The "Fish Islands"

Today the radio stations have been playing all kinds of music by the band Rush (in honor of drummer Neil Peart, who passed away Jan 7, 2020).

For years, I had misheard the lyrics to one of the most famous Rush songs, "Limelight".

The line "Living in a fish-eye lens" always sounded like "Living in the fish islands".

The concept of "The Fish Islands" always conjured up images of a beautiful sparkling sea full of fish, and countless islands begging to be explored.

"Limelight" also contains one of my favorite lyrics, and new life philosophies:

"One must put up barriers to keep oneself intact".
