Heart of Gold

Being in the redwoods reminded me of Neil Young's song Heart of Gold (click to hear it). His lyrics seem to fit Ted's Excellent Adventure well:




I've been to Hollywood, I've been to Redwood
I crossed the ocean for a heart of gold
I've been in my mind, it's such a fine line
That keep me searchin' for a heart of gold
And I'm gettin' old
That keep me searchin' for a heart of gold
And I'm gettin' old

• I've been to Hollywood, and I have been to the redwoods.
  
• I've crossed the nation.
  
• I've been searching my heart.
  
• I've been searching my mind.
  And I am a better, more whole person because of it.
  I am so glad I have taken this both physical and spiritual journey.
  
• And, yes, I am certainly getting old.

Thanks for the reminder, Neil (on all counts).
