ON A CLEAR DAY
The Peddlers
On a clear day
Rise and look around you
And you'll see who you are
On a clear day
How it will astound you
That the glow of your being
Outshines every star
You'll feel part of every mountain, sea, and shore
You can hear
From far and near
A word you've never, never heard before
And on that clear day
On that clear day
You can see forever
And ever
And ever
And ever more
(My thanks to the songwriters and Barbra Streisand, via Some Days You’re Barbra.)

I started singing!! Always loved this song 🎶
I do love to sing & sing around the house off & on all day….start the morning singing 🎶
And, singing stimulates the vagus nerve, did you know?
“Increasing your vagal tone activates the parasympathetic nervous system, and having higher vagal tone means that your body can relax faster after stress.”
