I’m posting some lyrics as sort of a precursor to a post concerning some issues in my life. Yesterday I made a post (that eventually was changed to friends only) that was me ranting about some unnamed stress in my life. The reaction came as it often does. Some very food sage advise on stress management form people who share my philosophy… an old friend reminding me that she really is a sounding board for my whimperings… and a flurry of IM’s from people who just want to check in.
All in all… it was pleasing. It of course merely provided mechanisms to reduce the internal personal angst… but I still need to deal with what is instigating the stress. I needed to look at the issue. Last night I had dinner with a great gentleman who I haven’t had a lot of time or opportunity to socialize with. We talked philosophy. Along the way he made a casual statement unrelated to everything I’m dealing with and yet it was utterly enlightening to my current situation in many ways…
So, while I figure out what I’m really trying to say…
Please note… I am in a very happy, very fulfilling relationship. These lyrics mostly fit and they are referring to things that I’m dealing with in a figurative and symbolic way. It is not meant to be taken literally.
I’m moving through some changes
I’ll never be the same
Something you did touched me
There’s no one else to blame
The love we had has fallen
The love we used to share
We’ve given up pretending
As if you didn’t care
Change changing places
Root yourself to the ground
Capitalize on this good fortune
One word can bring you round
Changes
I look into the mirror
I see no happiness
All the warmth I gave you
Has turned to emptiness
The love we had has fallen
The love we used to share
You’ve left me here believing
In love that wasn’t there
Change changing places
Root yourself to the ground
Word to the wise – well you get what’s coming
One word can bring you round
Changes
When I look into your eyes and try to find out how
There’s no way to save it now
And everything I feel
Changes
Keep looking for
Changes
Changes
For some reason you’re questioning why
I always believe it gets better
One difference between you and i
Your heart is inside your head
One word from you
One word from me
A clear design on your liberty
Who could believe when love has gone
How we move on like everyone
Only such fools
Only such jealous hearts
Only through love changes come
Change changing places
Root yourself to the ground
Capitalize on this good fortune
One word can bring you round
Changes
One road to loneliness
It’s always the same
One road to happiness
It’s calling your name
Change changing places – changes
Root yourself to the ground
Capitalize on this good fortune
One word can bring you round
Changes
Change changing places
Changes
Root yourself to the ground
Word to the wise – well you get what’s coming
One word – one word can bring you round
Changes

Wow
I figured it out! You are having a sex change operation.
I have come to believe what you are on the outside is really irrelevant. Why does it have to match up with who you are on the inside? I’m much taller on the inside, but I’ll deal with not being able to go on all carnival rides.
Whatever you decide, more power to you.
Hey…
The sounding board goes both ways with P and I… we both know that you are here for us.. now remember that yourself!
