I can tell my brother by the flowers in his eyes, I'm on the road to Shambala.

Once upon a time people sang about things like Shambhala and believed they were real, or at least attainable with sufficient and sincere introspection.

I don't think that's such a bad thing. I can think of worse things to sing about.

Say something else in that ear.

"We spend most of our lives finding ourselves, which means almost daily deciding we are not what others want us to be.

We often keep this to ourselves, for it's better in the long run, regarding small matters, to be what others want us to be.

That is most often called having manners."
