Check out this wonderful new song from Derek Hunter. Note: I wrote the lyrics for this song based on a podcast episode I wrote several years ago.
Lyrics
Don’t trade your soul for a golden chainThe clock keeps ticking but love remainsHold your dear ones close at nightLet your eyes dance in the firelight
Living for the real, walking where the wild winds blowLiving for the real, where the river sings soft and slowFeed your heart with morning dewThe world shines brighter when you do
Spend time with those you care forPlay with your children and let them scoreLaugh hard. Walk in the wood.Be kind to everyone. Do the good.
Run with your dogs, play with your catsStop your work, take off your hatsBe real. Be true. Be full of joy.Play hard. Play long. Play ships ahoy!
Living for the real, walking where the wild winds blowLiving for the real, where the river sings soft and slowFeed your heart with morning dewThe world shines brighter when you do
Living for the real, walking where the wild winds blowLiving for the real, where the river sings soft and slow

Never sacrifice your real life for your work. If you are like me, you can’t not work, but make sure you fit in some real life as well. Spend time with those you love. Laugh hard. Walk in the woods. Play with your cats and dogs and children. Be kind to everyone.
