“I’m sitting on top of the world
Just rolling along, just rolling along.
I’m quitting the blues of the world,
Just singing a song, just singing a song.”
This is an old song as old goes. It was written by Al Jolson
but many people have recorded their own version.
It is a very happy and positive song !
From the top of the world
I can see how beautiful everything is
and I feel grateful.
Being on top of the world means
that I have food to eat,
flowers to smell –
seeds to plant
and water.
Being on top of things means –
there is plenty of laughter even when there are tears . . .
and an abundance of hope.
Being on top of the world means
having enough for my needs
and plenty to share with others.
Oh, it is wonderful
to be able to surprise people
with things they need
and don’t expect.
Feeling on top of the world means
feeling like a Queen,
with a smaller kingdom
and fewer responsibilities.
(Grandpa reminded me that Queen,
which is a musical group,
recorded a wonderful up-beat song titled
Bicycle.)
When you are on top of the world
a few things mean a lot
and too many things
feel like a burden.
From the top of the world
you can see everything
and everything is beautiful.
-Grandma-
This is very sweet, and makes you think.
