Lifetime

by Katharine McPhee

objects in mirror are closer than they appear

The safety warning is there.
I know that.  I feel sadness and it is closing in on me, but I have hope that soon, I will be on the mend. I will perk back up.

You know, a funny thing. I'm in a dark place lately, trying not to be, and decide until now, not to post about it.
I kept thinking of the phrase,  "Objects in the mirror..." so while googling, I found singer "Meatloaf", has a song from the "Bat Out of Hell" album, titled "Objects in the Rear View Mirror May Appear Closer than They Are". Listening to this song, I can relate. My situations are very different, however I feel the song.

Some of the terrors are still intact"

For me, although sadness is enveloping me, I know that hope is approaching, its slowing catching up to me, getting ready to catch me and heal me.
I won't give up, I won't let despair win. I know I have so much to be grateful & happy for.
Believe me, I know I am Blessed. However, some things, can't change just because you want them to. Some things are deeper than that.

I am a work in progress.

Sometimes, like a domino effect, it's hard to stand, when so much is pushing you down.  My need to feel adequate, and my inability to feel I am enough, get overwhelming when too much is happening at once.

Like a Blog buddy's Blog title, "Some Days are Diamonds"... and some days aren't.

Love American Style

Are you old enough to remember the very hip comedy anthology "Love American Style"? It aired between 1969 and 1974. I remember well, having sleep overs or being at a sleep over on Friday nights watching this along with The Partridge Family. The two coolest shows at that time of my pre-teen to early teen years.

Love American Style would have a revolving cast of celebrities doing skits or short stories of romance and comedy. It was somewhat racy I remember, then again I was young and the mere thought of sex was taboo.

The Love Boat followed suit with the same concept a few years later.

What brought me to think about this tonight is a rather familiar sight.

Hubby & I heard a series of pops or booms. Further investigating, stepping outside where the sound was coming from, I caught sight of fireworks in the sky on this pleasant evening. But, rather than a regular kind of firework, they were beautiful red heart shape fireworks. Something I have never seen in person. It was something out of the movies. We were able to see five or six, along with a few other neighbors stepping out to get a look. I wish I caught it on film, but did not. I am sure it will stay with me though.  I wonder if this was for a wedding, an anniversary or even a proposal. I did find a similar one on YouTube. Click HERE
How very sweet.
It reminded me so much my romantic comedy Love American Style♥

I miss fun television like these cheesy shows. Maybe I need to go rent a few!
