Castles in the Sky

Talk about random.  I'm pulling up to the office, ready to drop off Kiara, only to pick up Leila from preschool.  Totally normal.  Until Ian Van Dahl's "Castles in the Sky" comes on XM radio, and no, for those who know, I wasn't listening to BPM.  So this is certainly bizarre, because I probably haven't heard this song for AT LEAST 6-7 years, maybe longer.  Immediately, I am brought back to 2000 when I still listened to a TON of electronica, techno, trance, and house (thanks Rafi!).  Memories flooded back to 9 years ago... good grief, that is almost a DECADE ago.  And all I can think about for a moment is my college years and how quickly they passed and how if I had the opportunity to do it all over again, I wouldn't have finished up early. Some of the greatest memories I have are from those days.  I met some incredible people, and learned very important life lessons there.

Anyway, I digress.  For those who are not familiar with this song, there are very few lyrics as is common with most of these types of songs.  But the words it does contain have always resonated with me, and is certainly fitting with the spirit of my blog:

"Do you ever question your life,
Do you ever wonder why?
Do you ever see in your dreams,
All the castles in the sky?"

Ummmm.... did they write this song for me?   This is me, every single day.  Just sayin'.
