Can we be renewed like the flowers? Most certainly we can! Are we willing to make the changes that would make our lives and that of others better? Well, that seems like a toughie. Granted, all of us are not made up the same way psychologically. We carry experiences of joys and pains from our past. But, in many instances, we choose to remember the pains more of the joys. There are so many things to be thankful for. Yet, we oftentimes take them for granted.
What's your choice? Think about it.
Have an uplifting week, you awesome ones. And that's about everybody reading this.

Peabo Bryson and Regina Belle

Then

Now.

This feature takes a slight departure from focusing on a solo artist or groups and celebrates the coming of age of the Disney classic, "Aladdin". It's 31 years now. Apart from the positive message it evokes, the theme song is a gem done by Peabo Bryson and Regina Belle - what a song!
Bryson has teamed up with several artists to help produce some great hits. His rich tenor pitch is purity and has wooed audiences around the world for decades. When I last checked he is still performing.

A Whole New World

I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me,princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide

I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride

A whole new world world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming

A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up there
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you

Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky

A whole new world
Don't you dare close your eyes
A hundred thousand things begin
Hold your breath - it's getting better
I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back I'm in

A whole new world
Every turn a surprise
With new horizons to pursue
Every moment red - letter
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you

A whole new world
(A whole new world)
That's where we'll be
(That's where we'll be)
A thrilling chase
A wondrous place
For you and me.

Note: Bryson and Belle changed some lyrics in their song (Just a few)
