The past 2 months were really tough and I am glad to be off this week. I spent the past weekend in a spa and when you are reading this I am probably on my way back home. Since I could not schedule my regular posts for this week, I wanted to enjoy some more hits of past times with you.
When I checked out the year 1979, I was surprised how many big hits it brought to life. It was not easy to only pick 5 of them (perhaps I am cheating at times, and add more songs). So let’s begin with one of my favorite hits of the 1970s to give this new week a little boost.
Born To Be Alive – Patick Hernandez
Feel free to add or mention in the comments your favorite song of 1979 and the memory that connects you with it.
In Love, Light, and Health
I have some history with this song. I was 23 when this song was released and toying with the idea of moving to Hawaii. Then I heard Born To Be Alive by Patick Hernandez and it became my mantra. I moved to Hawaii and lived there for about four years. Thanks for bringing back this memory, Erika.

Wow, this is such a cool and heart-warming memory regarding this song. I can only imagine what a special time that must have been. And how amazing that you lived in Hawaii! Thank you for sharing that memory, Robert!

When I was in my 20’s I was keenly aware of how fleeting youth is, so I wanted to have an adventure and heard ” Born to be Alive’ as an affirmation to take risks.
