I woke up this morning to the sound of Debbie Reynolds singing "Good Morning" from "Singing in the Rain". I then proceeded to have a song lyric pop into my head regarding every thought I had until I just had to jump out of bed and get my thinking right. Don't get me wrong I love music but when you think about if its going to be a sunny day and you hear it as "Johnny Nash" singing "Bright Sunshiny Day", you get sidetracked in the feeling of the song and those lyrics about seeing all obstacles in your way lead to you thinking of all the tasks you must accomplish in the next fourteen hours and suddenly you start hearing Dido singing "Do You Have a Little Time", well you know its time to get up out of bed and out of your mind and into the physical world of where are my shoes, its a little chilly this morning and yes to the dog who wants to be fed and taken outside. (By the way I know the above sentence is too long and runs on and on but I just wanted to give a taste of my mental side this morning.)
I have to acknowledge my friends for song lyrics popping into my head constantly. We play this game called the "Glass Bead Game" from a book by Hesse. It is in simplified terms just an open stream of conscienceness withing a group of people who respond to statements from others without censorship. Now even when we don't actually start a game we still respond to each other with these connected thoughts with a lot of trivial knkowledge of tv, movie, song, book and sports knowledge. There is also a lot of breaking into song. I think this is one of the reasons it is hard for some people to feel comfortable when they are introduced to the group. I love my friends.
Now I am going to leave with lyrics.
Happy Trails to you!
