A Time for Silence and a Time for Rhythm
The other day I was lost in a Blah day. Right after I posted that note, I hit the road for the hour drive to see my counselor. Quite often lately, I have found I like to drive in silence since the time in the car is a good time to think. But that day I couldn’t think. So I turned on the CD Player. Currently I have a CD from Afro-Celt Sound System in there and right away when the music started and the rhythms began I had to turn it up. The day was warm, so the moonroof slid open, and the steering wheel and stick shift knob became percussion instruments and bass strings.
Amazing how getting lost in the rhythm and the melodies and sounds of life just swept the Blahs away and restored my own life’s rhythm.
Now if I only learned how to dance, but that would have made driving a bit more of a challenge.
