soak up the sun

its ironic or maybe not, that i find lyrics to songs quite enlightening.  sheryl crow's soak up the sun, it was playing in the background on tv on muchmusic one night...
 
'its not having what you want, but wanting what you have...."
 
why is that such a struggle for most of us?  as much as this is obvious, in thought, in doesn't seem to be in action.
 
i have so much and i acknowledge this, my mind appreciates this but my actions don't. why?
 
there is such detachment from the mind to the physical.  the tie should be  a natural flow, but its not.
 
its been an amazing sunny summer...
 
soak up the sun...
 
thinking...
