Good morning!
I hope you slept well last night. :) I did - to a certain extent. Today seems to be promising. I can see sunlight streaming through our windows, and the cool breeze just blowing through. I do feel like it is going to be a nice day. Why don't we kick off this nice day with an equally nice song?
Featured song: "I Can See Clearly Now" by Jimmy Cliff [1993] (Pop-Reggae)

I don't know about you, but there is something about this song that feels uplifting for me. It makes me feel like the day is going to go well even if obstacles will eventually happen, but I think it will still be "a bright sunshinin' day."
I chose Jimmy Cliff's version, although the original song was by Johnny Nash in 1972, mainly because of the movie Cool Runnings. If you have not seen the movie, I suggest that you do. It's actually a fun movie, but most importantly it somewhat teaches those who watch it that troubles will clear up and eventually hard work pays off. Plus, Jimmy Cliff's version gives me this uplifting feeling more than Johnny Nash's version. Other artists have also done covers of this song, such as Beat Crusaders, Doyle Bramhall, Donny Osmond, Eagle-Eye Cherry, Sonny and Cher, Soul Asylum, and more.
Now why don't you sing along with me?

Lyrics:
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 sunshinin' day
It's gonna be a bright, bright sunshinin' day
Oh yes, I can make it now the pain is gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
Here is the rainbow I've been praying for
It's gonna be a bright, bright sunshinin' day
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's the rainbow I've been praying for
It's gonna be a bright, bright sunshinin' day
It's gonna be a bright, bright sunshinin' day
Real, real, real, real bright, bright sunshinin' day
Yeah, hey, it's gonna be a bright, bright sunshinin' day
I hope you all have a nice day! :)
