There's a Livestream on the National cathedral website. The waiting music is like songs from Bridgerton, lol.

Did they sing? Will they sing as they visit that orange at his doorstep? Maybe he will welcome them they wear a color he looks like.

When I wake up, well, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you
When I go out, yeah, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you
If I get [drunk], well, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who gets [drunk] next to you
And if I haver, yeah, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's haverin' to you

[Chorus]
But I would walk five hundred miles
And I would walk five hundred more
Just to be the man who walked a thousand
Miles to fall down at your door

[Verse 2]
When I'm workin', yes, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's workin' hard for you
And when the money comes in for the work I do
I'll pass almost every penny on to you
When I come home (When I come home), oh, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you
And if I grow old, well, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's growin' old with you

[Chorus]
But I would walk five hundred miles
And I would walk five hundred more
Just to be the man who walked a thousand
Miles to fall down at your door

[Post-Chorus]
Da-da da da (Da-da da da)
Da-da da da (Da-da da da)
Da-da dum diddy dum diddy dum diddy da da da
Da-da da da (Da-da da da)
Da-da da da (Da-da da da)
Da-da dum diddy dum diddy dum diddy da da da

[Verse 3]
When I'm lonely, well, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's lonely without you
And when I'm dreamin', well, I know I'm gonna dream
I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with you
When I go out (When I go out), well, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you
And when I come home (when I come home), yes, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who comes back home with you
I'm gonna be the man who's comin' home with you

[Chorus]
But I would walk five hundred miles
And I would walk five hundred more
Just to be the man who walked a thousand
Miles to fall down at your door

[Post-Chorus]
Da-da da da (Da-da da da)
Da-da da da (Da-da da da)
Da-da dum diddy dum diddy dum diddy da da da
Da-da da da (Da-da da da)
Da-da da da (Da-da da da)
Da-da dum diddy dum diddy dum diddy da da da
Da-da da da (Da-da da da)
Da-da da da (Da-da da da)
Da-da dum diddy dum diddy dum diddy da da da
Da-da da da (Da-da da da)
Da-da da da (Da-da da da)
Da-da dum diddy dum diddy dum diddy da da da

[Chorus]
And I would walk five hundred miles
And I would walk five hundred more
Just to be the man who walked a thousand
Miles to fall down at your door

Stupidest thing ever. Sorry, but how does this help us find peace?

At the stops there are talks. I learned things, including to only react with kindness, stop trying to multitask and chase my thoughts. Chasing my thoughts and being unkind or angry is not how to experience peace. Each of us walks for peace each moment.



I am going to follow the instruction to start each morning by writing "This is going to be my peaceful day" instead of jumping on my screens to scroll, i will see what ensues.

You have a lot to learn if you have to actually ask that question. Stupid question.

I find it soothing they walked through good and bad weather. Cold, rain and snow. No complaints. They were at peace. Happy to wake up everyday. Grateful for a meal. Happy to see humans. They smiled. Accepted flowers.

So simple. We should all be that happy everyday of our lives.

Peace begins with each of us independently and if you don’t understand that, maybe you should go join one of their talks. It’s quite simple.

Too bad you did not go. It would have helped you understand .

The very fact that THOUSANDS of people stopped their lives to see these men speaks volumes. Americans are desperate for hope, and men with good values who understand that violence is not strength

I saw them today. It felt like an honor. What special, humble, strong humans.

The rudderless power seekers in DC pale by comparison.

Message: first thing in the morning, do not touch your phone and scroll. Make your bed. Peace.
