" and how low you feel - you have to keep Soldiering on - keep battling - Keep the Faith that EVERYTHING WILL BE OK!
Because it ALWAYS IS OK!!!
Bruce did not perform this song last night, but this is a song he used to end his shows a few tours back!
It captures his message about where we are headed --- and how we are ALL in this together!
All walks of life - rich, poor, fat, skinny, successful, lost, etc -- WE will all end up in the same destination - at the end of that Train Ride we are on -- and it is the JOURNEY and how you travel that matters!
Who would you rather be remembered as if you had the choice when you pass - Donald Trump with all his wealth and name plastered all over the place (no offense to DT as he is clearly a successful individual and I do not begrudge that) or Mother Theresa who did not have a penny to her name?
The Journey and what we leave behind - as well as how we impact others while here and able - that is what matters!!
Dreams will not be thwarted - and Faith Will be REWARDED!!
Enjoy the beautiful weekend - take a deep breath - count your Blessings as they are more plentiful than you truly comprehend!!!
And oh yeah, Stay Strong!!
Land of Hope and Dreams
Grab your ticket and your suitcase
Thunder's rolling down the tracks
You don't know where you're goin'
But you know you won't be back
Darlin' if you're weary - Lay your head upon my chest
We'll take what we can carry - And we'll leave the rest
Big Wheels rolling through fields Where sunlight streams
Meet me in a land of hope and dreams
I will provide for you - And I'll stand by your side
You'll need a good companion for This part of the ride
Leave behind your sorrows - Let this day be the last
Tomorrow there'll be sunshine - And all this darkness past
Big wheels roll through fieldsWhere sunlight streams
Meet me in a land of hope and dreams
This train Carries saints and sinners
This train Carries losers and winners
This Train Carries whores and gamblers
This Train Carries lost souls
This Train Dreams will not be thwarted
This Train Faith will be rewarded
This Train Hear the steel wheels singin'
This Train Bells of freedom ringin'
This Train Carries broken-hearted
This Train Thieves and sweet souls departed
This Train Carries fools and kings
This Train All aboard
This Train Dreams will not be thwarted
This Train Faith will be rewarded
This Train Hear the steel wheels singin'
This TrainBells of freedom ringin'.......
