Changes

There is a point that we need to change for the better and yet we are held back by our comfort zone.  Who Moves The Cheese is a book that speaks the same thing and I am so grateful to my cousin's hubby who gave it to me.  And I just thought about it when I was reminded by many instances that I have been dragged back by so many unchangeable circumstances in the light that moving forward is the option to take.   Do not attach the changeable to the unchangeable. I have written a song that was in line with this statement as a home work in the song writing course I took in the past.  It was a song about a lost that was attached to many existing and haunting unchangeable things.  Milk is always milk.  A baby does not stay a baby.  A baby has to grow and needs to move forward and let go of the bottle.  A butterfly needs to leave the cocoon to spread the wings.  People may have thought that their cocoons are their comfort zones until they let go and find that it's much comfortable to

Too Old for a Roller Coaster Ride

I haven't ridden the roller coaster since Euro Disney of my ancient self until I rode with my son who was doing it for the first time. He tested the water first.
