All of us go through things we'd rather not go through. We want to run and hide but that's a temporary fix. The answer comes in the form of release from the pain. A solution to the problem standing before us, but we don't see it... yet. We travel on and keep our chin up, best we can. Some of us have friends or family that help. Some of us have the interactions we experience on a blog or web site. Some of us spend great moments soul-searching. Some of say prayers - the kind that are willing to help us... let go... let the pain, let the problem... fly.
Lea Michele, of the TV show, "Glee" has a song that speaks straight to me. Many times I want a painful moment or problem to get off of me. I let it go... because I want to fly like cannonball... a fast and definitive healing! I know I'm ready and nothing can stop me. Enjoy the song!
Blogging truly is a great vent-of
ReplyDelete- of..._____ fill in the blank. Has it's moments, Dezmond!
DeleteI've written a few blog posts that may never be published in order to try and get something off my chest.
ReplyDeleteOpen an invitation only blog. Invite people you've come to know and stuff.
DeleteI know - I know... I'm bad to dump it. But I have my joke blog and that makes me smile(smile).
Anything I can do to help?
ReplyDeleteI have huge shoulders....and 2 ears...♥️
Cheers!
Linda :o)
Aw, Linda, that is so kind of you. I know I'll end up writing about it. Just gotta think a bit more... because I know I can fly like a cannonball(smile) and be free!
DeleteGood!
DeleteYes :))
DeleteIt's awful to have a problem hanging over your head.I hope you can get out from under yours soon. For me ... as soon as I'm out, another problem crops up. :)
ReplyDeleteLexa, you're a smart woman - good head on your shoulders.
DeleteSometimes it might feel like we're dodging cannonballs(smile). Maybe I should have played Taylor Swift's song, "Shake it Off".(grin, friend)
Hey Dixie,
ReplyDeleteNice song even if it just caused me my worst nightmare scenario, Glee and X Factor US Style!
Release of pain via the cathartic release of the therapy that can be the written word.
I'm always discreetly in the background supporting others and thus, that helps me.
Cheerio, Dixie.

I imagine Lea Michelle has had a tough year, losing her fiance'. I think the song conveys a lot of hope, not just for her, but others as well. You know the steps out of darkness can be the hardest when you cannot see any light. I think her song conveys light.
DeleteThank you for visiting me today(smile).
Hi Dixie. I have never watched Glee and I don't know this lady but boy can she deliver!
ReplyDeleteI am assuming that she was a guest rather than a contestant on the show?
(By the way isn't Gary's comment, above, very nice?)
Listening to Bob Dylan's 'Tangled Up In Blue' (now resumed after breaking off to listen to Lea Michelle)

Hi Bazza. Yes, she does deliver! She was a guest, I suppose. I no longer watch the show. I found the song while traveling music land!
DeleteBob Dylan? What are you painting to "Tangled up in Blue" and where's my lucky link?
(smile)
To feel hurts, to let go is hard, to survive imperative
ReplyDeleteI so agree dah-ling!
DeleteFunny that you've tapped into one of the things that I've given much thought to recently... When we hit bottom (or what feels like might be bottom), all we want is for it to be better. I just want to be somewhere else. Somewhere better. And shoot out of here like a cannonball.
ReplyDeleteHeck, we all understand that feeling. No one wants to be stuck on the bottom. The thing is this... The bottom is a long way down and we didn't just drop 500 feet to get to this place. We made choices, inching our way down slowly and painstakingly. It had to be slow or we'd have realized we were going down instead of up. Or staying on the flat ground. You get the idea.
So, getting out of that hole isn't going to just "happen." We aren't going to go from where we are now to where we want to be in the blink of an eye. We are going to have to climb out. Inch by painstaking inch. We're going to have to make healthy choices. And there will be choices. And some will look good, but will actually pull us down instead of up. Part of the learning is recognizing those poor choices from the healthy ones. The people who make it out of the hole are the ones who want it bad enough to WORK for it.
Yes ma'am. Location, location, location!
DeleteThank you for that wonderful comment.(smile)
