GOING THROUGH CHANGES

The other day I heard a song that I haven't heard in a long time (Landslide) by Stevie Nicks. The song lyrics really resignates because its about going through changes. Its about getting older. Its about challenges of life and children getting older and leaving the nest. This song just hits home for me. You know when you are in your twenties, you don't seem to think about getting older. It seems that retirement age is so far away and it doesn't have a place in your life at the moment. At least this is the way I felt back then because I didn't think about getting older. The main thing I thought about was getting paid and buying the linen jump suit for $150.00 and of course, getting my hair done and finding the next fashion must have.

Life is full of changes and going through those changes is a big part of living. Some people are going through changes of marriage. Some people are getting married for the very first time and quickly finding out that living with another person is a big change. Some people are going through changes and challenges of a divorce. Some people are going through the empty nest syndrome and just don't know what to do with themselves because children are grown and gone. Some people are changing jobs and moving to a different location. Some people are going through changes because of illness. Some are going through life changes because of age. No matter how many plastic surgeries you've had on the outer self...The inner body will follow the path of its time clock and their is simply nothing that can stop that progression. Some are going through changes with a sick parent and they have become the parent of the parent.

Life is full of changes and the only way to meet the changes is to go through it. This is the only way to teach others because you have gone through it. We all learn from life changes and challenges because after all laws are changed because of it.

As you read this blog, please click on the first Stevie Nicks song "Landslide" and just listen to the lyrics. Its funny that when I was in my twenties, I didn't really listen to the words of a song because I only cared about the beat...Now, I really listen to the lyrics.

    I have to admit in my teens and twenties I was a huge Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Nicks fan! "landslide" is my all time favorite song! I like your post. These past weeks have created some great challenges for me and my life. It's been tough but I always look for tomorrow. I listen to the song you mentioned and it always reminds me of how I have grown and matured as a person. Take care. Thanks for sharing.
