I was speaking with a client today, and was reminded of one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
For you enjoyment, here are Bob Dylan and the Band, from "Planet Waves," with the life-affirming beauty and good will of "Forever Young." The link will take you to a you tube audio of the song that even has the lyrics!
And if you want to savor the lyrics before you go to hear this gem, here they are to Bob Dylan's original masterpiece,
"Forever Young"
May God bless and keep you always,
May your wishes all come true,
May you always do for others
And let others do for you.
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.
May you grow up to be righteous,
May you grow up to be true,
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you.
May you always be courageous,
Stand upright and be strong,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.
May your hands always be busy,
May your feet always be swift,
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift.
May your heart always be joyful,
May your song always be sung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.

Doesn't get much better than Bob Dylan! A lot of people used to think of him as a prophet. I've come to think of Jimi Hendrix as a prophet. Are there any astrological configurations that indicate a prophet? What say you Robert?
