The Saga of Prosperous Snow Continues |
Wednesday, January 4, 2017 It's amazing! Every time I begin to get depressed something comes along to brighten my day and scatter the darkness. I started out the day in a brown study and descending deeper into my normal January darkness. I even blogged about it in "War Chest Wednesday: January a Depressing Month" . Right after I finished that entry and posted it, I discovered this challenge. I listed to and song which changed my mood. I'm in a better frame of mind which helps because I have a lot more writing to do today and this week. Songs like Celebration always improve my mood. I think it's because listening to music releases endorphins, or whatever, in my brain which results in uplifting my thoughts and changing my outlook. Scattering the Darkness Don't just huddle in the darkness crying get up and find the light. Somewhere there's a party going on, somewhere people are dancing to the music, laughing and making a joyful noise in praise of surviving another year so ... don't just huddle in the darkness crying get up and find the light. Get out of your shell singing songs of praise and gratitude proclaiming to the entire planet the joyful news that you are still alive, that you have survived, that miracles occur every moment of every day if you open your eyes to see and open your lips to praise the lessons of yesterday, the miracles of today, and the successes of tomorrow. Don't just huddle in the darkness crying get up and find the light. Get up and dance like no one is watching, sing like you can carry a tune even if you're tone deaf because light and music scatter the darkness and depression long enough for your spirit to see the right trail in the road's fork. Don't just huddle in the darkness crying get up and find the light. |
