    I just finished listening to Blowin' in the Wind by Bob Dylan...and it made me ponder the meaning behind the lyric "the answer is blowin in the wind"...

    Does he mean that the answer is forever there but forever unattainable because it will always be blowing around but out of reach

    or

    Does he mean that the answer is right there, all around us, blowing in the breeze that caresses us, and if we really wished to, we could simply reach out and grab it....but maybe we don't


    ???
    What are your thoughts?

    Maybe he meant thoughts are invisible and fluidic, and that the answers to all our questions will never be absolute, set in stone, they will always be a changin' like the times, kinda like you said.

    You may think that you're hiding your age by not having it written under your name, but threads like this pretty much announce the fact that you're youngin'.

    Oh really? And just how young does listening to Bob Dylan and thinking about his lyrics make me?

    There are no answers - only questions.
