      Absolute truth. I'm 1 year from my 40th birthday, and all I hear is this verse. It sums up a lot of my life. Funny how it took me this many years to learn it.
      "As the years rolled slowly past
      And I found myself alone
      Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends
      I found myself further and further from my home
      And I guess I lost my way
      There were oh so many roads
      I was living to run and running to live
      Never worried about paying or even how much I owed"
      Funny what age and introspection will deliver.

      Lauren Anon ; the book says a man matures at 60 yrs young. You will live to 120. Let’s get after it. Opportunity & Free Enterprise is the lessor road traveled.
      Entitlement & dependency is a shaky ground.

    When i was 10 years old, my dad used to play this song a lot, it was always on the radio in the car...He would tell me how this song is very meaningful and was special to him. To me, it was just a song with good time and nice sounds, never really listening to the words. Today, as a 40 year old man, this song resonates, strums a chord in my inner being. I sometimes wonder, if what i feel when i hear this song, is what he felt too, 30 years ago.?. Unfortunately, we never developed that closeness that would allow us to discuss these inner feelings...Miss you Dad, wish things were different...would have been nice to know how you really feel.

    ''Against the Wind'' gives me goosebumps. Captured my life in a song. Screwed around in college (my first degree) and took a long time to finish, found a sweet girlfriend who could have been my wife but I fooled around. We broke up, I had several failed relationships, drifted from one job to another. After a decade or so I got married but it was a failure of epic proportion. Got estranged from her, took my second degree (and took my education seriously) and graduated. Found another sweet girl but I'm not running around this time, preparing for the future. I'm older now but still running against the wind.

Almost every day a soldier, sailor, airman, or marine commits suicide and military leaders basically look the other way because they know unit toxicity is the primary factor, and the media doesn't CONSISTENTLY report it so nothing ever changes, so its a constant fight for those who see the battle for what it is

    At 18 years of age I ran hard and fast against the wind working in the trades as a Laborer. When I turned age 33 I had a life changing back injury, and after being able to walk again I still ran against the wind but I used wind breaks as much as I could. Now at age 62 next week I watch the wind speed and when it dies down to a acceptable level I jog briskly and get lots done! Experience matters, cunning and craftyness matters, but knowing WHEN to run and when NOT to run against the wind is what matters the most! Great song.

Perhaps it's still too fresh, but as much as I love this song (especially now), I can't stop the tears when I hear it. Much love and heartfelt prayers to all who've lost a loved one. I have to believe time will temper that horrible ache in our chests.

Everything he taught me, the compassion, and living with your heart on your sleeve he lived a great life but taken to too soon 😞 it still feels like yesterday!

    Man, this song is my life story. The one that got away when I was younger, followed by an amazing career flying all over the globe, followed by the realization that everyone around me was phony and certainly didn’t have my best interests at heart. The only difference is that my drifter’s days are still not over as my career is still going strong in my 50’s now, and I’m still all over the world, but eventually, they will be over and I will live the final verse of this song. My only hope is that I find that shelter against the wind, which to me, means the love of a good woman. Here’s to hope. I wonder where I will be in 10 years? Perhaps retired, perhaps with the “one”.

    Seems like yesterday
    But it was long ago
    Janey was lovely she was the queen of my nights
    There in darkness with the radio playin low
    And the secrets that we shared, mountains that we moved
    Caught like a wildfire out of control
    Til there was nothin left to burn and nothin left to prove
    And I remember what she said to me
    How she swore that it never would end
    I remember how she held me oh so tight
    Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then
    Against the wind
    We were runnin against the wind
    We were young and strong we were runnin against the wind
    And the years rolled slowly past
    And I found myself alone
    Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends
    Found myself further and further from my home and I
    Guess I lost my way
    There were oh so many roads
    I was livin to run and runnin to live
    Never worried about payin or even how much I owe
    Movin' eight miles a minute and for months at a time
    Breakin all of the rules that would bend
    I began to find myself searchin
    Searchin for shelter again and again
    Against the wind
    Little somethin against the wind
    I found myself seekin shelter against the wind
    Well those drifters days are past me now
    I've got so much more to think about
    Deadlines and commitments
    What to leave in, what to leave out
    Against the wind
    I'm still runnin against the wind
    I'm older now but still runnin against the wind
    Well I'm older now but still runnin against the wind
    Against the wind
    Against the wind
    Still runnin
    Against the wind
    Against the wind
    Against the wind...

    “Wish I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then”, & “Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends” are the best lines and more appreciated as you get older.
