I haven’t posted a full written post in a while. Why? As the seasons change around us sometimes it is more than the weather or the geographical location. It can also be seasons of the heart. A transition in our lives. It can be a move or a job or a family situation or a loss. It can always be for the good no matter how easy and joyful or how hard and painful it may be – with the right perspective. I have always been a person who can take a step back and look at my life and try to see the good – that is after I freak out and stomp my feet and cry or yell, LOL. And I have to say that every season change has turned out for my good. Sometimes the good takes a little longer to come around in full view. That’s OK, where am I going in such a hurry?
Where I physically live is a place of four distinct seasons. I like that because I like variety. It is definitely my spice of life. So back to the blogging. I’ve been told to “find my target audience”. Huh? I look at the wonderful few followers I have and they are a variety. So how do I find my target? I love to talk about a variety of things. Who is my target? I guess I have something for almost everyone??? As I write these words I feel quite happy with myself (pat on the back). I really do love variety in my life and get incredibly bored and irritable when things don’t change from time to time. So until I have a blazing revelation as to my topics and audience I’m afraid you are stuck with my variety show.
So, for the Friday song of the week – I present Autamata – Out of This. Like most art I think the song will speak to each of you in a different way. May you get the words and melody that you need at this moment. May it bring Hope to you and encouragement with the season you are in right now.
Enjoy!

I will confront you at last you dreaded empty
When I met you in others I fell in love
From the cradle, to the bottle, to the needle to the bed
We all need something to deliver us from dread
But I believe in truth
Out of this noise, here comes the stillness
Out of this chaos, here comes the order
Out of this language, out of this language
Out of these words
And a hollow man leaves you empty-handed
With fingers carved from Asian ivory
From the cradle, to the treadmill, to the rocker, to the last sigh
Some are made happy when something dies
Out of this noise, here comes the stillness
Out of this chaos, here comes the order
Out of this language, out of this language
Out of these words
Shitsujo, seijaku, shinjitsu
Shitsujo, seijaku, shinjitsu, shinjitsu
Out of patience, out of deed
Out of courage, out of me
Out of reason, out of truth
Out of conscience, out of you
Konran kara shitsujo ga umare
Soon kara seijaku ga umareru
Shinjitsu wa ai o umu
Out of this…
