I've been processing a lot lately , and feeling good about it. But this afternoon and evening I've had a song in my head that won't go away . A musician friend calls these ear worms - they get in your ear and live there.

Sometimes mine get really annoying , and I've found that if I go work on a tune ( fiddle ) it goes away faster. But this was a song, with words. I laughed when I sang it out loud , because the lyrics were so telling . Remember the Monkees? It was Giant Step - here's part of the lyrics, " remember the feeling as a child, when you woke up and morning smiled, its time you felt like that again. There is no percentage in remembering the past, it's time to learn to live again at last . Come with me , leave yesterday behind , and take a giant step outside your mind."

Minds are wonderful, scary things. From now on I might think of the ear worms as a sound track for the drama in my life.
