Simplify Your Life, Country Version

The following country song features an excerpt from a passage in Henry David Thoreau’s Walden.Lyrics from WaldenIf one advances confidentlyin the direction of his dreams,and endeavors to live the lifewhich he has imagined,he will meet with a successunexpected in common hours.He will put some things behind,will pass an invisible boundary;new, universal, and more liberal lawswill begin to establish themselvesaround and within him;or the old laws be expanded,and interpreted in his favorin a more liberal sense,and he will live with the licenseof a higher order of beings.In proportion as he simplifies his life,the laws of the universewill appear less complex,and solitude will not be solitude,and poverty will not be poverty,and weakness will not be weakness.If you have built castles in the air,your work need not be lost;that is where they should be.Now put the foundation under them.In proportion as he simplifies his life,the laws of the universewill appear less complex,and solitude will not be solitude,and poverty will not be poverty,and weakness will not be weakness.Book Marketing Success is a reader-supported publication.
