Landslide or Yes



Oh, mirror in the sky
What is love
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can I sail thru the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life

Well, I've been afraid of changing 'cause I built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I'm getting older, too
Well I'm getting older too
.......Landslide, lyrics, Stevie Nicks


It's been a roller coaster week in some ways with family, friends and work. This song seems to express the core of some of the dilemma. Can I be bold, put love and creativity to the forefront of my life after years of putting other persons needs first?

I read an inspiring blog entry from someone who described learning to say "yes" and even had it tattooed on her arm. Can I follow her example and become bolder then I've ever been? And what am I saying yes to, that's even the harder part to figure out, a move, a stay, a new love??? Right now I'm just saying yes to be open to what comes...

This photo I took somehow seemed symbolic to trying to stay open to those dreams, yearnings and hopes. To continue being bold and believing in dreams...

So tonight, "Yes!!"

Thanks Shauna and Stevie for the inspiration....
