Have you heard the song “Unwritten” by Natasha Bedingfield?
Within the lyrics, she’s really singing about beginner’s mind and openness, all in a pop music dance number. It’s nearly exhilirating.
Some snippets – “live your life with arms wide open” – “we’ve been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can’t live that way” – “feel the rain on your skin, no one else can feel it for you” – “no one else can speak the words on your lips” – “the rest is all unwritten”
She’s probably not a Buddhist, yet this sure encourages me to wake up, live in the moment, and dance!
