Hey, everybody. Just thought I'd share a song that I listen to everyday to get up and get some perspective when PTSD gets me down. It's by the Flaming Lips. This past May I ended a public talk on being present to each other even in PTSD with the lyrics. Peace :-)
The Flaming Lips Do You Realize Lyrics song of acceptance-eg Kubler Ross's stages

Do You Realize? Lyrics
[ from How to Deal Soundtrack ]
after songwriter Wayne Coyne's father died
he wrote this song of acceptance-eg. Kubler Ross's stages
Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize - we're floating in space -
Do You Realize - that happiness makes you cry
Do You Realize - that everyone you know someday will die
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round
Do You Realize - Oh - Oh - Oh
Do You Realize - that everyone you know
Someday will die -
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round
Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize

Thanks so much for sharing it. I just loved the narrator Brother David Steindl-Rast's voice as he listed the things I forget to give thanks for--and he did so in such a gentle, kind way. I found he and his friends have a website for gratitude: http://www.gratefulness.org
Everybody, this is a really soothing video if you're hurting or tired. A real tonic for PTSD.
Hey, lessthan3--thanks for the compliment on liking the Flaming Lips. Back atcha!
Here is another link that I found very positive.
