    This song never fails to lift my spirits.

    And I can't hear it without thinking of leaving the JW's.

    I can see clearly now the rain is gone.
    I can see all obstacles in my way.
    Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind.
    It's gonna be a bright (bright)
    bright (bright) sunshiny day.
    It's gonna be a bright (bright)
    bright (bright) sunshiny day.

    Oh, yes I can make it now the pain is gone.
    All of the bad feelings have disappeared.
    Here is that rainbow I've been praying for.
    It's gonna be a bright (bright)
    bright (bright) sunshiny day.

    (ooh...) Look all around, there's nothing but blue skies.
    Look straight ahead, there's nothing but blue skies.

    I can see clearly now the rain is gone.
    I can see all obstacles in my way.
    Here is that rainbow I've been praying for.
    It's gonna be a bright (bright)
    bright (bright) sunshiny day.
    It's gonna be a bright (bright)
    bright (bright) sunshiny day.
    It's going to be a bright (bright)
    bright (bright) sunshiny day.
    Yeah, hey, it's gonna be a bright (bright) bright (bright)
    sunshiny day.

    You used to laugh about everybody that was hanging out.

    Now you don't talk so loud. Now you don't seem so proud.

    When you ain't got nothing, you've got nothing to lose.

    You're invisible now, you've got no secrets to conceal.

    OK about the above song, it's like an "I WILL SURVIVE" for men, kinda appropriate if you are going through a DD. (D/F and divorce.)

    Leaving was a sudden, unplanned decision made during a meeting. It was nothing short of closing my eyes and taking the biggest leap in my life with no idea what I was going to do. The words to "Defying Gravity" seemed to define the exhilirating feeling of making by own decisions in life, not someone elses.

    Defying Gravity

    Something has changed within me
    Something is not the same
    I'm through with playing by the rules
    Of someone else's game
    Too late for second-guessing
    Too late to go back to sleep
    It's time to trust my instincts
    Close my eyes: and leap!
    It's time to try
    Defying gravity
    I think I'll try
    Defying gravity
    And you can't pull me down

    I'm through accepting limits
    'Cuz someone says they're so
    Some things I cannot change
    But till I try, I'll never know!
    Too long I've been afraid of
    Losing love I guess I've lost
    Well, if that's love
    It comes at much too high a cost
    !
    I'd sooner buy
    Defying gravity
    Kiss me goodbye
    I'm defying gravity
    And you can't pull me down:

    So if you care to find me
    Look to the western sky!
    As someone told me lately:
    "Ev'ryone deserves the chance to fly!"
    And if I'm flying solo
    At least I'm flying free
    To those who'd ground me
    Take a message back from me
    Tell them how I am
    Defying gravity
    I'm flying high
    Defying gravity
    And soon I'll match them in renown
    And nobody in all of Oz
    No Wizard that there is or was
    Is ever gonna bring me down!

    And the show "Wicked" is all about, who really is wicked?

    And you know..."no one mourns the wicked."
