MORNING MUSIC


MORNING MUSIC

Waking for years to music and dancing.
then
waking for years to silence
and then the sound of the television
news
weather
commercials interspersed between reporters and anchors exchanging pleasantries while planes crash into buildings, fires tornadoes and earthquakes ravage peoples towns and murders rapes and poverty ravage their lives....
" Good Morning Rhonda!"
"Good Morning Harry!
157 lives were lost today in the worst natural tragedy ever... Now back to you in the studio for celebrity news!"
Years of leaving my house quiet so as not to thoughtlessly wake someone else.

Well, GOOD MORNING JOY!!!

Sister Hazel on my boom box and dancing and stretching and moving with 
MUSICAL MORNING ABANDON!
Time to get back in the spirit of our childlike self who moved and shook and twirled 
un selfconsciously whether there was music on or not.
Today and every day that I woke to music and movement, I thrived.
Never knew Sister Hazel before my friend  shared...but whether your current groove is Taylor Swift, Bruce Springsteen, Miranda Lambert, or Vivaldi, Let's Crank up the volume on our lives by getting up and moving what we have, as well as we are physically able.

( Who remembers the show  Sit And Be Fit?
That lady had the right idea. Oh what even a tiny bit of toe tapping can do for the soul)

Love and Peace of Mind,
Delight, and Clarity of Purpose,
to you and those you love,
JOY
