Song: The Search is Over

When I first began to enjoy music, pop and funk music was the rage but they were really not my cup of tea. I was more inclined to the sentimental songs. Although Survivor is considered more of a rock band, this song stands out in my mind. It is one of the few songs I learned by heart in my early years. I hope you enjoy the lyrics as much as I do.

The Search Is Over
by Survivor

            How can I convince you, what you see is real?
            Who am I to blame you for doubting what you feel?
            I was always reachin', you were just a girl I knew
            I took for granted the friend I have in you
         
            I was living for a dream, loving for a moment.
            Taking on the world, that was just my style
            Now I look into your eyes, I can see forever
            The search is over, you were with me all the while

            Can we last forever? Will we fall apart?
            At times it's so confusing, the questions of the heart
            You followed me through changes, and patiently you'd wait
            Till I came to my senses, through some miracle of fate

            I was living for a dream, loving for a moment
            Taking on the world, that was just my style
            Now I look into your eyes, I can see forever
            The search is over, you were with me all the while

            Now the miles stretch out behind me, loves that I have lost
            Broken hearts lie victims of the game
            Then good luck, it finally stuck like lightning from the blue
            Every highway's leading me back to you

            Now at last I hold you, now all is said and done
            The search has come full circle, our destinies are one
            So if you ever loved me, show me that you give a damn
            You'll know for certain the man I really am

            I was living for a dream, loving for a moment
            Taking on the world, that was just my style
            When I touched your hand, I could hear you whisper
            The search is over, love was right before my eyes

LED Car lights

For the life of me, I simply cannot understand why Filipino drivers have
changed their warm yellow headlights for eye-searing blue-white headlights.
I can understand if they need the extra light (fog light type) when there is
a heavy downpour or the smog is so thick that they can’t see 50 yards ahead.

But on clear nights those lights can be blinding! Every night after work, I
generally go home with eye strain and a headache because of those flashing
LED lights coming from the opposite lane. And I heard that there is a LAW
that PROHIBITS use of LEDs as headlights. WTF is happening?
